78. Q5
• According to UK Ministry of Food,this ‘belief’ was responsible for British Air Force managing to gun down
German Aircraft during WWII !
• Decades later rumors swirled that the British Royal Air Force pushed that message as a cover-up for the
recently adopted radar technology they were secretly relying on for their nighttime skirmishes. Information
from the de Havilland Aircraft Museum suggests that subterfuge was indeed the British Ministry of
Information’s plan. But Bryan Legate, assistant curator at the Royal Air Force Museum in London has a
different view. “I would say that whilst the [British] Air Ministry were happy to go along with the story , they
never set out to use it to fool the Germans,” Legate says. “The German intelligence service were well aware
of our ground-based radar installation and would not be surprised by the existence of radar in aircraft. In
fact, the RAF were able to confirm the existence of German airborne radar simply by fitting commercial
radios into a bomber and flying over France listening to the various radio frequencies!” he adds.
