Information
has glosseng: Cobra Mist was the codename for an Anglo-American experimental over-the-horizon radar station at Orford Ness, Suffolk, England. It was known technically as AN/FPS-95, and sometimes referred to as System 441a, a reference to the project as a whole. Cobra Mist was part of a small number of "Cobra" long-range surveillance radars operated by the U.S. The project was plagued by noise problems that could not be identified, and the project was shut down in 1973. The site and buildings are now occupied by a broadcast transmitter for the BBC World Service.
