RFA Argus at A&P Falmouth

Photographs © John H. Luxton 2006

It isn't very often that one gets the opportunity to photograph a ship's radar unit being refitted to the mainmast. Fortunately I just happened to arrive at the lay-by on Pendennis Drive which over looks A&P Falmouth at just the right time on October 27, 2006 to capture the fitting of the radar to RFA ARGUS undergoing refit in the Cornish ship yard.
