ARI.5645 – AI.Mk.VIIIB air-search/interception radar with Lucero Mk.II interrogator

Are you sure it's not part of the previous equipment ARI.5608 "Liquid Lunch"?

(Interesting codename = pint of beer (or several)! possibly from the team that came up with "Village Inn" and "Boozer"?

Hmm... after more research possibly not (from http://air-ministry.uk/ari.htm ):

ARI 5608 Liquid Lunch
Receiver R3588

ARI 5645 Lucero II
Transmitter-Receiver TR3566
Power unit type 532
Receiving unit type 161
Switch unit type 115
transmitter unit type 105
Waveform generator type 3C
Control unit type 222A

"Liquid Lunch" was apparently an IFF transponder to indicate "I'm Friendly" to the "Village Inn" Automatic Gun Laying Turret radar.
