I'm not a modder but if I can help someone. I think, it's possible, use a bunker (reskinned) and find an object like the radar.

I agree that the game is sorely in need of some different models of various radar units. This isn't a subject that I am particularly well read in, however the model you showed as an example does not ring my historical bell.
We need radar towers like British Home chain (is this the right name?),
German Himmelbit, Wuerzeburg D , Wurzeburg Reise, Wasserman, and Freya. Each type is distinct in size, shape and technical proficiencies. Some are towers some are dishes. Sorry if my spelling of the German is errant.
As this link is about radar, and there are nightfighters in the model shop now, I'd like to throw out the "Who's going to develp a proper mechanism for radar guided intercepts?" noose. I know it will require a lot of work, but I would think you modders would find the temptation of building, modelling software and skinning airborne radar and adding the radar operator station in some aircraft a challenging proposition - not to mention the incorporatin of the mechanisms for translating the aircraft game positional data - however it is coded - into compass and altimeter directions, and then making the slot and wav files for the ground controller's audio directions. fun fun fun!
Oh and how about the effects of Window for you Whimpey and Lanc pilots to be out there?

Very interesting topic indeed.

Oh and Mossie Pathfinder marker flares!

ps if anyone wants to read a very solid and informative book with the Luftwaffe application of these devices, as well as a great section on the FlaK Arm of the Luftwaffe, try :
"The 1939-1945 Luftwaffe Handbook" by Alfred Price

I could make you radar objects but no radar interface/help. Use the Tower/Give Vector To Target/Give Vector To Base.
