Later SLC radar and GL radar for the HAA guns became more widely available. Towards the end of 1941 the lights in Northern Ireland were redeployed singly to form a 'killer belt' primarily to assist night-fighters. This system required fewer lights, and in November 1941 AA Command decided that 91st S/L Rgt would be converted to the LAA gun role as

The 79th (HY) AA Rgt group continued to defend the Le Havre area while the Seine ferries were still in use. By now Le Havre was under continuous bombing attacks and threatened by land: 307 AA Coy provided a detachment armed with light machine-guns and anti-tank rifles to reinforce the land defences.

On arrival in
England the evacuated AA troops were sent to various AA training camps to reform, and 3 AA Bde HQ returned to Northern Ireland. Because most of the SR units had been sent to join the BEF, Belfast was defended by only seven heavy AA guns by 11 July. In June 1940 those AA regiments
