Mount Kent
Mount Kent is a mountain on East Falkland, Falkland Islands.[1]
It is located north of Mount Challenger and saw action during the Falklands War during the Battle of Mount Harriet. Some of the area is still mined.
The mountain's top is occupied by the RRH Mount Kent (Remote Radar Head Mount Kent) of the British Forces South Atlantic Islands (BFSAI),[2] part of an early warning and airspace control network including also RRH Mount Alice and RRH Byron Heights on West Falkland.
