MoD Sealand

MoD Sealand is a Ministry of Defence installation in Flintshire, north Wales. The site is the former RAF Sealand.

Current use
The Electronics Business Unit of the Defence Support Group (DSG) occupies part of the original Sealand site since the closure of the RAF station in 2006. The business unit is responsible for the repair and maintenance of Avionic equipment and operates as part of a Trading Fund of the Ministry of Defence.

The MOD has contemplated using the site for several purposes, one of the most controversial of which was the idea to turn RAF Sealand into an emergency prison to cope with overcrowded prisons in England and Wales.

Sealand's ranges are still used for shooting, where cadets from different services come to either compete or practice shooting.
