In 1943 during [World War II](/source/World_War_II), the [RAAF](/source/RAAF) built a [radar station](/source/radar_station) at Mutee Head, known as RAAF 52 Radar Station. It closed in September 1945 and the buildings were given to the people of [Saibai Island](/source/Saibai_Island). It is historically significant as it is the only Queensland radar station with its radar tower and aerial still intact and in situ.<ref>{{Cite web |date=2014-06-30 |title=RAAF 52 Radar Station |url=https://www.ww2places.qld.gov.au/place?id=788 |access-date=2024-04-04 |website=Queensland WWII Historic Places |publisher=Queensland Government |archive-date=18 March 2024 |archive-url=https://web.archive.org/web/20240318144142/https://www.ww2places.qld.gov.au/place?id=788 |url-status=live }}</ref>
