There are components there from long after WWII, so it's something made mostly from surplus bits including the case.

In the early 50s various WWII 'indicator units' got made into black-and-green TVs. But there are bits which post-date that era. Few people made homebrew radar sets, so my money's on an oscilloscope.

Unfortunately, while you did close-ups of several areas, the tube base wasn't one of them.
