A couple of points of reference, the radar mounted on US Aegis cruisers can put out 4 MWs and the stationary Cobra Dane early warning radar that went online in 1977 puts out 15.4 MW.
I highly doubt that is 4 and 15.4MW in CW. Only doppler radars use CW, and those are hardly used for air and surface search.

Probably power-failure.
