U.S. moves up deployment of X-band radar in Japan
 The United States has stepped up its schedule to begin operating its military mobile X-band radar system in northeastern Japan to monitor missile activities in neighboring North Korea and China. X-band radar is an advanced new surveillance system designed to detect and track ballistic missiles. A test-run of the system is to begin this week at the Japanese Air Self-Defense Force's Shariki base in Tsugaru.Posted by: Anonymoose 2006-07-03 |
