Advanced Early Warning Missile Detection SBX Radar has already been deployed at Pearl Harbor.

Sea-Based X-Band SBX Radar, located at Pearl Harbor, is the tracking and discrimination radar used for the Ground Based Midcourse Defense (GMD) system. SBX consists of a large X-Band half-populated radar mounted on a modified fifth-generation semi-submersible platform with Battle Management Command Control and Communications, which includes In-flight Interceptor Communication System Data Terminals and associated communications sytems.

SBX Radar has frequently been associated with Star War Technology. Pearl Harbor SBX Radar is a military defense system for the USAF and Homeland Security.

  • All the criticism of 'Star Wars' military projects, Early detection networks aren't discussed much. These systems can do more than just sound the incoming alarm... they can give an active 'map' on what's out there and where its going. Tie this into a quick command structure with the necessary interceptors... you can reduce, and ultimate eliminate 'surprise attacks' from missiles and aircraft. This is far more desirable that retaliatory or pre-emptive striking. Remote sensing is peaceful.
