  • The AN/FPS-108 COBRA DANE radar, which sits at the Alaskan border, is a single faced ground-based, L-band phased-array radar located at Eareckson Air Station, Shemya, Alaska. The primary mission of COBRA DANE, which belongs to Peterson AFB: 21st Space Wing, is to collect radar metric and signature data on foreign ballistic missile events. Additional missions include collecting space surveillance data on new foreign launches and satellites in low-earth orbit. The radar has a 95-foot diameter phased array and the capability to track and record data on as many as 120 objects simultaneously.

      Cobra Dane is not primarily an "early warning" radar. Its an intelligence-gather system used to monitor missile test flights and nuclear test blast detection.

      This gives immediate feedback and can guide weapons systems. Satellites are nice, but take a while to get exactly what you want, can have plenty of things that mess up their vision, and are... if you didn’t know... expensive as fuck. So yeah, radar is very nice to have
