A radar in the Czech. R., FBX in Israel, and now a THAAD in the UAE. .

I wonder if one of the conditions of the sale would be “radar must be tied into US network”. Wouldn’t hurt the UAE and would just make the US’s overall picture all the better. They’re buying four 😮 radars – three to deploy and a backup.

Of course, but according to some people the strategic balance is changing with these radars and their associated 5,000 interceptor missiles :p

The way they’re reacting you’d think it was 5000 wouldn’t you? 😉

Forgive me for hijacking this thread, but now that a 3rd series of Radars will be deployed…..

Well, lets just say this clip sums up the situation:
