The US administration asked Congress about $ 100 million in 2019 for the construction of two new missile defense radars in the US, reports RIA News report from the director of operations of the ABM Agency Gary Pennett.



We have requested funding for two radars in the United States that will allow us to track and make the necessary assessments to protect the country from long-range missiles,
Pennett told reporters.

According to him, one of the radar will be erected in Hawaii, the other - on the Pacific coast of the United States.

In addition, within the framework of the budget request, the government asked to allocate funds for the construction of 37 missile defense systems "Aegis" in Romania and Poland.

As part of the draft budget for the 2019 fiscal year, we requested 1,8 a billion dollars for the Aegis BMD system. The Missile Defense Agency will provide the Aegis SM-37 3 systems at sites in Romania and Poland, as well as on ships along the respective coasts,
reported pennett.

Recall, on Monday, the US administration submitted to the congress a draft budget for the 2019 fiscal year, which begins on October 1 of the year 2018.

      Yes, but they will cover our Pacific Ocean coast.

      Here we are directly concerned, in the Crimea there isn’t like Iskander. The General Staff would have to rub the turnip. True, there are several Bastion complexes in the Crimea, but this is an anti-ship complex. Although in Syria rockets were launched from it and into bunkers. hi

          Not only...
          Here he is in Donetsk ...In 2005, just seven months after he became a senator, Obama, along with Indiana Republican Senator Dick Lugar, went to Ukraine to check on the surplus stockpiles of weapons.


          Here he is in Perm ...

    There probably hasn’t been a place left on the World map (except for Russia, the PRC, and DPRK) where the United States base, American missile defense systems, some kind of radar, or just American weapons would not have stood. And all the same, "it will not be enough" ... Well, well.

    They also have gaps in the SPRN. Given China’s growing capabilities, the move is quite expected.
