The Key to Cold War Intelligence Gathering: Space Surveillance*Steve Weintz* *Cold War, Space* Without overflights, America was suddenly blind to a quarter of the Earth's surface, home to armies, bombers, missiles, and nuclear weapons ready for war. *Here's What You Need to Remember: * As the Cold War settled into a deadly balancing act after the Korean Armistice, the Soviet Union's hostile opacity coupled with its sheer size and remoteness presented a terrific challenge to American military planners and intelligence agencies. Conventional aerial reconnaissance over the USSR proved too costly in blood and equipment. During the 1950s, engi... read more

This can make it difficult for a radar system to track a target. But the LTAMDS is engineered to operate with much greater sensitivity, improved range and ability to track smaller, faster-moving targets. Advanced countermeasures, maneuverabl... read more
