The US strategic Early Warning Radar system to monitor the threat of ballistic missile thermonuclear attack is plagued by a lack of spare parts, outdated technology, much more maintenance work than anticipated and other problems, the Pentagon Inspector General admitted in a public statement about a highly classified report.
"We found that Space Force took actions to sustain the Upgraded Early Warning Radar, but that a lack of spare parts, obsolescence, unscheduled system maintenance, and delayed modernization continue to be a problem," the DOD IG acknowledged on a single, brief X statement.
The DOD IG carried out an investigation and produced a report a entited “Evaluation of Sustaining Engineering Actions for the Space Force’s Upgraded Early Warning Radar,” the office explained.
"The objective of this evaluation was to determine the extent to which the Space Force implemented sustaining engineering actions to ensure that the Upgraded Early Warning Radar (UEWR) was capable, reliable, and available to meet mission requirements while managing risks," the DOD IG said.

Israeli cabinet approves continued military control over Gaza-Egypt border
The Israeli Security Cabinet has voted in favor of the continued presence of the Israel Defense Forces on the Gaza-Egypt border as part of a potential agreement with the Hamas on the release of hostages and a ceasefire, Israeli newspaper Haaretz reported on Friday.
Eight ministers agreed on maintaining Israeli military control along the Philadelphi Corridor, the newspaper reported. However, Defense Minister Yoav Galant opposed the move and National Security Minister Itamar Ben-Gvir abstained.
Israel's demand to maintain control of the Gaza-Egypt border is a major stumbling block in reaching a peace settlement in Gaza. Israeli authorities believe that if they withdraw the IDF, Hamas would be able to quickly rebuild its military capabilities and regain some of its strength.
Israeli Prime Minister Benjamin Netanyahu has repeatedly said that the IDF would remain in the Philadelphi Corridor to prevent reported weapons deliveries to Hamas. The Egyptian government officially rejects the idea of the IDF controlling the border, saying it would violate the 1979 peace treaty between Israel and Egypt.
