❗️⚡️The protective dome has been removed from the American SBX-1 sea-based missile-defense radar, which periodically operates near the Hawaiian archipelago while it is undergoing maintenance at Pearl Harbor, allowing everyone to see what is installed inside.

It appears that this structure can rotate in both the horizontal and vertical planes.

Key technical specifications:
— Length: 116 m
— Height: 85 m from keel to the top of the radar dome
— Draft: about 10 m in transit configuration, 30 m when deployed
— Stability: vertical deviation no more than 10 degrees (fully passive stabilization)
— Antenna type: solid-state AESA
— Detection range for a target with RCS = 1 m²: up to 4,900 km
— Detection range for RCS = 0.01 m²: up to 1,479 km
— Azimuth sector with AESA array slewing: 270 degrees
— Elevation sector: 0–85 degrees (software-limited to 0–80 degrees)
— Number of T/R modules: 45,000 units
— Platform displacement: 50,000 tons
— Power plant: six 12-cylinder Caterpillar diesel generators, each rated at 3.6 MW
— Generators located in two separate compartments on port and starboard sides
— Crew: 75–85 people, mostly civilian specialists

This surface-based radar system can provide targeting data for exo-atmospheric missile interceptors such as THAAD, SM-3 Block IB/IIA, and ARROW-3, as well as endo-atmospheric interceptors like SM-6 Dual II and ARROW-2. The SBX-1 radar complex is technically capable of detecting IRBM/ICBM types such as “Oreshnik” and “Topol-M” during their boost phase over Belarus while the radar is positioned in the North Atlantic near Greenland. Its primary deployment region, however, is the Asia-Pacific, where the SBX-1 is intended to detect Chinese ICBMs and hypersonic glide vehicles with extremely small radar cross-sections.

Benjamin Espen reviews The Wise of Heart.

"When it comes to the two sides, I was impressed by Schantz' version of gender affirmation theory, put into the mouth of the prosecuting attorney just like William Jennings Bryan's defense of biblical interpretation on the witness stand. Like a medieval disputation, Schantz gave the side he clearly does not agree with the chance to make its best argument.

"That Schantz' rhetorical opponents are not interested in returning the favor was vividly illustrated by Kickstarter shutting down the crowdfunding campaign originally intended to publish this book. Schantz was able to find an alternative platform, but [the] way in which real life rhymes with fiction here is eerie.

"This was an great book, both thought-provoking and interesting to read. The illustrations are top-notch as well. I'm happy to recommend it."

To be honest, the tale from Myths & Legends that precedes this one is actually my favorite from the second volume of the Castalia Junior Classics. But since the story of King Robert of Sicily is too long to post here, we’ll go with this retelling of the central legend of the Confederation Helvetica instead, […]

"For years, doctors have been taught that high cholesterol causes heart attacks. They’ve passed the warning along to their patients, and most of us have believed them.

"But that idea came from one man: Ancel Keys.

"Keys cherry-picked data to make fat and cholesterol look deadly while ignoring the real culprit: sugar.

"John Yudkin tried to warn the world that sugar—not fat—was driving heart disease. But no one listened. He was ridiculed, silenced, and erased from history."

James chats to his Canadian friend, journalist and photographer Donna Laframboise, a veteran of the climate wars, about her latest book Thank You Truckers. It’s a series of very moving interviews with people who took part in the Freedom Convoy protests of January 2022. Don’t write off Canada! They’re not all cucked. Some of them have given their all to fight the President Bieber/Carney tyranny - and a lot of them are Christians.
Thank You, Truckers!
