Book excerpt: This is a fascinating survey and detailed history of NORAD, the North American Aerospace Defense Command. With the beginning of the Cold War, American defense experts and political leaders began planning and implementing a defensive air shield, which they believed was necessary to defend against a possible attack by long-range, manned Soviet bombers. By the time of its creation in 1947, as a separate service, it was widely acknowledged the Air Force would be the center point of this defensive effort. Under the auspices of the Air Defense Command (ADC), first created in 1948, and reconstituted in 1951 at Ent AFB, Colorado, subordinate Air Force commands were given responsibility to protect the various regions of the United States. By 1954, as concerns about Soviet capabilities became more grave, a multi-service unified command was created, involving Naval, Army, and Air Force units--the Continental Air Defense Command (CONAD). Air Force leaders, most notably Generals Benjamin Chidlaw and Earle Partridge, guided the planning and programs during the mid-1950s. The Air Force provided the interceptor aircraft and planned the upgrades needed over the years. The Air Force also developed and operated the extensive early warning radar sites and systems which acted as "trip wire" against air attack. The advance warning systems and communication requirements to provide the alert time needed, as well as command and control of forces, became primarily an Air Force contribution, a trend which continued into the future as the nation's aerospace defense matured.History of the North American Aerospace Defense Command * Key Historical Events * Lineage and Honors * NORAD Emblem * Commanders * Deputy Commanders * Headquarters Locations * Area of Operations * NORAD Aircraft * Associated Unit

Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: The North American Aerospace Defense Command (NORAD) was established as a result of an agreement between Canada and the United States to defend against increasing Soviet military capabilities. In the early years of World War II, the leaders of the United States and Canada agreed to military cooperation, thus beginning strong defense relations still evident today. Military and civilian personnel from both countries work together for the defense of North America. Established as a formal military command in 1958, NORAD has been headquartered in Colorado Springs since its inception. In the late 1950s, a decision was made to move the Continental Air Defense Command combat operations center to an underground facility to provide a secure and hardened location for air defense operations. After several locations were evaluated, Cheyenne Mountain, south of Colorado Springs, Colorado, was chosen for the new command center. In operation since 1966, Cheyenne Mountain Air Force Station continues to be America's fortress.

Download or read book Kincheloe written by Monte Quist and published by Covenant Books, Inc.. This book was released on 2021-10-29 with total page 122 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Based on real events, the story begins during the Cold War era, with the Cuban Missile Crisis and the Northern Air Defense Command (known as NORAD), the primary deterrent to a Russian bomber attack. Sabotage nearly disables NORAD. One man, Marty, discovers the sabotage and restores NORAD, possibly preventing World War III. The second part of the story is about the Mideast war and ISIS, the known terrorist radical Muslim outlaw army. ISIS arose in a part of the world that was a center of enormous oil-based wealth. Despite the increased efforts of those who opposed ISIS, the outlaw army did not fail. ISIS then did the unthinkable and shoot down a civilian Russian airliner with a super weapon. Two Fighters, one Russian and the other American, are also shot down by the ISIS super weapon. The two pilots meet, hide in a cave, and, risking their lives, find vital information about the ISIS weapon. This information allowed Russian and US forces to find and capture the ISIS weapon. The free world comes together and eliminates ISIS and other rogue religious radicals. The two pilots become lifelong friends and, allowed by their governments, tour the free world. With the true story of the Cuban Missile Crisis, they find and introduce to each other the major players of both the Russian and the American sides of the missile crisis.

Download or read book NORAD written by Andrea Charron and published by McGill-Queen's Press - MQUP. This book was released on 2022-11-15 with total page 144 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: The North American Aerospace Defense Command (NORAD) has undergone wide-ranging changes since 2006, when it was given a new maritime warning mission and the NORAD Agreement was signed in perpetuity. Andrea Charron and James Fergusson trace NORAD’s recent history, marked by innovations in technology and in command and control, but also by unprecedented threats. The shared defence of North America remains an important issue that should extend to other areas, such as the joint defence of the maritime and cyber domains. Fuelled by a deep curiosity about the command and its decisions made in the face of inevitable geopolitical and technological changes, this book uses a functional lens to evaluate NORAD’s options and the technological and organizational solutions needed to defend North America. The authors investigate the ways in which the NORAD command might adapt in the future as it struggles to modernize and keep ahead of new threats. This book comes at a critical time. The rise of new peer competitors requires a fundamental reconsideration of North American defence. As one of very few contemporary analyses of the command and its future, NORAD will be a vital tool for scholars and practitioners.
