| Description | The U.S. military is positioning more missile defenses around Hawai'i as a precaution against a possible North Korean launch across the Pacific, Defense Secretary Robert Gates said.
Ground-based long-range missile interceptors at Fort Greely in Alaska and Vandenberg Air Force Base in California would provide primary protection for Hawai'i, with the Terminal High Altitude Area Defense system offering additional missile intercept capability from the Pacific Missile Range Facility on Kaua'i. |
