The AN/TPY-2 Surveillance Transportable Radar is a long-range, high-altitude X-band surveillance radar designed to detect, classify, track, and intercept ballistic missiles. It has a range of 2,900 miles and operates in two modes: one to detect rising ballistic missiles and another to guide interceptors toward descending warheads. The radar uses X-band frequency and a digital antenna array to improve target resolution and can be used in conjunction with other missile defense systems such as THAAD and Patriot. The AN/TPY-2 has been deployed in various locations including Japan, Alaska, and Israel, and is used to collect strategic-level information on missile developments and provide early warning of incoming warheads.learn more on wikipedia
