Army North commander: U.S. needs to detect cruise missiles from further away

摘要

The United States needs to ensure that potential cruise missiles attacking the homeland can be spotted from further distances, the commander of U.S. Army North said Wednesday, advocating for a system that would help the Pentagon achieve that goal. Speaking at a breakfast with reporters, Lt. Gen. Jeffrey Buchanan said cruise missiles concern him because they are moving too quickly to be able to employ the Pentagon's full range of responses that could be mobilized in other situations.
