Raytheon to supply new radar system - TW
The US Defense Department said on Thursday that it would supply Taiwan with key elements of a missile and air defense capability, a move aimed at defusing the threat from China.
Raytheon Co won a US Air Force contract worth up to US$752 million to supply the Early Warning Surveillance Radar by September 2009, the Pentagon said.

The system will let Taiwan's air force detect and track long- and short-range ballistic missiles, cruise missiles, enemy aircraft and surface ships with "no doubt" reliability, said Raytheon, based in Waltham, Massachusetts.
