National Radar Service
National Airspace Surveillance and DetectionDescription
The National Radar Service tracks aircraft and UAV activity across Russian airspace, including Kaliningrad. It supplies detection data to leadership during crises. In the Oval Office standoff over a crashed U.S. reconnaissance drone, the service reports no American UAVs in the zone, delivering technical proof that bolsters Russia's denial and fuels Bartlet's negotiations with Chigornin.
