Siem Island could be one of the military purposes No. 1 of Russia on American Earth, writes The Drive.
“Siem Island may have been one of the goals No. 1 on American land during a full-scale conflict with such a state as China or Russia,” the publication says.
American edition calls this island, which is part of the Aleutian archipelago, the nearest US reference point in relation to the eastern flank of Russia, where there is a radar An / FPS-108 Cobra Dane, which is tracking, in particular, atmosphere on Kamchatka and Kurilah.
The Drive notes that, in addition to the radar, there is a long runway and a developed aviation infrastructure that makes the island “an extremely important region that is worth protecting.”
The publication assumes that the case of the War of Shemen will be the goal for the winged and ballistic missiles. Also, the seizure of the island is not excluded while maintaining its infrastructure, which can be used by the enemy for their own purposes.
In July, the head of the Northern Command of the US Armed Forces General Glen Wang Herk declared the intention of the American military to place on Alaska anti-flashes of a new generation.
