that was mentioned and discussed here a week ago.
The difference is that the back story is leaking out.
SBX and the other Air Force radars are too easy targets in the big
game. *The navy needs a ship that can go fleet speeds while mounting a
radar that powerful.

Won't happen. You know how big those RADARs are? Hint: its on an oil
rig. Hide that in the open sea. Not to mention tracking requires a
good idea of where the RADAR is.
Saw the rig from the air a couple months back when we visited our
daughter and son-in-law on Maui.
Flank speed? It's the next best thing to a geological feature, speedwise.
