This activity is not seen as a threat nor is the activity seen as provocative. NORAD monitors the movements of foreign military aircraft in the ADIZ and, as required, escorts them from the ADIZ. This is NORAD Operation #NobleEagle: norad.mil/Newsroom/Fact-β¦
NORAD employs a layered defense network of satellites, ground-based radars, airborne radar and fighter aircraft to track and identify aircraft and inform appropriate actions. We remain ready to employ a number of response options in defense of North America & Arctic sovereignty.
