North American Air Defense Command

North American Aerospace Defense Command (NORAD) is a joint U.S.-Canada organization responsible for monitoring and defending North American airspace. Using radar, satellites, and other technology, NORAD detects and tracks potential threats like aircraft or missiles. It ensures the safety of the continent by providing early warning of any military or unauthorized incursions, coordinating response efforts, and protecting critical airspace. NORAD's role is vital for national security, maintaining readiness to respond swiftly to any emergency in the airspace above the United States and Canada.
