Sentinel was a proposed US Army anti-ballistic missile (ABM) system designed to provide a light layer of protection over the entire United States, able to defend against small ICBM strikes like those expected from China, or accidental launches from the USSR or other states. The system would have seventeen bases, each centered on its Missile Site Radar (MSR) and a computerized command center buried below it. The system was supported by a string of five long-range Perimeter Acquisition Radars (PAR) spread across the US/Canada border area and another in Alaska. The primary weapon was the long-range Spartan missile, with short range Sprint missiles providing additional protection near US ICBM fields and PAR sites. The system would initially have a total of 480 Spartan and 192 Sprint missiles.

  • Le programme Sentinel était un système de défense anti-missile proposé en 1967 par l'US Army et devant protéger le territoire des États-Unis d'une attaque nucléaire chinoise ou d'un lancement accidentel soviétique. Le système prévoyait 17 bases, toutes organisées autour d'un radar (MSR) surplombant un centre de commande informatisé blindé et équipées de deux types de missiles antibalistiques : le Spartan, pour l'interception dans l'espace et le Sprint, pour l'interception dans l’atmosphère. 480 Spartan et 192 Sprint devaient initialement être déployés. Une chaîne de cinq radars longue-portée (PAR), repartis le long de la frontière canado-américaine et en Alaska, aurait complété le système. (fr)
