The United States and Canada have agreed on concrete steps to modernize the Joint Aerospace Defense Command of North America (NORAD). This is stated in a joint statement of the defense ministers of the two countries.

"Canadian Minister of National Defense Harjit Sajjan and United States Secretary of Defense Lloyd Austin approve this joint statement directing cooperation between Canada and the United States to expand the capabilities of the NORAD aerospace industry," the article published on the Pentagon website on August 17 says.

As noted in the document, the Joint Command "should be able to notice faster and take more resolute retaliatory measures" in connection with aerospace and maritime threats on the northern borders.

The defense departments of the two countries, according to the statement, plan to increase their technological capabilities to identify possible threats. In particular, they will put into operation the latest over-the-horizon radar tracking systems.

In addition, the defense ministries of the two countries plan to increase spending on the modernization of the NORAD infrastructure in the Arctic and improve coordination of actions in the region.

As specified, part of the investment will be directed to the development of new weapons.

On February 24, it was reported that the United States and Canada agreed to modernize NORAD and launch an expanded dialogue on the Arctic.
