The United States is readying an ultra-sophisticated radar system to float slowly around the world to Alaska where it will play a key role in a multibillion-dollar project to shoot down incoming ballistic missiles.

The platform's on-board propulsion system makes it possible to operate it in oceans around the world, the Missile Defense Agency said in a statement last week.
