Deployment of American THAAD in South Korea : A Comparison with the Unrealized Anti-missile System in Poland and the Czech Republic

Popis výsledku v původním jazyce

This article compares the unrealized American ballistic missile defense (BMD) in Poland and Czech Republic with the one installed in South Korea. The aim is to find what makes the cases different, consequently what could be learned from the successful one. Both of these strategic projects faced difficulties through domestic and especially international opposition. The former was aimed against long-range Iranian missiles but the Russian Federation strongly objected, calling it a direct national security threat. The later is aimed to protect South Korea from short- to mid-range North Korean ballistic missiles. Terminal High Altitude Area Defense (THAAD) faces major Chinese and Russian opposition mainly due to the dual use of its radar, which can monitor into the territories of both countries. To fulfill its goals this paper firstly states a brief history of American BMD, followed by a comparison of most important information of both projects. A conclusion is then made from the American point of view to see why the two cases differed in their outcome.
