Each mother ship and raider requires high- end GPS, radar and sonar. The best radars available for small ships run about $4,000. High end GSP system cost about $1,500, and sonar systems a little less than $1,000. All of the equipment runs about $400,000 for 12 trawlers and 50 raiders before installation costs. Once again, this is not an annual cost because most of the hardware can be used for several years...
...Czech Republic a few weeks ago, which he visited as part of his world tour of U.S. allied countries. The Czech Republic maintains a highly ambiguous relationship with the United States, thanks in large part to the Bush administration’s missile shield plan that would position radar in Czech territory and expose it to backlash from Russia. Obama’s hosts, meanwhile, have been supporters neither of his ascendancy nor his policies. Mirek Topolanek, whose successor as prime minister will be named today, just fired off his last political salvo in the capacity of leader...

Legally, they didn't have to say a thing...
...Czechs, on the other hand, remain keenly interested in U.S. policy. Most want to hear from Obama whether he plans to shelve plans for basing a U.S. radar station in the hills an hour's drive south-west of Prague, as part of the missile shield supposedly aimed at countering a potential Iranian threat. Moscow is vehemently opposed to the shield, and Obama has indicated that he may not press ahead with deploying a system that has yet to prove its effectiveness despite years of testing. And in his efforts to "reset" relations with Moscow, President Obama told his Russian...
...Obama's comments on Wednesday were so notable. The issue of imbalances is not expected to play a big role in the coming G-20 communiqué, which focuses on regulation, aid to developing countries, protectionism and stimulus. But Obama clearly signaled that the issue is on his radar, and that policy shifts may be coming. In practice, this means measures in the medium term that will encourage greater consumption and spending in developing nations like China, and more saving and less debt in the U.S. Although he was vague, Obama discussed what would amount to a reworking...
