High Quality Content by WIKIPEDIA articles! A radar picket is a radar-equipped ship, submarine, aircraft, or vehicle used to increase the radar detection range around a force to protect it from surprise attack. Often several detached radar units encircle a force to provide increased cover in all directions. Radar picket ships first came into being during World War II to aid in the advance to Japan. As they were the nearest ships to the Japanese airfields, and hence the first seen, they were often heavily attacked by kamikaze aircraft. Formerly, the United States Navy employed radar picket ships converted from the former Boxed Aircraft Transport version of the Liberty ship to extend the DEW Line seaward. During the period between 1955 and 1965, sixteen Liberty ships converted into Radar Picket Ships were stationed on the East Coast and West Coast, eight stationed at Treasure Island, California and eight stationed at Davisville, Rhode Island.
