West Seattle lurks on the horizon. Smith Tower stands proudly. And an odd piece of military hardware is sitting in a Harbor Island shipyard.
The Missile Defense Agency's X-band Radar is visible as a white dome beyond the container cranes closest to downtown. It sits atop a 28-story platform, which is self-propelled. It will roam the Pacific, scanning the sky for missiles.

I've posted four images of the SBX radar in the last couple months... this shot is outstanding!
