BAF-3 Executive Summary: The North Warning System (NWS) in Canada is a chain of unmanned radar sites that provides aerospace surveillance, established to detect and allow for an early response to potential threats entering North American air space. It is part of Canada’s North American Aerospace Defense Command (NORAD) agreement with the United States, and an essential capability in our efforts to maintain Canada's sovereignty. BAF-3 is one of 11 Long Range Radars (LRRs) in the NWS. The NWS LRRs are located across Yukon, Northwest Territories, Nunavut, and down the Labrador coast. The facilities are remotely monitored and controlled from North Bay on a 24/7 basis. The information they receive is automatically sent to the Canadian Air Defence Sector located at 22 Wing, CFB North Bay over a long-haul satellite communications network. Raytheon Canada Limited is contracted by the Department of National Defence to operate and maintain BAF-3.BAF-3 is situated in Nunavut on Brevoort Island.
