Pinetree Line var en serie med radarstasjoner tvers over de nordlige Forente stater og det sydlige Canada som i store trekk gikk langs den 50. bredegrad sammen med andre stasjoner langs atlanterhavskysten og stillehavskysten. Pinetree Line ble operert av NORAD (etter at det ble dannet). Over halvparten ble bemannet av personell fra United States Air Force og resten fra Royal Canadian Air Force. Radarstasjonene var det første samordnede system for tidlig oppsporing av et mulig bombeangrep fra Sovjetsamveldet mot Nord-Amerika, men før den tidlige radarteknologi fra 1950-tallet ble utdatert og systemet var i full drift.

Historie

Planer for det som skulle bli Pinetree Line kom så tidlig som i 1946 innen Permanent Joint Board on Defence (PJBD), en felles amerikansk-canadisk organisasjon. Likevel, kostnadene ved drift av et slikt system i etterkrigstiden var før høye. I stedet konsentrerte Canada seg om områdene rundt Ontario og Quebec, mens USA satte opp stasjoner i Midtvesten og langs Østkysten.
