DHS plans to nearly triple the number of surveillance towers along U.S. borders, from the current 830 to 2,300 by 2034, at a cost of $1 billion (likely a lot more with overruns).
Will utilize AI-based systems with radar, thermal infrared and optical systems to track targets over long distances, incl residential neighborhoods spying on homes on both sides of the border./
