This would not be the first CBP tower placed along the coastline in California.

EFF identified one in Del Mar, about 30 miles from the border,

and another in San Diego County where the border fence meets the Pacific Ocean.

CBP has also applied to place towers
–although not necessarily the Anduril model
–in or near several other coastal locations:

#Gaviota State Park,
#Refugio State Park,
#Vandenberg Air Force Base,
#PiedrasBlancas and
#PointVicente.

The California coastline isn’t the only coastline dotted with surveillance towers.

The Migrant Rights Network has also documented numerous Anduril towers along the southeast coast of England.

Where the San Clemente tower would differ is that there is a substantial population between the tower and the beach,

and because it's a 360-degree system, it can watch neighborhoods even further from the coast.

However, this won't be the first time an Anduril tower has been placed next to a community.

EFF has documented numerous Anduril towers in public parks along the Rio Grande in
#Laredo and #Roma, Texas.

In Mission, Texas, an Anduril tower was placed outside an RV park:
the tower could not even see the border without capturing data from the community.

Because AI can swivel the cameras 360 degrees, two churches were within the "viewshed" of that tower.

Another day, another launch., another chance to win the Kessler syndrome pool! (what's the odds on Kessler Syndrome on those scam...er...market sites?)

GT 254: AFGSC VALIDATES RELIABILITY, READINESS OF ICBM FORCE WITH MINUTEMAN III TEST LAUNCH

Published Nov. 5, 2025

VANDENBERG SPACE FORCE BASE, Calif --

Air Force Global Strike Command conducted a test launch of an unarmed Minuteman III intercontinental ballistic missile from Vandenberg Space Force Base, California, on November 5, 2025. This test, designated GT 254, evaluated the ongoing reliability, operational readiness, and accuracy of the ICBM system, a cornerstone of America's national defense.

Head's up Santa Barbara, Ventura County - ICBM launch sometime tonight out of Vandenberg. (not loaded with a nuke... hopefully).

Sometime between 11pm and 5am. I won't be awake. Take pictures/video!

Wonder if this will be more visible from Arizona than the fog of SoCal. 🤔

Ha, they *DID* publish the launch today, but no pickup by media. Hilarious that they include that the "test is routine" and was "scheduled years in advance" 🤪

#Firefly Aerospace just set a new responsive-launch record. Its Alpha rocket lifted off from #Vandenberg SFB on Thursday just 27 hours after the U.S. Space Force gave the order — less time than on any previous national security mission, demonstrating the "Space Force can rapidly integrate capabilities and will respond to aggression when called to do so on tactically relevant timelines" #space #DOD #military #USSF #USSPACECOM https://www.space.com/firefly-aerospace-rapid-launch-space-force-success
