To which body can the concept of ADIZ be traced back for its establishment?

The concept of Air Defense Identification Zones (ADIZ) can be traced back to the United States, as it was established primarily for national security purposes. ADIZs are designated areas of airspace where an identification, surveillance, and control requirement is established to protect the airspace from unauthorized entry, particularly from potential military threats. The U.S. was one of the first nations to implement this type of system after World War II, as it addressed the need to monitor and identify aircraft entering its airspace to ensure the safety and security of the nation.

In establishing ADIZs, the U.S. aimed to manage and control civilian and military aircraft entering specific regions, coordinating responses to any unauthorized incursions. This concept has since been adopted and integrated into airspace management practices by other countries around the world, influenced by the example set by the United States.
