She was originally assigned to DAMP Project by the Advanced Research Projects Agency (ARPA) to attempt to collect radar signature data on incoming intercontinental ballistic missiles in the Caribbean, the South Atlantic Ocean, and the Indian Ocean.
During her years on the DAMP Project the USAS American Mariner operated various types of long-distance, narrow-beam radars to gather data on intercontinental ballistic missiles.
