Book Description
The DoD plans to invest $109 billion in its tactical air forces (TAF) between 2007 & 2013. Long term, DoD plans to replace aging legacy aircraft with fewer, more expensive but more capable & stealthy aircraft. Recapitalizing & modernizing TAF within today¿s constrained budget environment is a formidable challenge. DoD has already incurred substantial cost & schedule overruns in its acquisition of new systems, & further delays could require billions of dollars in additional investment to keep legacy aircraft capable & sustainable. This report describes the current status of DoD¿s new TAF acquisition programs; identifies current impacts on legacy aircraft modernization programs & retirement schedules; & assesses DoD¿s overall investment plan for TAF.

Author: Damon ColettaPublisher: Routledge
ISBN: 1135969663
Category : History
Languages : en
Pages : 368
Book Description
This edited volume introduces the reader to the role of space in military and defense strategy, and outlines some of the major foreign and domestic actors in the space arena, as well as constraints of law and treaties on activities in space. It also addresses science and technology as they relate to space policy. The book addresses three main questions: How does the realm of space fit into strategic thinking about national security? How does policy regarding space develop and what considerations, both in the United States and abroad, figure prominently in calculations about space policy? How do different states/nations/actors regard the role of space in their national security calculations and how do these policies impact each other? This book fills a niche in the space policy field, providing insights into space and strategy from international experts from the military, academic and scientific communities. A unique feature of the book is the chapter on science and technology, which utilizes the latest information available concerning space utilization and exploration.
