Defense Acquistions
Author: Homer Thomson
Publisher: DIANE Publishing
ISBN: 9780756706135
Category : Technology & Engineering
Languages : en
Pages : 50
Book Description
The increasing use of military & commercial satellite systems for nat. security will have significant implications for the U.S. in the 21st cent. DoD plans to expand the use of mil. satellite systems (MSS) & develop technologic such as lasers & electronic jammers that could be used to conduct combat operations from space. This report discusses DoD's approach to implementing the plan for expanding MSS in the 21st cent. It evaluates the extent to which: plans for expanding MSS conform to national & defense space policies, funding projections support planned MSS programs & desired capabilities, & actions are being taken to educate mil. personnel to support future MSS operations.

Space System Architecture Analysis and Wargaming
Author: Larry B. Rainey
Publisher: CRC Press
ISBN: 1003853285
Category : Technology & Engineering
Languages : en
Pages : 333
Book Description
Space System Architecture Analysis and Wargaming presents a single-source reference for two major topics that are not currently covered in literature related to subdisciplines of astronautics. It provides modeling and simulation tools to architect space systems and analysis, which include detailed discussions of various simulation tools: STK, SEAS, SOAP, AFSIM, EADSIM, and STORM. Working through the types of analysis that can be performed with each toolkit, the book focuses on designing and evaluating alternative space systems and system of systems to meet mission requirements. It also addresses the field of space wargaming with two tools: Space Warfare Analysis Tool/Space Attack Warning and Space and Information Analysis Model. The book is intended for professionals working in the fields of aerospace engineering, astronautical engineering, space systems engineering, and space wargaming. It will also interest graduate students who are studying spacecraft systems and space architecture.

The Transformation Trinity
Author: Bruce H. McClintock
Publisher:
ISBN:
Category : Air power
Languages : en
Pages : 98
Book Description
'The world that lies in store for us over the next 25 years will surely challenge our received wisdom about how to protect American interests and advance American values'. With these words, the Commission on National Security in the 21st Century captured the exciting challenges this study sets out to explore. First, this study develops a generalized model for United States military transformations in peacetime. To develop the model the author combines observations made by several historians about recurrent trends in military strategic innovation. The author concludes that, after taking into account inevitable uncertainty, there are three identifiable factors that occur in most cases of military transformation. The three key factors are the need for a coherent, congruent vision; an emerging culture that bolsters the vision and develops competing theories of victory to fulfill the vision; and a process for honestly assessing the maturing vision and its supporting theories of victory. After defining the limitations of the model and its usefulness, the author applies the framework to an important aspect of national security-the future of space power. The framework is used to study the recent approach to space power from a civilian policy and military application perspective. Application of the transformation model highlights some important points about the present approach for developing space power. First, the civilian vision is not completely congruent with the military vision and the military vision is inconsistent. Second, the military-primarily the Air Force-has made moderate but hesitant progress towards nurturing a space power culture with some unexpected consequences. Third, the military has an uncoordinated, haphazard approach to assessment that blurs the merit of the space power vision and associated theories.
