Description
Credible deterrence depends on technological capability and political will. During the Cold War, the United States relied on the nuclear triad to deter ballistic missile threats emanating from the Soviet Union. Today, the threat is expanding to rogue elements and proliferators of missile technologies undeterred by Cold War methods. The current land- and sea-based missile defense architecture provides a limited defense against these threats but it lacks redundancy and depends on the proper positioning of assets to intercept missiles in their midcourse and terminal phases of flight. There is no reliable capability to intercept missiles during the boost phase-- a capability perhaps best provided from space.
