The Research and Technology Organization (RTO) of NATO RTO is the single focus in NATO for Defence Research and Technology activities. Its mission is to conduct and promote cooperative research and information exchange. The objective is to support the development and effective use of national defence research and technology and to meet the military needs of the Alliance, to maintain a technological lead, and to provide advice to NATO and national decision makers. The RTO performs its mission with the support of an extensive network of national experts. It also ensures effective coordination with other NATO bodies involved in R&T activities. RTO reports both to the Military Committee of NATO and to the Conference of National Armament Directors. It comprises a Research and Technology Board (RTB) as the highest level of national representation and the Research and Technology Agency (RTA), a dedicated staff with its headquarters in Neuilly, near Paris, France. In order to facilitate contacts with the military users and other NATO activities, a small part of the RTA staff is located in NATO Headquarters in Brussels. The Brussels staff also coordinates RTO’s cooperation with nations in Middle and Eastern Europe, to which RTO attaches particular importance especially as working together in the field of research is one of the more promising areas of initial cooperation. The total spectrum of R&T activities is covered by the following 7 bodies: • AVT Applied Vehicle Technology Panel • HFM Human Factors and Medicine Panel • IST Information Systems Technology Panel • NMSG NATO Modelling and Simulation Group • SAS Studies, Analysis and Simulation Panel • SCI Systems Concepts and Integration Panel • SET Sensors and Electronics Technology Panel These bodies are made up of national representatives as well as generally recognised ‘world class’ scientists. They also provide a communication link to military users and other NATO bodies. RTO’s scientific and technological work is carried out by Technical Teams, created for specific activities and with a specific duration. Such Technical Teams can organise workshops, symposia, field trials, lecture series and training courses. An important function of these Technical Teams is to ensure the continuity of the expert networks. RTO builds upon earlier cooperation in defence research and technology as set-up under the Advisory Group for Aerospace Research and Development (AGARD) and the Defence Research Group (DRG). AGARD and the DRG share common roots in that they were both established at the initiative of Dr Theodore von K´arm´an, a leading aerospace scientist, who early on recognised the importance of scientific support for the Allied Armed Forces. RTO is capitalising on these common roots in order to provide the Alliance and the NATO nations with a strong scientific and technological basis that will guarantee a solid base for the future.

A different approach was followed for the conduct of the paper presentations. Each session of the symposium started with a presentation of the panel’s perspectives and ended up with a presentation of the rapporteur’s summary remarks and closing comments about that session. A total of 19 papers were presented during the symposium with an additional four presentations of the panel perspectives. The keynote address on “Air Defense Opportunities and Challenges for Expeditionary Forces” summarizing all the major issues and the basic trends in air defense for the new millenium. Six papers were presented during the first session on Systems Concepts, covering various aspects of air defense. Four papers were presented during the System Architecture session which were all related to the future air defence system architectures. The third session had six papers related with the integration aspects of the air defense systems. The last session of the symposium was on Interoperability with four paper presentations on the interoperability aspects of air defense systems. The panel’s perspectives on system architectures revealed some important aspects related to the integrated air defense. Command, Control, Communications, Computer, Intelligence, Surveillance and Reconnaissance (C4ISR) was pointed out as being one of the major issues of the information systems directly supporting the military operations. It is also stated that the C4SIR architecture frame work should embody the operational, the systems and the technical views of an information architecture with defined set of products describing each view. The panel’s perspectives on the systems’ integration focused basically on the system integration at the level of defence acquisition with particular emphasis on the systems of systems approach. The concept of “smart procurement” is introduced as a result of various factors such as cost over runs and slippage, increasing complexity and diversity in defense systems and rapidly changing structure of the defense industry. The smart procurement life cycle is introduced to ease the acquisition of large-scale battlespace systems of systems which can be perceived to be of autonomous or semi-autonomous subsystems in implemented operational terms. This has to be a fully integrated, functionally-based systems of systems concept, yet flexible to allow the evolution of the system to accommodate component obsolescence, technology inserts, etc. Hence, the acquisition cycle is smarter to control programme costs whilst taking advantage of the evolutionary opportunities for system capability provided by technology inserts. The panel’s perspectives on mission management and interoperability put forward the concept of systems of systems for integrated air defense systems and the elements of mission management. Technology push and demand pull of the military community are evidenced to reach the goals for mission system development. The life cycle of a system starting from transformation of goals into process modelling, then to systems and finally to its management are detailed in order to reach a specific goal. The architecture of the mission management function is given in relation to integrated military mission systems. Finally, the application of these concepts to air defense operations and automation are detailed. iii Concepts de syst`emes pour la d´efense a´erienne int´egr´ee de forces internationales mobiles d’intervention en situation de crise (RTO MP-063 / SCI-085) Synth`ese Le th`eme du symposium sur “Les concepts de syst`emes pour la d´efense antia´erienne int´egr´ee de forces mobiles internationales d’intervention” etait´ en prise directe avec l’actualit´e des op´erations a´eriennes internationales de l’OTAN dans les Balkans.

    The Cold War Conception of Nuclear Reality: Mobilizing the American Imagination for Nuclear War in the 1950'S

    International Journal of Politics, Culture and Society, VoL 6, No. 3, 1993 The Cold War Conception of Nuclear Reality: Mobilizing the American Imagination for Nuclear War in the 1950's Guy Oakes THE CONSTRUCTION OF NUCLEAR REALITY During World War II, the United States was not occupied like Europe, invaded like the Soviet Union, or bombed like Great Britain. Nor was there any plausible suggestion that the home front might be subjected to any of these acts of war. As a result, it has been said that Americans were obliged to fight the war at a distance and "on imagination alone. ''1 Within months of V-J day, civil defense strategists began to make plans to mobilize the American public for World War III. By the late 1940's, these plans included preparations for a Soviet nuclear strike against the United States. Thus Cold War civil defense planning posed the much more daunt- ing problem of fighting an imaginary war. By 1950, the American foreign policy objective of containing what was perceived to be an otherwise irresistible expansion of Soviet power was tied to the strategy of nuclear deterrence. If the Soviets threatened war, the United States would guarantee the peace, if necessary by nuclear re- taliation. As students of the early Cold War have stressed for some years, this strategy rested on domestic presuppositions. It was necessary to mo- bilize the American home front in order to sustain what President Kennedy later called "a long twilight struggle" in support of a new conception of national security. In the nuclear age, the project of securing American na- tional interests would be interminable in principle, unprecedentedly expensive, and uniquely dangerous.

The demands on sensors, state observation, missile guidance, and simulation for air-defence is the subject of this research. Historical reviews for each topic, justification of favoured techniques and algorithms are provided, using a nomenclature developed to unify these disciplines. Sensors selected for their enduring impact on future systems are described and simulation models provided. Complex internal systems are reduced to simpler models capable of replicating dominant features, particularly those that adversely effect state observers. Of the state observer architectures considered, a distributed system comprising ground based target and own-missile tracking, data up-link, and on-board missile measurement and track fusion is the natural choice for air-defence. An IMM is used to process radar measurements, combining the estimates from filters with different target dynamics. The remote missile state observer combines up-linked target tracks and missile plots with IMU and seeker data to provide optimal guidance information.
