It succeeded the UGM-27 Polaris beginning in 1972, bringing major advances in warheads and accuracy. It was followed by Trident I in 1979, and Trident II in 1990.

  • The Strategic Missile Submarine Force and Apl's Role in Its Development
    JOHNM. WATSON THE STRATEGIC MISSILE SUBMARINE FORCE AND APL'S ROLE IN ITS DEVELOPMENT The U.S. Navy's Fleet Ballistic Missile program is one of the largest, most successful weapons systems development programs in our country's history. In the thirty-seven-year span of this program, three generations of increasingly capable weapons systems (Polaris, Poseidon, and Trident) have been developed and deployed. Contributions to these systems have spawned three of the technical departments at the Applied Physics Laboratory: Space, Strategic Systems, and Submarine Technology. INTRODUCTION The U.S. Navy's Fleet Ballistic Missile (FBM) program, begun in 1955, is recognized today as the cornerstone of the U.S. nuclear strategic deterrent. The submarine­ launched ballistic missile (SLBM) and its nuclear-powered submarine launching platform, the SSBN (submersible ship, ballistic, nuclear), provide a mobile, stealthy, long­ patrol-duration weapon system with enormous retaliation potential. This system provides a significant deterrent advantage over land-based missiles or aircraft systems because of its mobility and its ability to avoid detection in vast ocean patrol areas, thus remaining invulnerable to a surprise attack. The Navy's Strategic Systems Program (SSP), formerly the Special Projects Office (SPO) and the Strategic Systems Program Office (SSPO), has overseen the development and operational deployment of three generations of increasingly capable weapon systems (Po­ laris, Poseidon, and Trident), with six variants of the SLBM (Figs. 1 and 2). The success of this program is largely due Figure 1. A Trident II (D5) submarine-launched ballistic missile (SLBM) is launched off the coast of Florida. The D-5 missile is the to the uniqueness of the sSP organization itself, the vision latest addition to the U.S.

  • The British Experience
    CHAPTER 9 THE BRITISH EXPERIENCE Michael Quinlan PRE-HISTORY For a mix of historical and geographical reasons, the United Kingdom brought to the nuclear revolution a security mindset differing in signifi cant respects from that of the United States. The United States, behind its huge two-ocean moat, enjoyed (despite the outlying Pearl Harbor shock) a sense of continental sanctuary that in some degree endured, at least psychologically if not intellectually, until the impact of September 11, 2001. The combination of island confi guration and dominant maritime power had for centuries given Britain a similar sense. With the advent of aircraft, however, able to overpass swiftly the short sea distances that separated Britain from the threats and turbulences of the rest of Europe, the experience of the two 20th-century world wars had unmistakably and irreversibly erased that sense. In the First World War raids on England by Zeppelin airships began as early as January 1915. The vulnerability of these delivery vehicles led in time to their withdrawal from the bombardment role, but long-range fi xed-wing aircraft subsequently entered the attack. Defensive attrition of all these efforts was severe. The direct damage infl icted, a few thousand civilian casualties, was modest in comparison with the carnage of the Western Front. But the disruption of industrial production and the diversion of air power into defence were signifi cant, and the memory of attack lingered in public consciousness. It played some part in the widespread revulsion against the idea of war in the 1930s. The leading political fi gure of the time warned that “it is well for the man in the street to realise that there is no power on earth that can protect him from being bombed .
