DeBlois Major issues have plagued the US military space community for years. Foremost among these issues is the relationship between air and space. At a recent airpower conference, military leaders from the western powers presented discussions of airpower and space issues with a pervasive underlying assumption: that the next logical step from the exploitation of airpower and space capabilities was the merging of the two environments toward the exploitation of “aerospace” power.1 The current distinction between air and space rests on the fiscal and technical inability to merge them—an inability that is soon to be overcome. Conferees dismissed environmental distinctions between the two on the grounds that there is no absolute boundary between air and space.2 In Paths of Heaven, the chapter titled “Ascendant Realms: Characteristics of Air and Space Power,” I examine this assumption from the perspective of 21 different military characteristics and conclude it to be invalid. The reasons extend well beyond an inability—fiscally and technically—to merge the two realms. Similarities based upon functions and the lack of a distinct boundary are offset by distinctions in the physical environments. The physical laws of air and space are profoundly different. A vehicle flying on a cushion of air is not equivalent to a vehicle in free-fall orbit. Aside from the issue of access due to huge differences in energy requirements, the airborne vehicle is maneuverable and allows for flexible operations while the space-borne platform is fixed to a high-velocity orbital path. The latter expends little energy to stay in a fixed orbital position, allowing it a duration capability well beyond airborne vehicles. The issue is not whether the two environments can be merged technically, but given that they can be merged, should they be merged. An analogy is useful to illustrate the argument. ix Land and sea forces maintain a two-dimensional perspective and relatively slow pace of operations. The amphibious mission certainly illustrates the fact that there is no absolute boundary between land and sea for military purposes. Fiscal and technical capability to merge the two environments in an attempt to exploit surface power exists. In spite of these similarities, land power and sea power have not been merged as surface power because of environmental differences. The question is not whether to make a land/sea capable vehicle or system, but whether they should be the mainstay of a military surface capability. The answer is a resounding no. Given limited fiscal resources, the choice between making either 1,000 land/sea vehicles or making 490 land vehicles, 490 sea vehicles, and 20 land/sea vehicles is trivial. A land vehicle will out-perform a land/sea vehicle on land, and a sea vehicle will out-perform a land/sea vehicle at sea. Most missions are either at land or at sea; only a few cross the hazy boundaries. It makes sense to invest in the best capability for the environment in which the mission will be performed. Doctrine, organization, and strategies flow from the environments and the systems employed to exploit those environments. Hence land power is distinct from sea power. Surface power would be a less optimal approach. The same argument holds true for air and space power. Air and space forces maintain a three-dimensional perspective and relatively fast pace of operations. The similarities end there. Although there is no absolute boundary between air and space, no physicist would refute the fact that once the fuzzy boundary is transcended, the nature of the environment changes radically. Fiscal and technical capability to merge the two environments in an attempt to exploit aerospace power is emerging, but should it be pursued? Again, environmental differences drive the answer. The question is not whether to make an aerospace capable vehicle/system, but whether we should make many as the mainstay of a military aerospace capability. The answer, again, is a resounding no. A space vehicle will out-perform an aerospace vehicle in space: A typical aerospace vehicle will carry the baggage of air capability, such as wings, into space.

  • Antisatellite Systems the Nation's First Operational Antisatellite Weapon System Was Known As Program 505
    This group photo, taken in 1968, shows 14 of the 17 MOL astronauts. The first group of eight astronauts was selected in November 1965, the second group of five in June 1966, and the third group of four in June 1967. Following cancellation of the MOL program, seven of the former MOL astronauts became astronauts for NASA, and three later attained general officer or admiral rank. James Abrahamson (top right) became a lieutenant general and Director of the Strategic Defense Initiative Organization. Robert Herres (top left) became a four-star general and Commander-in-Chief of the U.S. Space Command. Richard Truly (bottom right) became a vice admiral and head of the U.S. Naval Space Command. After retiring from the Navy, Admiral Truly joined NASA, serving first as Associate Administrator for Space Flight and later as Administrator. Antisatellite Systems The nation's first operational antisatellite weapon system was known as Program 505. It was developed by the U.S. Army, using Nike Zeus missiles originally designed for an anti-ballistic-missile role. The Army based the missiles on Kwajalein Atoll in the Pacific, conducted tests, and declared the system operational on 1 August 1963. Secretary of Defense McNamara at first kept the system on alert but abandoned it in favor of the Air Force’s antisatellite system in 1964. The Air Force’s antisatellite system was brought into being by Space Systems Division during late 1963 and early 1964. A ground-based system known as Program 437, it employed Thor missiles with nuclear warheads which could be shot into space accurately enough to destroy or disable a hostile space-based weapon or satellite.

During the decade from 1989–1998, NASA used two types of launch systems, one consisting of several families of expendable launch vehicles (ELV) and the second consisting of the world’s only partially reusable launch system—the Space Shuttle. A significant challenge NASA faced during the decade was the development of technologies needed to design and implement a new reusable launch system that would prove less expensive than the Shuttle. Although some attempts seemed promising, none succeeded. This chapter addresses most subjects relating to access to space and space transportation. It discusses and describes ELVs, the Space Shuttle in its launch vehicle function, and NASA’s attempts to develop new launch systems. Tables relating to each launch vehicle’s characteristics are included. The other functions of the Space Shuttle—as a scientific laboratory, staging area for repair missions, and a prime element of the Space Station program—are discussed in the next chapter, Human Spaceflight. This chapter also provides a brief review of launch systems in the past decade, an overview of policy relating to launch systems, a summary of the management of NASA’s launch systems programs, and tables of funding data. The Last Decade Reviewed (1979–1988) From 1979 through 1988, NASA used families of ELVs that had seen service during the previous decade.

  • Kazakhstan Missile Chronology
    Kazakhstan Missile Chronology Last update: May 2010 As of May 2010, this chronology is no longer being updated. For current developments, please see the Kazakhstan Missile Overview. This annotated chronology is based on the data sources that follow each entry. Public sources often provide conflicting information on classified military programs. In some cases we are unable to resolve these discrepancies, in others we have deliberately refrained from doing so to highlight the potential influence of false or misleading information as it appeared over time. In many cases, we are unable to independently verify claims. Hence in reviewing this chronology, readers should take into account the credibility of the sources employed here. Inclusion in this chronology does not necessarily indicate that a particular development is of direct or indirect proliferation significance. Some entries provide international or domestic context for technological development and national policymaking. Moreover, some entries may refer to developments with positive consequences for nonproliferation. 2009-1947 March 2009 On 4 March 2009, Kazakhstan signed a contract to purchase S-300 air defense missile systems from Russia. According to Ministry of Defense officials, Kazakhstan plans to purchase 10 batteries of S-300PS by 2011. Kazakhstan's Air Defense Commander Aleksandr Sorokin mentioned, however, that the 10 batteries would still not be enough to shield all the most vital" facilities designated earlier by a presidential decree. The export version of S- 300PS (NATO designation SA-10C Grumble) has a maximum range of 75 km and can hit targets moving at up to 1200 m/s at a minimum altitude of 25 meters.
