Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: The Conduct of the Persian Gulf War should be read by every U.S. military officer because it has certainly been read by the Chinese military. In 2013, the Academy of Military Sciences of the People''s Liberation Army of China issued a revised edition of its "The Science of Military Strategy" (SMS). A Chinese-language copy was obtained by Secrecy News and we translated it to English. If you read the Chinese account of the Persian War, you will see that the Chinese military was astonished at the rapidity with which the U.S. and Coalition forces defeated one of the largest and best equipped armies in the world. This was an army that had years of experience fighting against Iran so they were experienced. Still, the Chinese saw that the Iraqi army was no match for what they were up against. The U.S. and coalition success in the Persian Gulf War pretty much woke up the Chinese People''s Liberation Army (PLA) that they had better modernize if they were ever have to go up against the U.S. on the battlefield. I am pretty sure that the lessons of the Persian Gulf War were not lost on other foreign military around the world. The Persian Gulf War was really only the tip of the iceberg when we talk about 21st Century Warfare. It showed that war in the future would be complex and asymmetrical. If you did not fight in Desert Storm, this makes interesting reading. The performance of the weaponry and the professionalism displayed by the coalition forces working together was not accidental. It took hard work and careful planning. This is not a lesson we should forget. This should be mandatory reading in all the U.S. service academies. It is most probably mandatory in foreign military academies. This is Volume 2 of 3 (Total book was over 1,300 pages) and contains: Appendix T - Performance of Selected Weapon Systems Appendix A - U.S. Fatalities and Prisoners of War Attributed Directly to Operations Desert Shield and Desert Storm From 3 Aug 1990 to 15 December 1991 Appendix B - United Nations Resolutions on Iraq Appendix C - Intelligence Appendix D - Preparedness of United States Forces Appendix E - Deployment Appendix F - Logistics Buildup and Sustainment Appendix G - Medical Support Appendix H - Reserve Component Forces Appendix I - Coalition Development, Coordination, and Welfare Appendix J - Special Operations Forces Why buy a book you can download for free?

Download or read book America's Space Sentinels written by Jeffrey T. Richelson and published by University Press of Kansas. This book was released on 2012-11-20 with total page 351 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Originally published in 1999, America's Space Sentinels won the American Astronautical Society's prestigious Eugene Emme Astronautical Literature Award and quickly established itself as the definitive book for understanding a crucial component of our national defense capabilities. It focused on the emergence and evolution of the Air Force's Defense Support Program (DSP) satellite system, which came on line in 1970 and continued to perform at a high level through the turn of this century and beyond. For this new edition, Jeffrey Richelson covers significant developments during the last dozen years relating to the deployment of these satellites, especially the struggles to develop and launch the follow-on Space-Based Infrared System (SBIRS), beginning in the late 1990s and continuing up to the present. The result is a book that remains the first and best source of information regarding these vital programs. As Richelson notes, SBIRS, like its aging but still functioning predecessor, has been designed primarily to provide instant early warning of missile launches from around the globe-particularly China, Russia, North Korea, Pakistan, India, and Iran-through the infra-red sensors carried on each satellite. But the new system-beset by hardware, software, fiscal, and political problems-has only managed to move forward in fits and starts. While it has done so, the DSP system has continued to monitor the skies above the earth; two key ground stations in Australia and Germany have closed; nuclear powers Russia and the United States conferred extensively over the so-called Y2K problem (concerned that a computer malfunction might produce false alarms of a missile attack); and worries over potential launches from nations perceived as hostile to American interests have increased substantially.

Book excerpt: Recent nuclear tests in India and Pakistan make it clear that the US can no longer continue a policy of benign neglect toward India. This book engages the key issues for nonproliferation and foreign policy that affect Indo-American relations. It addresses under-explored areas such as missile control and space cooperation, chemical and biological weapons, and the use of sanctions versus incentives. This book goes beyond historical analysis to offer practical recommendations for policymakers in both countries.

Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: In this damning expose, a veteran senate defense advisor argues that since Sept 11, 2001, the conduct of the U.S. Congress has sunk to new depths and endangered the nation's security. Winslow Wheeler draws on three decades of work with four prominent senators to tell in lively detail how members of Congress divert money from essential war-fighting accounts to pay for pork in their home states, cook the budget books to pursue personal agendas, and run for cover when confronted with tough defense issues. With meticulous documentation to support his claims, he contends that this behavior is not confined to one party or one political philosophy. He further contends that senators who sell themselves as reformers and journalists covering Capitol Hill are simply not doing their jobs. Pork is far from a new phenomenon in Washington, yet most Americans fail to understand its serious consequences. Wheeler knows the harm it does and challenges citizens to take action against lawmakers pretending to serve the public trust while sending home the bacon. Dubbed a "Hill Deep Throat" who participated in the game he now criticizes, he fills his book with evidence of Congressional wrongdoing, naming names and citing specific examples. Pointing to the extremes that have become routine in the legislative process, he focuses on defense appropriations and Congress's willingness to load down defense bills with pork, in some cases with the Pentagon's help. On the question of deciding war, he accuses today's members of Congress of lacking the character of their predecessors, often positioning themselves on both sides of the question of war against Iraq without probing the administration's justifications. Wheeler concludes with a model for reform that he calls twelve not-so-easy steps to a sober Congress.

Book excerpt: This collection of essays reflects the proceedings of a 1991 conference on "The United States Air Force: Aerospace Challenges and Missions in the 1990s," sponsored by the USAF and Tufts University. The 20 contributors comment on the pivotal role of airpower in the war with Iraq and address issues and choices facing the USAF, such as the factors that are reshaping strategies and missions, the future role and structure of airpower as an element of US power projection, and the aerospace industry's views on what the Air Force of the future will set as its acquisition priorities and strategies. The authors agree that aerospace forces will be an essential and formidable tool in US security policies into the next century. The contributors include academics, high-level military leaders, government officials, journalists, and top executives from aerospace and defense contractors.

This book was released on with total page 143 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: For nearly two decades the United States Air Force (USAF) oriented the bulk of its thinking, acquisition, planning, and training on the threat of a Soviet blitzkrieg across the inter German border. The Air Force fielded a powerful conventional arm well rehearsed in the tactics required to operate over a central European battlefield. Then, in a matter of days, the 1990 invasion of Kuwait altered key assumptions that had been developed over the previous decade and a half. The USAF faced a different foe employing a different military doctrine in an unexpected environment. Instead of disrupting a fast paced land offensive, the combat wings of the United States Central Command Air Forces (CENTAF) were ordered to attack a large, well fortified, and dispersed Iraqi ground force. The heart of that ground force was the Republican Guard Forces Command (RGFC). CENTAF's mission dictated the need to develop an unfamiliar repertoire of tactics and procedures to meet theater objectives. How effectively did CENTAF adjust air operations against the Republican Guard to the changing realities of combat? Answering that question is central to this study, and the answer resides in evaluation of the innovations developed by CENTAF to improve its operational and tactical performance against the Republican Guard. Effectiveness and timeliness are the primary criteria used for evaluating innovations.
