Book excerpt: The conclusion of an American presence in Iraq and Afghanistan in 2021 is an appropriate moment to revisit the history and evolution of the use of satellites and space activities by the U.S. Air Force in support of this military conflict. Prior to Operation Desert Storm, the contribution of space systems was not widely understood or appreciated. Desert Storm, by contrast, involved the full arsenal of military space systems. It was the first large-scale integration of space systems in support of warfighting. Written by military historians, this book features a series of articles designed to provide an understanding of how we got where we are today. It addresses military space capabilities during: Operations Desert Shield and Desert Storm; Operation Allied Force in Bosnia; The evolution of space policy during the 1990s and early 2000s; Space support for homeland defense activities in the aftermath of the 9/11 terrorist attacks on New York and Washington DC; and preparations for and space support during Operations Iraqi Freedom and Enduring Freedom. Today, space is a vital component of military operations from the command level to the foot soldier and is recognized as a critical part of the national defense plan of the United States.

Book excerpt: Since the Cold War, outer space has become of strategic importance for nations looking to seize the ultimate high ground. World powers establishing a presence there must consider, among other things, how they will conduct warfare in orbit. Leaders must dispense with "Buck Rogers" notions about operations in space and realize that policies there will have serious ramifications for geopolitics. How should nations view space? How should they fight there? What would space warfare look like and how should strategists approach it? Offering critical observations regarding this unique theater of international relations, a military professional explores the strategic implications as human affairs move beyond Earth's atmosphere.

Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: This book examines the recent shift in US space policy and the forces that continually draw the US back into a space-technology security dilemma. The dual-use nature of the vast majority of space technology, meaning of value to both civilian and military communities and being unable to differentiate offensive from defensive intent of military hardware, makes space an area particularly ripe for a security dilemma. In contrast to previous administrations, the Obama Administration has pursued a less militaristic space policy, instead employing a strategic restraint approach that stressed multilateral diplomacy to space challenges. The latter required international solutions and the United States, subsequently, even voiced support for an International Code of Conduct for Space. That policy held until the Chinese anti-satellite (ASAT) test in 2013, which demonstrated expanded Chinese capabilities. This volume explores the issues arising from evolving space capabilities across the world and the security challenges this poses. It subsequently discusses the complexity of the space environment and argues that all tools of national power must be used, with some degree of balance, toward addressing space challenges and achieving space goals. This book will be of much interest to students of space policy, defence studies, foreign policy, security studies and IR.

This book was released on 1997 with total page 54 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: U.S. Space Command (USSPACECOM) began an outreach program in 1993 to better support the regional warfighting Commanders in Chief (CINCs). The main emphasis of this initiative was to train a group of officers from within the command on exactly what space had to offer the warfighter, and deploy them to the individual CINCs to integrate space into their resident missions, tasks and operations plans. These officers formed what came to be known as the Joint Space Support Teams (JSST). The customer oriented approach that began to develop by the use of these teams was in no small measure spurred on a few years earlier by the dramatic, yet apparently ad hoc methodology of the Scud warning reports transmitted to coalition forces during the Gulf War. From this inauspicious beginning, many planners and operational commanders wondered what other space products were available to support or enhance the warfighters efforts. In this paper, the organization of the JSST teams, their mission, and exactly what they had to bring to the table in the way of enhancing the waging of war will be examined. Furthermore, interspersed throughout the discussion will be a look into what is now occurring to improve that support. Finally, the conclusion will briefly discuss what could, or should, be done to better support the warfighter in the future.

Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Space is truly the next frontier for the United States and other technology-dependent nations. With the increasing investment in space systems by both the military and commercial sectors, space is rapidly becoming a vital national interest to the U.S. Protecting that infrastructure will eventually become critical to the national security of our nation as this emerging technology becomes integrated into every facet of our society. USCINCSPACE maintains that space must be declared an Area of Responsibility (AOR) to allow him to protect U.S. space lines of communications (Splocs) and fulfill his other Presidentially-directed responsibilities. Using a systematic approach, this paper argues that Title 10 of the U.S. Code and the most recent revision to the Unified Command Plan give the CINC adequate authority to accomplish his assigned mission. Declaring space an AOR would add little military value to the warfighter in the near term. The downside of such a declaration, however, could be detrimental to the national security of the United States. While the U.S. is working diligently to achieve strategic stability with Russia in this post-cold war world, designating space an AOR could send the message that the U.S. intends to militarize space. The Russians, subsequently, would have little incentive to ratify START III and to reduce their nuclear arsenal to "safe" levels. Therefore, the unintended consequence of declaring space an AOR could be the resumption of the nuclear arms race characteristic of the cold-war era.

Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: "The Army has been involved with space-based military operations for well over a half-century. During this time, space operations have changed from a realm exclusive to scientists and engineers, to highly classified activities largely unknown to the general population, to the unveiling of space-based communication, imagery, surveillance, and environment capabilities that have become a foundation for all modern warfare. Today, such support is so ingrained into daily operations that most soldiers, sailors, airmen, and marines assume it has been, and always will be, available for their use. But with such reliance comes vulnerability that potential adversaries may try to exploit. The evolution of Army space operations is well documented in many sources, thus this monograph serves not as a comprehensive history or detailed critique of the myriad accomplishments. Rather, it serves as a primer for current and future space-based operations to provide senior policymakers, decisionmakers, military leaders, and their respective staffs an overall appreciation for existing Army space capabilities and the challenges, opportunities, and risks associated with their use in joint operations"--Publisher's web site.

Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Space has been militarized for over four decades. Should it now be weaponized? This incisive and insightful book argues that it should not. Since the cold war, space has come to harbor many tools of the tactical warfighter. Satellites have long been used to provide strategic communication, early warning of missile launch, and arms control verification. The U.S. armed forces increasingly use space assets to locate and strike targets on the battlefield. To date, though, no country deploys destructive weapons in space, for use against space or Earth targets, and no country possesses ground-based weapons designed explicitly to damage objects in space. The line between nonweaponization and weaponization is blurry, to be sure—but it has not yet been crossed. In Ne ither Star Wars nor Sanctuary, Michael E. O'Hanlon makes a forceful case for keeping it this way. The United States, with military space budgets of around $20 billion a year, enjoys a remarkably favorable military advantage in space. Pursuing a policy of space weaponization solely in order to maximize its own military capabilities would needlessly jeopardize this situation by likely hastening development of space weapons in numerous countries. It would also reaffirm the prevalent international image of the United States as a global cowboy of sorts, too quick to reach for the gun. O'Hanlon therefore asserts that U.S. military space policy should focus on delaying any movement toward weaponization, without foreclosing the option of developing space weapons in the future, if necessary. Extreme positions that would either hasten to weaponize space or permanently rule this out are not consistent with technological realities and U.S. security interests.

Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: This book examines the rise of great power competition in space, including the relevant and practical space strategies for China, Russia, the United States, and other countries. The work discusses the concepts and writings of past strategists, such as Thucydides, Sun Tzu, and Clausewitz, in relation to warfare initiated in or extending into space. This analysis underscores why polities initiate war based upon an assessment of fear, honor, and interest, and explains why this will also be true of war in space. Based upon the timeless strategic writings of the past, the book uncovers the strategy of space warfare, along with the concepts of deterrence, dissuasion, and the inherent right of self-defense, and outlines strategies for great, medium, and emerging space powers. Additionally, it highlights changes needed to space strategy based upon the Law of Armed Conflict, norms of behavior, and Rules of Engagement. The work also examines advancements and emerging trends in the commercial space sector, as well as what these changes mean for the implementation of a practical space strategy. Given the rise of great power competition in space, this work presents a space strategy based upon historical experience. This book will be of much interest to students of space policy, strategic studies, and International Relations.

Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: This book, Space Capstone Publication Spacepower: Doctrine for Space Forces, is capstone doctrine for the United States Space Force and represents our Service's first articulation of an independent theory of spacepower. This publication answers why spacepower is vital for our Nation, how military spacepower is employed, who military space forces are, and what military space forces value. In short, this capstone document is the foundation of our professional body of knowledge as we forge an independent military Service committed to space operations. Like all doctrine, the SCP remains subject to the policies and strategies that govern its employment. Military spacepower has deterrent and coercive capacities - it provides independent options for National and Joint leadership but achieves its greatest potential when integrated with other forms of military power. As we grow spacepower theory and doctrine, we must do so in a way that fosters greater integration with the Air Force, Army, Navy, Marine Corps, and Coast Guard. It is only by achieving true integration and interdependence that we can hope to unlock spacepower's full potential.
