Narrated by Alexander Scourby and directed by Lt. Frank Peele and written by Peele and Robert Sibley, this 1978 U.S. Navy film, "Pride Runs Deep" was produced on behalf of the Chief of Naval Operations. It presents an in-depth look at the life of a submariner, from missile and torpedo exercises, to mess and recreation. It explains in great detail the difference between fast attack submarines and Polaris ballistic missile submarines. The film was formally called SITREP 13, with...

Produced during the Cold War "Aerospace Communications" is a film that shows the dreaded scenario of a nuclear war unfolding between the United States and another nation capable of launching a nuclear strike. Hosted by actor James Stewart, who served in the U.S. Air Force as a bomber pilot, the film describes the Ballistic Missile Early Warning System (BMEWS), Mid-Canada Line, and the Pine Line as well as the Distant Early Warning (DEW) line and the nation's new satellite-based...

This thesis investigates the employment of Hyper Velocity Projectiles (HVPs) as interceptors for the Army's Air and Missile Defense (AMD) enterprise in the 2030'2035 timeline. The research recommends a proposed systems architecture for the incorporation of an HVP Gun System (HVPGS) to an AMD enterprise operating in a contested environment, with emphasis on the operating characteristics of the HVPs and their integration onto the firing platform. The study then develops a realistic operational...

On March 23, 1983, then-President Ronald Reagan challenged a group of engineers and scientists to make nuclear weapons impotent and obsolete. This challenge led to the beginning of a new era in space technology and strategic defense, thus creating the Strategic Defense Initiative (SDI), better known as Star Wars. By 1984, several studies had begun to show that software in conjunction with Battle Management/Command, Control, and Communications techniques would play a major role in determining...

The Department of Defense (DoD) is developing a Ballistic Missile Defense System (BMDS) based on a layered defense that employs complementary sensors, weapons and C2 elements integrated by software into a system-of-systems to engage and destroy threat ballistic missiles through all phases of its flight. Inherent to the ultimate success of the BMDS will be the timely execution of the kill chain process against threat ballistic missiles. In this thesis we will apply the Unified Software...

With the proliferation of hostile theater ballistic missiles (TBMs), the Department of Defense has focused on attack operations as a means of ballistic missile defense (BMD). This thesis develops a stochastic simulation of a network for analyzing and comparing BMD strike operations. Applying knowledge of mobile launch site procedures, we construct a TBM left-of-launch network (LLN) model using discrete-event simulation software. This comprehensive network models system components from the...

For the last thirty years, many strategists have considered the 1972 Anti-ballistic Missile (ABM) Treaty as the foundation for arms control. Others have insisted that its existence perpetuates American vulnerability to a ballistic missile attack. Since its inception, the ABM Treaty has been amended only once, but the geopolitical structure of the world has changed dramatically. The Cold War has ended and many new threats have emerged. The once bipolar world, which is reflected in the treaty,...

The key uncertainty within the Strategic Defense Initiative is not whether a multitiered ballistic missile defense can be designed and implemented but rather in the possibility that the intercept system can be readily countered. Additionally, the viability of SDI is dependent upon its cost effectiveness; a defense should not be considered if it can be overcome at a significantly lesser cost. To quantify these uncertainties, the Strategic Defense Initiative is overviewed at a macro level....

Unattended ground sensors have a tremendous potential for improving Tactical Ballistic Missile Attack Operations. To date, however, this potential has gone unrealized primarily due to a lack of confidence in the systems and a lack of tactical doctrine for their employment. This thesis provides analyses to demonstrate the effective use of sensor technology and provides recommendations as to how they may best be employed. The probabilistic decision model reports the optimal size array for each of...

Given Moscow's revanchist foreign policy, its willingness to use military force to achieve its goals, and its annexation of Crimea in 2014, the strategic threat Russia presents to NATO's Allies in the Baltic region has become acute. The Alliance must find a means to deter Moscow from attempting a similar action in the former Soviet Baltic republics that are now NATO member states. This thesis has identified regional nuclear deterrence as the best means of addressing this threat, and it has...

These paradigms are declaratory policy, procurement policy, employment policy, and deployment policy. This thesis began by analyzing the history of...
