Limitations on ballistic missile defense—Past and possibly future

Bulletin of the Atomic Scientists, 2018
The ABM Treaty is unlikely to be revived any time soon. But it is possible that restraints on US deployment of ballistic missile defenses could make them seem less threatening to the effectiveness of Russia’s and China’s nuclear deterrents and set the ...

Forecasting Costs of U.S. Ballistic Missile Defense Against a Major Nuclear Strike

Defence and Peace Economics
How many dollars would the United States need to spend on its ballistic missile defense (BMD) for each dollar the attacker spends to launch land-based intercontinental ballistic missiles (ICBMs) armed with nuclear warheads?

Ballistic-missile defense radars

IEEE Spectrum, 1970
Ballistic-missile defense has been continuously researched in the United States for the past 14 years. The Safeguard system itself is an outgrowth of both the Nike?Zeus system and later ballistic-missile components developed by various government agencies.

Space-Based Ballistic-Missile Defense

Scientific American, 1984
For two decades both the U.S. and the U.S.S.R. have been vulnerable to a devastating nuclear attack, inflicted by one side on the other in the form of either a first strike or a retaliatory second strike. This situation did not come about as the result of careful military planning. “Mutual assured destruction” is not a policy or a doctrine but rather a

A multi-objective optimization of ballistic and cruise missile fire plans based on damage calculations from missile impacts on an airfield defended by an air defense artillery network

The Journal of Defence Modeling and Simulation: Applications, Methodology, Technology, 2018
This paper presents a new methodology for optimizing missile fire plan parameters in order to maximize the damage caused to an airfield by the impacts of ballistic and cruise missiles that leak through an air defense artillery network using weaponeering ...

Defense against ballistic missiles

30th Aerospace Sciences Meeting and Exhibit, 1992
Abstract : The topic of my lecture is defense against ballistic missiles armed with nuclear warheads. I would like to start by discussing for a short time the air defense problem and how it was solved during the Second World War. Ground based defenses against aircraft using anti-aircraft artillery turned out not to be very effective.

Future challenges to ballistic missile defense

IEEE Spectrum, 1997
The United States is in the midst of an ambitious effort to build and deploy a wide range of ballistic missile defense systems. Proponents of the systems argue that they will be effective against a host of current and postulated threats from ballistic missiles.
