National Air Defense: Challenges, Solution Profiles, and Technology Needs
October 2004
R. C. Evans, The MITRE Corporation
ABSTRACT
Past and current air defence systems have performed well in conflict, but with less than the desired reliability
in peacetime. Future systems will be challenged by a more stressing problem: defence vs. unconventional
threats in "peacetime". An air defence modernization strategy built to buy-down near-term risks and invest
in technologies intended to permit cost-sensitive designs for next-generation systems are key to an economical
approach to the challenge.
