DISTRIBUTION A: Approved for public release; distribution is unlimited. Document created: 8 March 02 The Revolution in Military Affairs and Directed Energy Weapons by Matthew Mowthorpe A Revolution in Military Affairs (RMA) occurs when a nation's military seizes an opportunity to transform its strategy, military doctrine, training, education, organization, equipment, operations, and tactics to achieve decisive military results in fundamentally new ways. Directed energy weapons (DEW) are a technology area that has been neglected in this RMA. The technologies associated with DEWs have been maturing, while political support and new expenditures from Congress are making deployment of DEW systems in the near future a realistic possibility. The use of DEWs on the modern battlefield would contribute to the current RMA. DEWs will be able to provide defense against short-range artillery shells and theater/intercontinental missiles, as well as anti-satellite capabilities that will contribute to a space control strategy. This article examines advances in DEW technology and the new military missions and roles that will be enabled by these new weapon systems. Space Based Lasers for Ballistic Missile Defense

Two years earlier on Feb. 16, 1983 the complex was named a State of New Mexico historical monument. The designation was based on the fact the launch complex was this country's first major rocket launch facility. Work conducted at LC-33 started a chain of events on the United States that led to orbiting satellites, manned space flight, trips to the moon and the space shuttle. The complex consisted of a blockhouse, several concrete launching pads, a 100-foot launching tower for small rockets, gantry and blast pit.

What might Las Cruces be like today if White Sands Missile Range had never existed? One obvious consequence can be found at New Mexico State University. The Physical Science Laboratory at the school was specifically founded by Dr. George Gardiner to support missions at the missile range and certainly would be an empty space on campus without the range. The lab has since evolved into a world-class facility that dabbles in everything from state-of-the-art electronics to modeling and simulation to high-altitude ballooning.

Photo for the Sun-News by Rudy Gutierrez/El Paso Times El Paso leaders boast that Fort Bliss — home to the U.S. Army’s Air Defense Artillery — has room to expand as the military considers what posts to close or grow in the upcoming Base Realignment and Closure process. But the leaders aren’t tipping their hands when asked what units might be absorbed into the West Texas post as the nation redefines its defense strategy for the 21st century. “It would not be appropriate to say we want to target one military installation,” said Bob Cook, chief executive of the Greater El Paso Chamber of Commerce. “Our message is to simply accentuate Fort Bliss’ assets. We know that the No. 1 criteria the Base Realignment and Closure commission is looking at is military value.”

I've already entered Rockets of the World and at previous NARAM's.

I submit this significant new work as our Research and Development entry. I present modeling data on 48 rocket vehicles here, along with a summary of the efforts that went into their publication and the results of their publication.

Phillips Laboratory Press Release #95-51 July 7, 1995 DC-X Rotates Its Nose For A Successful Test 7 July 1995 PL RELEASE NO. 95-51 CONTACT: Connie Rankin PHONE: 505-846-1911 WHITE SANDS MISSILE RANGE, N.M. The DC-X successfully pitched its nose 10 degrees below the horizon at 8,200 feet, rotated 180 degrees and traveled 2,100 feet down range. The experimental single-stage-to-orbit rocket continued to push the limits during its eighth flight test today at 7:02 a.m. MDT at the Army's White Sands Missile Range. The McDonnell Douglas vehicle is managed by the Air Force Phillips Laboratory in support of the NASA reusable launch vehicle program. Flight test support is provided by the Air Force Space and Missile Systems Center's Space and Missile Test and Evaluation Directorate. At the conclusion of the flight, the DC-X was officially turned over to NASA. Lt. Col. Jess Sponable presented a plaque attesting to the turnover to NASA Program Manager Dan Dumbacher. McDonnell Douglas will integrate key advanced technology components into the vehicle under a contract with NASA. The upgraded vehicle will be called the DC-XA. In early 1996, the DC-XA will return to White Sands Missile Range for static hot fire and flight tests that could began as early as mid-1996. Phillips Laboratory will act as NASA's Deputy for Flight Test and Operations, managing the final DC-XA flight tests.

Light weight, high strength materials will be used in DC-XA's new liquid oxygen tank fabricated from aluminum lithium and liquid hydrogen tank constructed from graphite composite. These components will be integrated into the McDonnell Douglas-built reusable rocket and Huntington Beach, Calif. In 1996, the DC-X will be returned to White Sands Missile Range in January as the DC-XA, and a new series of flight tests will resume in April under a series of agreements awarded by NASA. The tests will continue to demonstrate the feasibility of a reusable rocket which has aircraft-like operability and maintainability. The Delta Clipper has demonstrated fast turnaround by being readied for flight in seven days. In addition, the reusable launch vehicle's engines were test fired twice within eight hours.

Using NASA's Hubble Space Telescope, Hale-Bopp's nucleus was measured at roughly three to four times larger than that of comet Halley (six miles in diameter), making it one of the largest comets ever observed. Researchers are studying Hale-Bopp to better understand comets, primitive bodies of loosely-packed ice and dust that many scientists consider the best-preserved remnants of the early solar system.

Chiodo served on the independent government assessment team chartered by NASA that assessed the agencyËs Quality Assurance Programs for two of the five Space Shuttle Program elements, the Orbiter and External Tank programs. Team co-chairs Vernon W. Wessel and David Collins called ChiodoËs participation Ÿan important step in returning our country to human space flight.÷ The teamËs report, which was published in January, found that the Quality Program that exists today was good based on previous ground rules when the program was formulated. However the report recommended that NASA reassess the Quality Program based on new ground rules, and institutes a program that fulfills those new requirements.

Satellites dot the barren landscape at White Sands Missile Range. There aren't many places where you can stand on a spot where the world changed, fundamentally, in an instant. But you can do it at this isolated location in the New Mexico desert, where the scientists and engineers of the Manhattan Project detonated the world's first atomic bomb. The men who developed and built the bomb at laboratories in Los Alamos, New Mexico, called it the "gadget." It was a plutonium bomb, its explosive force created when precisely timed detonations of TNT fused plutonium in the device's core, creating an atomic chain reaction and releasing enormous amounts of energy. Under the direction of physicist J. Robert Oppenheimer, the Los Alamos team finished their gadget by July 1945. Project leaders decided to conduct the first test at a site on the Alamogordo Bombing and Gunnery Range some 200 miles to the south. At 5:29 in the morning of July 16 they detonated the bomb, which was so powerful it broke windows 120 miles away. "I am become death, the destroyer of worlds," said Oppenheimer, quoting from a Hindu text. Atomic bombs dropped on the Japanese cities of Hiroshima and Nagasaki helped bring World War II to an end, but, in the decades since, the world has been haunted by the specter of nuclear war.
