The Army's New Air and Missile Defense Strategy

On March 27, the U.S. Army published Army Air and Missile Defense 2028, a new report detailing the Service's air and missile defense strategy over the coming decade. Join the CSIS Missile Defense Project for a discussion on the report, the Army's priorities, and expected future developments. This event is made possible by general support to CSIS.

The FIRST time...such a concept was used by the Egyptian Army in tje 1973...war...it was the first time a separate air defense command and integrated system was established and used ...with air force interface

When Colonel Chad talk about integrating eastern block systems and the pros and cons of it, i think they have done a good job. Now 2022 every burnt out russian tank in Ukraine is the result of all these great people at work.

Thank you CSIS for having real conversations with smart professionals about topics which the MSM just can't cover properly

The US must have a strategy plan that capable 100% to deterent of enemies' Nuclear bombs. And affordable to build 100, 000 of Nuclear bombs that each bomb can be the size of 10, 000 megatons to destroy any enemy anywhere around the globe in 15 minutes without any of enemy's interceptings.

Shouldn't you be War Gaming on a constant basis and iterating the software---then doing it again? We need to develop learning systems and AI that take us into the future of the integrated battlefield. It is weird, wonderful and terrifying all at the same time.

The main lesson of the Ukraine war: we should shift much of the funds we currently spend on conventional forces to anti-ballistic missiles and other forms of nuclear defense. Let's GET REAL -- nukes are all Russia has against the US. If Russia’s conventional forces were twice as good as they are, they’d still be half as good as they need to be to give the US a run for its money. As for the threat posed by China, all signs point to its conventional forces being just as much of a paper tiger as Russia's. Realistically speaking, no country’s conventional forces pose a strategic threat to the US. Yet, against nukes the US seems content to remain helpless. The percentage of defense spending allocated to nuclear defense is so low what else can it be called other than wildly irrational and profoundly irresponsible. I heard the US has fewer bunkers than either tiny Albania or tiny Switzerland. I live in Washington DC. Yesterday I googled where to go in case of a nuclear attack. I couldn't find any useful answers. I just see comments like “go to a fall-out shelter” with no info about where fall-out shelters are, what their capacities are, which ones are deepest, best fortified, etc. If nukes were really about to fly in 15 minutes, I suppose I’d run to the closest subway stop, but to where should I ride the subway? Which direction should I head? Which subway lines would take me to an above-ground stop where death awaits? Where can one find potassium iodide pills on short notice? Why do most Americans not know that they'd need potassium iodide to protect against radiation? Why hasn’t the US spent a few hundred dollars to create a webpage with this kind of information? Why don't high school teachers spend the five minutes it'd take to tell kids what to do in the event of a nuclear attack? It’s as if long ago we decided there’s no point in even trying to survive a nuclear attack because whatever we do millions of us will die. If half of us will die, there’s no point in the other half surviving. What kind of nonsense is that?! Why do we make no effort whatsoever to save the tens of millions of American lives that could be saved? We spend astronomical sums to develop fighter jets that approach invincibility, which over the years saves up to tens of servicemen, maybe even a few hundred if there's major war. So why do we spend almost nothing to save tens of millions of civilians from being incinerated or killed by radiation in a nuclear attack?!
