U.S. Policy on Missile Defense

1. U.S. Policy on Missile Defense 7 APRIL 2005 Presentation for the National Defense Industrial Forum Phil Jamison Office of Missile Defense Policy

2. Security Environment • More diverse, unfamiliar, threats (e.g., regional opponents, proliferation of WMD, terrorism) • Surprise likely • Deterrence unpredictable • Risks of unexpected crisis and conflicts involving one or a combination of adversaries • Offense alone inadequate for deterrence • Need mix of offense and defense • Range of options required to counter threats

3. Missile Defense and US Defense Goals • Assure allies and friends that US will not be coerced by missile threats • Dissuade potential adversaries from investing in ballistic missiles • Deter ballistic missile use by denying benefits of any attack • Defend against ballistic missiles should deterrence fail

4. U.S. Defense Strategy • Quadrennial Defense Review (QDR) • Shifts defense strategy to a capabilities-based approach • Focus more on how an adversary may fight and the means it might use rather than who adversary might be • Nuclear Posture Review (NPR) • Major change in our approach to the role nuclear offensive play in U.S. defense posture • Established a “New Triad” composed of: • Offensive strike systems (both nuclear and non-nuclear) • Missile defenses • Revitalized defense infrastructure to provide new capabilities in a timely fashion • Addition of missile defenses means U.S. no longer as heavily dependent on nuclear forces

5. Tools for Combating WMD • Counterproliferation • Interdiction • Deterrence • Defense & Mitigation • Strike • Missile Defense • Passive Defense • Nonproliferation • Diplomacy • Multilateral Regimes • Threat Reduction Cooperation • Nuclear Material Controls • Export Controls • Sanctions • Consequence Management • Respond to effects of WMD use against forces and population • MD is part of a broad, interlocking WMD Strategy • All pillars multilateral, complimentary – including MD

6. Initial Missile Defense Plan 2005 2004 2006-2008 Initial Missile Defense Capability Against North Korea Late 2004 Enhanced Capability: Add Defense Against Mideast Threat Late 2005 Additional Defensive Layer • 10 Ground-Based Interceptors (Alaska and California) • Upgrade Existing Ground-Based Radar in Alaska • Integrate Existing Sea-Based Radars • Add 10 Ground-based Interceptors (Alaska) • Upgrade Existing Radar in UK • Add Moveable Sea-Based Radar • Initial Airborne Laser Available • Add 20 Ground-BasedInterceptors (New Site) • Add Sea, Air or Ground Boost-Phase Interceptors (About 2008) • Upgrade Existing Radar in Greenland • Add New Forward Deployed Radars Long-range Threat Shorter-range Threat Capabilities Against Shorter-Range Missile Threat • Continue Deployment of Ground-Based Interceptors • Initial 5 Emergency Sea-Based Interceptors • Add 10-20 Sea-Based Interceptors • Add More Sea-Based Interceptors • Add More Capable Ground-Based Interceptors

7. Responding To Guidance • Evolutionary Missile Defense Plan I: Field an initial increment of missile defense capability (2004-2005) • Initial protection of entire U.S. from North Korea • Partial protection of the U.S. from Middle East threat • Protection of deployed forces, allies and friends • Evolutionary Missile Defense Plan II: Field next increment of missile defense capability (2006-2007) • Complete protection of U.S. from Middle East • Expand coverage to allies and friends • Increase countermeasure resistance, and increase capability against shorter-range threats

8. Responding To Guidance (cont’d) • Field modest missile defense capabilities in 2004-05 • Up to 20 Ground-based midcourse interceptors (current8; planned through 2005 ~ 18 GBIs) • Up to 20 Sea-based interceptors (current4; planned through 2005 ~ 8 SM-3s) • AEGIS ships upgraded for missile defense (current2; planned through 2005 ~ 10 S&T Destroyers; 2 Engagement Cruisers) • Continued deployment of Patriot PAC-3 units (current ~200; planned through 2005 ~ 280 PAC-3s) • Forward-based sensors (current2 -- Cobra Dane/Beale; by adding Fylingdales in 2005 – 3) • Evolutionary; add capability as threat and technology develop • Continue Research, Development and Testing • Seek cooperation with allies and friends National Security Presidential Directive 23 (December 17, 2002)

15. Building A Foundation for Missile Defense • Embedded in US strategic concepts and operations • Supports U.S. Defense Strategy • An important leg of the New Triad • Supported by military leadership • Global integrator mission assigned to the U.S. Strategic Command • Combatant Commanders preparing for initial operations • Services have begun to train and equip forces • No longer enmeshed in the ABM Treaty process • Withdrawal from ABM Treaty permits effective defenses • No new restrictions in other treaties • International Cooperation • Allied support and engagement • Commitment to continued deployment • Broad support from Congress for deployment • December 2002 announcement by President
