Book excerpt: The first part of this paper discusses enough about the mechanics of these weapons to give the reader a feel for how they work and provide brief descriptions of some of the more important weapons associated with non-nuclear land combat. The brief treatment here mentions only a fraction of current PGM developments; it is characteristic of the pace of development that dozens of new PGM types in many countries reach operational testing each year. The second part of the paper focusses on a number of important and so far unresolved implications of the new weapons; it discusses their likely effects on force posture and on the conduct of warfare. For example, what is their effect on the relative usefulness of the advanced tank, the complex fighter-bomber, and the big aircraft carrier. What will be the consequences for the organization of land forces, and for their tactics.

Book excerpt: This paper was prepared for the Conventional Arms Control Policy Panel of the United Nations Association of the U.S.A. It draws on a related paper prepared for the conference on 'The Impact of New Technologies on U.S. Defense Planning for Non-Nuclear Conflict, ' sponsored by the Fletcher School of Law and Diplomacy, Tufts University, held in Boston in the fall of 1974. The present paper deals much more extensively with the interrelation between the new precision weapons and theater nuclear warfare, with the prospects for using the new technologies for the defense of smaller states, with current trends in arms transfers, and with prospects for new forms of conventional arms agreements.

Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: A historical review of the requirement and use of precision guided weapons in Vietnam begins with a discussion on three current guided weapons in the Air Force inventory, the GBU-15, the GBU-24 and the AGM-65. The need for adequately trained aircrews and current constraints on that training is reviewed prior to a discussion on employment of these weapons. A look at future capabilities of weapons is enough. The conclusion reinforces the need for increased training of aircrews for future conflicts. Keywords: Guided bombs, Guided missiles, Laser weapons, Data links, Flight training, Flight crews. (sdw).

Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: This work explores the relationship between one of the most significant military developments to emerge in the past century, namely, aerial precision-guided munitions and their relationship with the just-war tradition. The thesis is straightforward. There are moral, social, and political dilemmas associated with a perfect aerial precision bombardment capability that are influenced by the just-war tradition and may not be readily apparent to political decision makers and military strategists. This work examines the historical development of aerial precision since World War I and the emergence of the just-war tradition and international law since 1625. It then identifies specific dilemmas associated with the two sorts of judgments required by the just-war tradition, namely, jus ad bellum (justice of war) and jus in bello (justice in war), and explores their ramifications. The aim of this study is to encourage moral and ethical reflection by politicians, strategists, and tacticians at all levels. The issues at hand are aerial precision doctrine, the use of the precision-guided munition as the modern aerial weapon of choice, and the influence of the just-war tradition on strategic and tactical decisions.

Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: This recently declassified 1965 monograph covers generally the so-called national guided missile program that slowly evolved between the closing months of World War II and the beginning of the Korean War. More particularly, the monograph treats the interplay among the numerous national security agencies as it concerned guided missiles. The guided missile was among the first weapon systems to be subjected to the disadvantages as well as the advantages of constant scrutiny and intervention at the interservice level. Moreover, this condition was aggravated no little by the interest, but not the forceful leadership, of a number of joint and other national security agencies a niche or more above the level of the services. In a sense, then, the guided missile became the "guinea pig" from which grew the paradoxical situation of both a centralization and proliferation of authority and responsibility over weapon development and use.
