Abstract

The emerging capabilities of rogue nations to employ weapons of mass destruction (nuclear, chemical, or biological) is now front and center and poses a serious threat of regional instabilities. The more likely means of employing these weapons include cruise missiles and ballistic missiles and there is now an expanding effort on countering such missiles. This paper focuses on countering ballistic missiles.
