UNCLASSIFIED Unclassified Department of Defense Space Policy • Supports and amplifies U.S. national space policy • Space recognized as an operational medium (like land, sea and air) • Space mission areas defined: - Space Support - Force Enhancement - Space Control - Force Application UNCLASSIFIED DOD space forces support a wide range of requirements critical to the National Commander and Authorities, combatant commanders, and operational forces. The global coverage, high readiness, non-intrusive forward presence, and responsiveness of space forces enable them to provide real-time and near-real-tie support for the full range of military operations in peace, crisis, and across the entire spectrum of conflict. The most recent DOD Space Policy was promulgated in 1999. It is general enough that it is in consonance with the national space policy of 1996. The Department of Defense Space Program, an Executive Overview for FY 1998 – 2003, dated March 1997 is an excellent brochure. It provides an overview of DOD space priorities, objectives and programs. A major aspect of the DOD space policy is the focus on efforts to consolidate, integrate and coordinate the defense space sector and the intelligence space sector. Space is recognized as an operational medium. This is also recognized in Joint Vision 2010 and drafts of Joint Publication 3- 14. Four space mission areas are: • Space Support includes space launch systems and facilities along with satellite control systems. • Force Enhancement is focused on the use of space systems to provide products, services and capabilities to support military operations. Capabilities that come under force enhancement are: - Communications - Navigation - Warming and attack assessment - Environmental monitoring - Mapping, charting and geodesy - Intelligence, surveillance and reconnaissance • Space Control includes space surveillance aspace battle management, protection of space systems, prevention of an enemy’s effective use of space, and the negation of hostile space systems. • Force application refers to the use of weapons in space to apply military power against an adversary. This includes treaty compliant research and development for space based ballistic missile defense. Although force application includes the use of offensive space-based systems, the US does not have any such systems.
