The Pentagon on Friday released its “National Military Strategy for Combating Weapons of Mass Destruction.” The 30-page booklet “defines a strategic endstate, military strategic objectives, and the missions and means to achieve them,” wrote Defense Secretary Donald Rumsfeld in the foreword. The military strategy is meant to complement the National Strategy to Combat Weapons of Mass Destruction released in 2002.
The Space Development Agency says it’s on track to issue its next batch of missile warning and tracking satellite contracts this month after those awards were delayed by the Pentagon’s decision to divert funds from the agency to pay troops during this fall’s prolonged government shutdown.
