OSTI ID:6329977
Since President Reagan announced his commitment to explore intensively the promise of new technologies for defense against ballistic missile attack, the Strategic Defense Initiative has evolved into a vigorous RandD program involving a number of U.S. allies. The objective of SDI is to strengthen U.S. and allied security and enhance long-term strategic stability. SDI is an integral part of U.S. and Soviet nuclear arsenals. It also has important potential benefits for spinoffs to other defense programs and for the development of technologies with potentially far reaching applications in the civilian sector. This report provides a chronology that highlights key points in the evolution of U.S. strategic defense policy since March 1983.
