Space Campaign for the Warfighting CINCs

Abstract

This paper presents an integrated approach for building a space campaign in support of a warfighting CINC. Current US military space operations are defined by their respective mission areas: space support, space control, force enhancement (combat support), and force application. A concept for developing a space campaign is presented for a global and regional scenario. Within the process presented here, a warfighting CINC will have the means to employ space forces in support of his overall campaign strategy. This paper provides a methodology or thought process a campaign planner can use to employ his space forces along with air, land, and naval forces to achieve his strategic objectives.
