Theater Missile Defense in Japan: Implications for the U.S.-China-Japan Strategic Relationship

Abstract

Colonel Patrick M. O'Donogue (U.S. Army War College class of 2000) considers a topic of key importance to U.S. national security.

The question of U.S. assistance to Japan to develop and deploy a TMD is particularly complex and controversial.
