The View From (Army) Space...What's the Army doing in Space?

Abstract

"The Army is developing high-quality professional Space officers to work in the joint Space force, fielding a family of ground-based Space control negation and surveillance systems, and integrating Space into terrestrial operations." If someone asks you, "What is the Army doing in Space?" that should be your answer. This edition of the Army Space Journal addresses this last item of integration of Space into terrestrial operations. The Army Space Command is the primary conductor of Space operations. We in the Force Development and Integration Center (FDIC) and your Functional Area 40 (FA 40) proponent office, the Space and Missile Defense Battle Lab (SMDBL), the Space and Missile Defense Technology Center (SMDTC), and the Army Space Program Office (ASPO) are your schoolhouse and "TRADOC-like" support.
