Space Power Integration: Perspectives from Space Weapons Officers

Abstract

In March 2005 the first Space Weapons Officer Air and Space Integration Conference was held at Maxwell Air Force Base, Alabama, as a joint effort between Air Force Space Command. As then-AFSPC commander General Lance Lord stated in the invitation to the cadre of space weapons officers (SWO), "We want to hear from the Space Weapons Officers on the best way to do business? Differing views are okay. Articulate pros/cons and support with past experiences--what's worked, what hasn't." General Lord envisioned a regular event where SWOs would gather in the spirit of the Air Corps Tactical School to discuss, argue, and generate new ideas that could then be tested in war games and exercises for incorporation into doctrine organization, strategy, tactics, and procedures.
