Ballistic missile proliferation continues to expand worldwide. In response to this threat, the Missile Defense Agency has fielded a ballistic missile defense (BMD) system to protect Americans from missile attacks. Nevertheless, conflicts concerning the particulars of BMD operational command and control persist. Some advocate that Strategic Command should be the global commander for BMD. On the other hand, regional combatant commanders could maintain a standing joint task force to tailor, integrate, and streamline BMD operations. An analysis of the operational factors of BMD in terms of time, space, and force will help substantiate this thesis and lead to recommendations for determining the optimal BMD command and control architecture under each regional combatant commander.
