Space has been a vital part of our national defense for over two decades. Currently, the US relies on space-based assets to perform many critical functions including surveillance, intelligence collection, communication and navigation. The Soviets also view space as an integral part of their national defense. While the Soviets do not rely on their space based assets as much as the US, the number, complexity, and value of their satellites are increasing rapidly. Accordingly, the Soviets are relying more on these assets. As these space assets become more critical to the US and USSR, the possibility of a space conflict becomes more likely. There may come a time when it becomes important to deny the Soviet's use of space for military purposes, and at the same time, preserve US space assets. A space conflict would probably precede, or possibly accompany, the outbreak of hostilities on earth.
