While the Persian Gulf War confirmed the political and strategic utility of using ballistic missiles as a terror weapon, the effect of ballistic missiles on tactical operations has received much less attention. Despite growing evidence of technological advances in guidance and warhead systems that warrant concern, much of the current literature ignores the operational and tactical impact of ballistic missiles on the battlefield. Even the US Army's most forward looking document, US Army Training and Doctrine Command (TRADOC) Pamphlet 525-5, Force XXI Operations (1 August 1994), disregards the impact of these weapons on tactical operations. Thus, this monograph breaks new ground and demonstrates why military leaders and planners should pay more attention to the emerging tactical threat from ballistic missiles, unconventional warheads, and weapons of mass destruction.
