The proliferation of missile and WMD technologies around the world makes effective TMD a critical prerequisite for successful joint operations. The mere presence of hostile theater missile capabilities in an operational area, especially if they pose a WMD threat, creates a significant challenge for the operational commander. Future CINOs will have no choice but to plan for Theater Missile Defense if they are operating in an area equipped with theater missiles. A single service can not do it alone; it must be joint to succeed. Each service is developing useful active defense systems that, individually do not provide the total solution. We must find a way to integrate these systems into a coherent whole to counter the growing TM threat.
