The report by the Congressional Research Service predicted “substantial numbers (of the missiles) could be deployed in most regions of the world in the not-too-distant future." Many of the nations with a potential to build the weapons are doing so as an offshoot of space programs, and often the technology has bean provided either by the United Stales or the Soviet Union. Many of the countries also have nuclear research programs, raising the specter of Third World nations armed with nuclear tipped missiles. The nations involved include Israel. Syria. Kgypt. Iraq, Libya, India. Pakistan. Taiwan, South Korea. North Korea. Brazil and Argentina, the study said. For purposes of the study, ballistic missiles are defined as self propelled. guided weapons that have a range “of many kilometers.” That separates them from shorter-range missiles such as shoulder-fired anti-aircraft weapons or plane-launched air-to-air missiles, which are widely available on the global arms market. The study predicted that “U.S. armed forces and those of our allies will, in the future, be confronted by hostile military forces in creasingly armed with ballistic missiles.” The study was prepared for the Senate Armed Services strategic and theater nuclear forces subcommittee, which has been studying U.S. efforts to develop defenses against non-nuclear ballistic missiles. The study noted that “some countries are on the verge pf achieving high accuracy and large.warheads with great destructive force, which would afford ah ability to eliminate pre-emptively key military forces of an opponent. This new-found capability can alter a regional balance of power.” It warned that "the trend toward ballistic missile proliferation in the Third World will probably present the United States with dif ficult policy questions.” COUPON COUPON April 30 10:00 • 4:00 167 EMU Catch It!
