Star Wars cut brings uncertainty
WASHINGTON (At*) — At the end of World War
II. a team of American military officers traveled to
Europe to study Germany's use of ballistic missiles
against the Allies. Its re< ommendation develop
U S defenses against these new weapons
Nearly half of a century later, after tens of billions
of dollars s|Mint on research, the United Stales has
no national anti-missile defense And while the
spending goes on. the question remains whether
such n defense ever Will l*e built
Bv dot laring "the end of the Star Wars era Thurs
day. Defense Secretary 1-es Aspin made official what
many had already surmised if an anti-missile sys
tem is built, it will not lie the spa< e-based shield
that Ronald Reagan envisioned when he started the
Strategic Defense Initiative, or SD1. in 1‘tH.t
Aspm asserted lluil the Clinton administration
will press ahead with a less exotic version of mis
sile defense It would use radars, sensors and
grcnind-lmsc'd interceptor roc kets to protec t U S ter
ritorv ng.imst missile attacks
"These c hanges represent a shift away from a
c rash program for deployment of spac e-based
weapons designed to meet a threat that has reced
ed to the vanishing point the- all-out surprise
atlai k from the former Soviet Union." Aspin said
But even as he lauded the virtues of this approach.
Aspin made no firm commitment to building notion
al defenses And some believers in the need for such
defenses soy Aspin in realit y is pushing it even fur
ther into the future
"In some sense, this is a charade." said Henry
C-ooper. one of only three men who directed the SDI
organization during its 10-year life.
Cooper, who resigned shortly before President
Hill Clinton took office, said Friday he was not both
ered by Aspin's dm ision to declare an end to SDI
and to rename the Pentagon office that ran it.
This is a bunch of baloney, coming in and sug
gesting they 're making big changes now," Cooper
said, noting that the shift away from space-based
defenses had begun while he was SDI chief dur
ing the Hush administration
The troubling aspect of the Clinton administra
tion's approach, in Cooper's view, is that it provides
no push for development of a ground-based defense.
He noted that the administration is asking Congress
for $1.2 billion for this project for 1994—about
S4H0 million less than is lieing spent this year and
about (>() peri ent less than recommended Iasi year
"They are bash alls i lilting the programs very
severely that they claim to he supporting.” Cooper
said.
