Essay / Research Paper Abstract
A 13 page paper discussing the airborne and space-based antiballistic lasers. The military engagements that the US has been involved in over the past decade have highlighted to the American people the advances that technology has introduced into combat and defense. One of the most promising developments for the future, the airborne laser, still is in development. Scheduled for testing in 2004, the antiballistic tool is controversial, but not nearly so much as its counterpart, the space-based laser. Each of these defense lasers were being researched simultaneously, but work on the space-based version recently was halted indefinitely. Both approaches to laser technology, however, illustrate the depth in which US defense is being assessed. Bibliography lists 13 sources.

Many within the effort believed that the US should have not discontinued the war when it did, but should have continued into Iraq to find its leader and remove
him from a position of power. The US was not acting alone, however, and the larger body of the United Nations Security Council influenced the decision to terminate hostilities
when the original objective - the liberation of Kuwait - had been reached and assured. One of the lasting results of the Gulf
War was an enhancement of the US in the eyes of the worlds nations. It has been a tradition of the US since winning independence to provide a military
presence when an absolute injustice has occurred and the perpetrators obviously intend to continue on that path. As one of the worlds leading powers, the US has been criticized
