, “Space Defense Program Gets Extra Funding”, Washington Post Page A19,http://www.washingtonpost.com/wp-dyn/content/article/2007/11/11/AR2007111101173.html [Bapodra]While wrestling with wars in Iraq and Afghanistan, the Pentagon is preparing weapons tofight the next battle from space, according to information in the 621-page, House-Senateconference report on the fiscal 2008 defense appropriations bill.The $459 billion bill, which awaits President Bush's signature, provides $100 million for a new "prompt global strike" program that could deliver a conventional, precision-guidedwarhead anywhere in the world within two hours. It takes funds away from developmentof a conventional warhead for the Navy's submarine-launched Trident IntercontinentalBallistic Missile and from an Air Force plan for the Common Aero Vehicle.The new program, dubbed Falcon, for "Force Application and Launch from CONUS,"centers on a small-launch-vehicle concept of the Defense Advanced Research ProjectsAgency. The agency describes Falcon as a "a reusable Hypersonic Cruise Vehicle (HCV)capable of delivering 12,000 pounds of payload at a distance of 9,000 nautical miles from[the continental United States] in less than two hours."Hypersonic speed is far greater than the speed of sound. The reusable vehicle beingcontemplated would "provide the country with significant capability to conductresponsive missions with quick turn-around sortie rates while providing aircraft-likeoperability and mission-recall capability," according to DARPA.The vehicle would be launched into space on a rocket, fly on its own to a target, deliver its payload and return to Earth. In the short term, a small launch rocket is beingdeveloped as part of Falcon. It eventually would be able to boost the hypersonic vehicleinto space. But in the interim, it will be used to launch small satellites within 48 hours'notice at a cost of less than $5 million a shot.
