Summary / Abstract (Note) | The dawn of the space age set in motion the wheels of militarisation of space by the superpowers. They were soon joined by other nations that could afford the technology either through collaboration or indigenisation.While space has been utlised as a force enabler since the decade of the 1960's it was only during the 1991 Gulf War that the true potential of space as a force multiplier for military operations was realised. |
