| Summary/Abstract |
More and more precision guided weapons are making their way to the inventory of India's armed forces as part of modernisation and acquisition programmes. The Indian Air Force (IAF) already has a bewildering inventory of precision weapons sourced from Russia, Europe, Israel and the US. Apart from munitions that have already been selected by the armed forces, new developments continue to push the envelope when it comes to the next generation of precision guided weapons.

| Summary/Abstract |
Global conflicts in 2020 have highlighted the unexpected employment of advanced ballistic missiles and unmanned aerial vehicles by developing military powers. The development of ballistic missiles by Iran, or the export of advanced drones by Turkey, are ultimately the result of the American-led revolution in military affairs that, during the Gulf War, established the potential of precision guided weapons and reconnaissance systems. In response, America’s competitors have adapted their military doctrines and developed weapons designed to both counter and copy the West’s technological advantages. As the Government of Canada implements its defence policy—Strong, Secure, and Engaged—it has promised to procure a ground-based air defence system for the Canadian Armed Forces. Careful consideration and analysis are required, however, to ensure that Canada procures the best possible solution given limited funding and a wide array of potential threats.

| Summary/Abstract |
It has been employed in every major US military conflict in recent history. Launched from surface ships or submarines, the TOMAHAWK cruise missile is a true precision weapon with a mighty impact. TOMAHAWK can fly more than 1,000mi, loiter and using GPS guidance can strike targets within just a few feet of its aim point.

| Summary/Abstract |
WHILE CLAMORING to rid the world of all its nukes, pursuing a propaganda ballyhoo that it has orchestrated with support from a large group of allies and numerous deceived champions of immediate nuclear disarmament, the United States is aiming nuclear weapons and cutting-edge conventional arms at practically all countries. This is essentially what the Pentagon's strategic "triad" program is all about - it is a plan to build an armed forces group consisting of nuclear weapons, a missile defense system and precision conventional offensive arms that would be able to carry out an unexpected destructive strike against a target in any spot on the globe. "No target on the planet or in space would be immune to American attack," said U.S. military analyst William Arkin. "The U.S. could strike without warning whenever and wherever a threat was perceived, and it would be protected by missile defenses."
