See posts from "Joe S." on "full spectrum dominance". Certain
elements in the Pentagon have for quite some time now wanted to create
a "space force", like the Air Force. They insist that dominance in
space is necessary to keep the US forces number one on the ground.
Whoopedy do! Now Lockheed doesn't have to try to convince the
Pentagon that b-line fighters are worth 50 million more than they
should be charging...
