Description
Summary:The theater missile defense debate, North Korea's ballistic missile program, and ongoing discussions concerning South Korea's next-generation combat aircraft have heightened awareness of the importance of aerospace power to South Korea's defenses. To assess these and related issues, the Second International Air Power Conference was held June 11-12, 1999, in Seoul. The conference addressed South Korea's military force structure in the 21st century, the role of air and space power in future deterrence and defense missions, the ballistic missile threat, and collaboration on the development of air power. It is expected that the findings in this document, a compilation of the 15 papers delivered at the conference, will have important implications for South Korea's national security, defense planning, force structuring, and air defense modernization programs.
