Therefore, while ballistic missiles provide great range, speed, and survivability in reaching their target, their cost become prohibitive in large-scale operations which endure beyond a few hours, or in smaller-scale operations where the goals are modest and the demands on other military forces are low.
The M-X program continues to be an essential ingredient in our strategic posture, providing survivability, endurance, secure command and control and the capability to threaten targets the Soviets hold dear. Our new systems will enable U.S. strategic forces to maintain equivalence in the face of the mounting Soviet challenge.
This latter constraint will preclude achieving levels of Shock and Awe through simultaneous attack. Survivability Great cost benefits are attained if the vehicle used to deliver the attack is reusable. Keep in mind that the force built for the most demanding conflict must also be flexible for other operations.
The Presidential Directives include: PD-18: An overview of our strategic objectives PD-37: Basic space policy PD-41: Civil Defense PD-53: Survivability and endurance for telecommunications PD-57: Mobilization planning PD-58: Continuity of Government PD-59: Countervailing Strategy for General War. These policies have been devised to deter, first and foremost, Soviet aggression.

If the trick is to define the system of targets needed to conduct successful Deep Strike, it is even more important to know how to alter the initial plan as the battle unfolds and timing becomes everything. The characteristics of forces needed to carry out Deep Strike are long range, flexibility, precision, survivability, and speed.
