Center for Strategic and Budgetary Assessments
Project Title
For a project on hypersonic missiles and strategic stability
Date
Sep. 07, 2017
Duration
60 months
Description
The Center for Strategic and Budgetary Analysis (CSBA) has done extensive work on how evolving technologies have led to and resolved periods of nuclear instability. This project will focus on advances in hypersonic weapons in Russia, China, and the United States, and how they may affect nuclear stability. Due to their short time of flight, maneuverability, and target ambiguity, hypersonic missiles may create new challenges to strategic stability. CSBA will use scenario-based workshops and wargaming methodology to understand how these capabilities could challenge existing assumptions about nuclear operations.
