SUMMARY: The Defense Science Board
(DSB) Task Force on Strategic Strike
Skills will meet in closed session on
March 9–10, 2005; April 20–21, 2005;
and May 12–13, 2005, in Arlington, VA.
The Task Force will assess the future
strategic strike force skills needs of the
Department of Defense (DoD).
The mission of the DSB is to advise
the Secretary of Defense and the Under
Secretary of Defense for Acquisition,
Technology & Logistics on scientific and
technical matters as they affect the
perceived needs of the Department of
Defense. Last summer the DSB assessed
DoD needs for future strategic strike
forces. Assessed was the application of
technology for non-nuclear weapons
systems, communications, planning
systems, and intelligence as well as the
integration of strategic strike with active
defenses as part of the new triad. This
‘‘skills’’ study will complement the
previous strategic forces study by
focusing on the people and the skills
necessary to develop, maintain, plan,
and successfully execute future strategic
strike forces. At this meeting, the Task
Force will: Assess current skills
available, both nuclear and non-nuclear
of current long-range strike forces;
identify, assess and recommend new/
modified/enhanced skill sets necessary
for successful future strike force
development, planning, and operations;
and recommend a strategy for the
successful evolution of the current skills
to those required by future strike forces.
In accordance with section 10(d) of
the Federal Advisory Committee Act,
Pub. L. No. 92–463, as amended (5
U.S.C. App. 2), it has been determined
that this Defense Science Board Task
Force meeting concerns matters listed in
5 U.S.C. 552b(c)(1) and that,
accordingly, the meeting will be closed
to the public.
