description This Congressional Budget Office (CBO) study - prepared at the request of the Subcommittee on Emerging Threats and Capabilities of the Senate Armed Services Committee - looks at technical, operational, and cost issues related to using a boost-phase intercept (BPI) system to defend the United States against intercontinental ballistic missiles. The study compares the strengths, weaknesses, and costs of five alternative designs for a BPI system - three surface-based and two space-based - that span a range of performance characteristics. In keeping with CBO's mandate to provide objective, impartial analysis, this study makes no recommendations.
