Dr. John S. Foster told the Senate Armed Services Committee that the Sentinel antiballistic missile system is the first step toward a defense that could protect the United States from a Soviet attack and also address a Chinese ICBM threat. He noted current plans aim to deny damage and protect 50 major U.S. cities, with Wheeler advising a broader shield in the future.
