Defense Studies Killer Satellite Intercept System
The Defense Department will study the feasibility of a satellite intercept system following Soviet tests. Air Force and missile systems officials in Los Angeles issued a May 26 request for proposals from industry, with at least three companies to be chosen for competitive studies.

The Soviet Union has demonstrated space weapons and the United States trails in space weaponry, including the operational fractional orbital bombardment system.
