OVERVIEW
� NMD And TMD Distinction No Longer Exists
� Limited Defense Against Long-range Threat And Robust Defense Against Shorter Range Threats
3ms-104058 / 062502
WITHDRAWAL FROM ABM TREATY
� Opens Missile Defense Options For Greater Effectiveness
� Improves Ability To Test More Realistically
� Makes Possible New Models For Allies And Friends To Participate In The Missile Defense Program

Layered Defenses
� Multiple Engagement Opportunities Increase Likelihood Of Success
� Complicates Efforts Of Adversaries� Overcomes Countermeasures
� Defends Wide Regions� Continuous, Global
Coverage
� Defends Localized Areas and Critical Assets
� Destroys Missile Regardless Of Aim Point � Potential For Global Defense
