Hey Paul,
Thought this might interest you. Space historian Curtis Peebles reported this. Air Force Space Command in 1993 established a Space Warfare Center at Falcon AFB in Colorado to conduct the Air Force Tactical Exploitation of National Capabilities program. The TENCAP programs reflect the future shape of Air Force activities. These include efforts to demonstrate:
Talon Command: Project Shield, (description) Project Hook (description)
Talon Ready: Project Scene (description) , Project Spectrum (description) , Project Stamp (description)
Talon Shooter: Project Sword (relaying information from space systems directly to tactical aircraft in near real-time, via normal communications channels. In the first demonstration, tactical information was passed to an aircraft making an attack on a simulated surface-to-air missile site. The aircraft then fired HARM (High-speed Anti-Radiation Missile) missiles which destroyed the site, even though the aircraft's own systems had not yet detected it.), Project Lance (description) , Project Zebra (description) .
Regards,
Darth [Reader]
