The debate over ballistic missile defense is now beginning to focus on theater as well as strategic applications, particularly with the growth of the Soviet SS‐20 through 23 series of ballistic missiles emplaced in the Euro‐theater. A defense against such systems presents formidable but not insurmountable technical problems. It would also generate questions about the U.S. commitment to the ABM Treaty. But even a limited theater BMD could raise the cost and uncertainty of a Soviet attack with theater weapons, thus enhancing deterrence for NATO against such an attack
