Abstract
The objective of this thesis is to demonstrate a method of relating doctrine to
requirements when considering space concepts. Service members must evaluate
solicited and unsolicited proposals from contractors, consider the advantages of space,
and then relate the advantages of space to the overall context of the proposed space
system working within current and future military organizations. To perform these
tradeoffs requires a strong foundation in how the services plan to operate in the next
conflict; the AirLand Battle and Maritime Strategy provide this strong foundation and
will be examined. The Army's Concept Based Requirements System (CBRS) relates
doctrine to requirements; it will be described as a recommended method for
determining joint requirements. To illustrate how CBRS will operate when considering
joint space requirements, the concept of a space-based laser designator is explored.
