For the first time, the CSIS Defense and Security Department’s HTK Series welcomes a featured guest, Senator Deb Fischer (R-NE), to discuss the most consequential issues defining the future of U.S. strategic forces and her priorities as Chair of the Senate Armed Services Committee’s Strategic Forces subcommittee. What is fundamentally different about today’s strategic threat environment and how is it reshaping U.S. approaches to deterrence and our nuclear forces? What should we take away from recent conflicts—from Ukraine to Operation Midnight Hammer and Epic Fury—about the evolving roles of strategic air power, air and missile defense, and space and cyber capabilities in future warfare? Where are the greatest pressures on resources and priorities across nuclear modernization, emerging technologies, and expanding missions such as missile defense and space control? To explore these questions and more, join Kari Bingen, director of the CSIS Aerospace Security Project, Heather Williams, director of the CSIS Project on Nuclear Issues, and Tom Karako, director of the CSIS Missile Defense Project, as they sit down with Senator Fischer for an HTK Series conversation on the future of U.S. strategic forces. This event is made possible by general support to CSIS. --------------------------------------------- A nonpartisan institution, CSIS is the top national security think tank in the world.
