Allied by Design: Defining a Path to Thoughtful Allied Space Power

In this report, the authors assess the goals, organization, and activities of the U.S. Department of Defense space enterprise on allied-related space activities. They evaluate six allies — Australia, Canada, France, Germany, Japan, and the United Kingdom — to determine their interest in, potential for, and perspectives on cooperation with the United States. Their findings reveal opportunities for a more effective approach to allied space power.
