Presidential Directive/NSC-59: Targeting and Capabilities Gap (July 1980)

This is a continuation of the review of President Carter's Presidential Directive/NSC-59, specifically addressing the section on targeting for both the SIOP's pre-planned targets and the option to create flexible plans quickly in response to an unforeseen scenario that the SIOP could not adequately address. This includes an evaluation of the U.S.'s capability to implement the directive.
