宇宙空間におけるコマンドウ攻撃、宇宙テロ等

インド陸軍のAnil Kumar Lalは、自著で宇宙の軍事化について言及しているが、同人はStar Warsを3段階に区分している。　

The Satellite Phase
The Destruction Phase
The Mopping Up Phase

この中で最終段階であるThe Mopping Up Phaseでは、"Employment of minor tactics, such a twin astronauts as a team with space scooters would have to be trained for commando type of raids on enemy satellites." として、宇宙空間における特殊部隊をも構想している。

また、宇宙テロの可能性も指摘されていた。

"Jamming the GPS is not the only form of space terrorism; there could be other similar space weapons. This concept is not new. The idea originated after the launch of Sputnik-1 in 1957. By the sixties various proposals to destroy orbiting satellites were put forward. However, the 1967 outer space treaty thwarted the ‘lethal’ use of space systems. Despite the treaty, several space powers continued developing anti-satellite weapons. These weapons, designed as jammers, could be placed on a satellite, which can then interfere with the operations of the enemy satellite. With technological advancement, ground based laser weapons capable of afflicting satellite operations are available. Given its accessibility, terrorists could use such weapons in the future."

"Soon after the Columbia mishap, there were reports that seven of the NASA computer servers were hacked. Since foolproof security of any computer system is a myth, the US has plenty to worry about."

"It is also feared that terrorists may adopt unconventional methods of attacks; futuristic scenarios involving terrorists traveling as a ‘space tourist’ and then unleashing an act of terror, is not
impossible."
