Episode Details

In this episode of The NIDS View, Jim and Curtis break down their favorite news articles shaping deterrence, national security, and defense innovation. From the troubling disappearance of U.S. research scientists to debates surrounding the Golden Dome missile defense system, the discussion connects current headlines to enduring questions of strategic stability and deterrence credibility.

The hosts also examine energy security and its implications for global risk—particularly in the context of the Strait of Hormuz, missile stockpile depletion, and growing concerns about military readiness. The episode concludes with a timely look at nuclear modernization, the possibility of renewed underground nuclear testing, and what today’s developments signal for deterrence in a rapidly changing technological and geopolitical environment.
