The 1958 US-UK Mutual Defense Agreement or UK-US Mutual Defence Agreement is a bilateral treaty between the United States and the United Kingdom on nuclear weapons cooperation. The treaty's full name is Agreement between the Government of the United States of America and the Government of the United Kingdom of Great Britain and Northern Ireland for Cooperation on the uses of Atomic Energy for Mutual Defense Purposes. It allows the United States and the UK to exchange nuclear materials technology and information. While the US has nuclear cooperation agreements with other countries including France and some NATO countries this agreement is by far the most comprehensive. Harold Macmillan called it "the Great Prize". The treaty was signed on 3 July 1958 after the Soviet Union shocked the American public with the Sputnik crisis on 4 October 1957 and the British hydrogen bomb programme successfully tested a hydrogen bomb in the Operation Grapple test on 8 November 1957. The Anglo-American Special Relationship proved mutually beneficial although it was never one of equals; the United States was far larger than Britain both militarily and economically. Britain soon became dependent on the United States for its nuclear weapons as it lacked the resources to produce a range of designs. The treaty allowed American nuclear weapons to be supplied to Britain through Project E for the use by the Royal Air Force and British Army of the Rhine. The treaty provided for the sale to the UK of one complete nuclear submarine propulsion plant plus ten years' supply of enriched uranium to fuel it. Other nuclear material was also acquired from the United States under the treaty. including 7.5 tonnes of highly enriched uranium although much of the highly enriched uranium was used as fuel for the growing fleet of UK nuclear submarines. The treaty paved the way for the Polaris Sales Agreement and the Royal Navy ultimately acquired entire weapons systems with the UK Polaris programme and Trident nuclear programme using American missiles with British nuclear warheads. The treaty has been amended and renewed nine times. The most recent renewal extended it to 31 December 2024. U.S. Department of Energy, National Nuclear Security Administration and U. K.

There are no distribution limitations on the outside of the disc or on any vugraphs contained therein. John Stuart Foster Jr. born September 18 1922 is an American physicist best known as the fourth director of Lawrence Livermore National Laboratory and as Director Defense Research and Engineering under four Secretaries of Defense and two Presidents. In 1952 Foster was recruited to Lawrence Livermore Laboratory by founder Edward Teller and became a division leader in experimental physics. He was promoted to associate director in 1958 and director of the Livermore Laboratory and associate director of the Lawrence Berkeley National Laboratory in 1961 in which positions he served until 1965. Foster was appointed director of defense research and engineering a position then considered the number-three job in the Department of Defense by Secretary of Defense Robert S. McNamara in October 1965. He continued in this position until June 1973 serving under Presidents Johnson and Nixon and under Secretaries of Defense McNamara Clifford Laird and Richardson. From 1973 Foster was vice president science and technology of TRW retiring in 1988. From 1973 until 1990 he was a member of the President's Foreign Intelligence Advisory Board. He was a long-serving member of the Defense Science Board of which he served as chairman from January 1990 to June 1993. Foster continues to advise and mentor scientists at Livermore into the 2020s. From an Arms Control Association article found online: The Department of Energy submitted a report to the Senate Armed Services Committee on May 20 2003 calling for the United States to shorten the time it would take to conduct a nuclear test to 18 months in order to provide a "reasonable level of flexibility" for the Bush administration. Congress requested the report in November 2002 instructing Secretary of Energy Spencer Abraham to draw up plans that would enable the department to test within six 12 18 or 24 months. Currently the United States can conduct a nuclear test within 24-36 months of a presidential directive to do so. Congress also asked Abraham to determine in consultation with the secretary of defense which readiness period would be optimal. The 18-month recommendation "reflects what is achievable and cost effective" according to the report which was prepared by the National Nuclear Security Administration NNSA a semiautonomous agency within the Energy Department. The report indicated that 18 months is the minimum amount of time needed to evaluate a problem identified in the U.S. nuclear stockpile propose a solution and "execute a test that would provide the information needed to certify the ‘fix.'" The recommendation is "consistent with realistic testing schedules" established during previous U.S. nuclear testing which ceased in 1992. By contrast shortening test readiness to six or 12 months would require a "substantial diversion of personnel and facilities at the laboratories" according to the report. That would "represent a major redirection of the stockpile stewardship program" which is intended to maintain the nuclear arsenal in the absence of testing. Adopting a testing posture of a year or less would be "most relevant.if the President might direct that testing resume for political reasons." The report also noted that the shorter readiness period would be considerably more expensive. The transition to shorten the current 24-36 month readiness posture expected to take three years is already underway. NNSA conducted an Enhanced Test Readiness Cost Study in July 2002 to determine the steps and funding required to shorten the readiness posture and the Nuclear Weapons Council a consultative group of officials from the Energy Department and the Pentagon approved the plan to transition to an 18-month readiness window in September 2002 according to the report. The Bush administration asked for funds to begin moving to a shorter test readiness posture in its fiscal year 2004 budget request.
