Eroding controls in the former Soviet Union. Insecure and oversized nuclear weapons and materials stockpiles in the former Soviet Union, with little transparency in their management, coupled with an oversized and underfunded nuclear complex, pose severe threats to U.S. and international security. The possibility that the essential ingredients of nuclear weapons could fall into the hands of terrorists and proliferating states is all too real, and immediate actions are needed to reduce this threat to the security of America and the world.. . . ...

The 1985 tragedy of Air India Flight 182, which exploded off Ireland en route from Montreal to London, stimulated an intensified effort to thwart terrorists. The International Security and Development Act of 1985 provided for air marshals and expanded FAA s R D for airport security. Thermal neutron analysis (TNA) and a number of sniffer technologies for trace explosives detection, which had been developed under FAA sponsorship, were accelerated toward commercial production. 

Fuel cells are being developed and demonstrated in many applications that may have relevance to international security. This includes clean transportation, clean power generation, distributed power generation, and military applications. Fuel cells are versatile, efficient, clean, and modular. They are close to commercialization and there are some niche markets which could enable early penetration. There are a few technical challenges, such as high cost, low durability, and nonexistence of hydrogen infrastructure, but there are no show-stoppers. ...
