The U.S. military, meanwhile, was conducting secret experiments with ground-based lasers, and the Joint Chiefs of Staff insisted that this program be exempt from any ban on development and testing. So in August 1971 the U.S. negotiating team proposed a ban on developing and testing "systems based on other physical principles." The only exception was for fixed, land-based systems...
