"This Note presents an overview of fiber optics technology and potential military applications of that technology. It outlines the dramatic growth of fiber optics technology to the point where it has virtually replaced other means of long-distance telecommunications. It discusses advantages and disadvantages of fiber optics in general, and then considers them in the light of applications to military systems. The Note considers several categories of developmental and proposed military systems that use some facet of fiber optics technology; however, it makes no attempt to analyze these systems in terms of technical feasibility, cost, or military utility. An appendix contains technical information on the principles of fiber optic information transfer."--Rand abstract.
