Argument and Framework Analysis

ARGUMENT AND FRAMEWORK ANALYSIS Student Name Course Code: Course Name Submission Date Alex J. Benson: Hypersonic changes: Reassessing the nuclear triad in a new arms race Strengths: Benson's proposed work is well-placed to resolve an immediate problem in existing research that mirrors a critical gap – a limited understanding of the U.S. nuclear triad modernization and the upsurge of hypersonic missiles. Well-established objectives for the proposed work can enable a focused inquiry tailored to unravel avenues to boost homeland security.

For instance, the researcher does not discuss counterpoints and alternative approaches that could make for a more profound and balanced debate. The researcher oversimplifies the relationship between hypersonic missile development and the capability to thwart homeland security threats. In additi...
