CONCEPTS AND OBJECTIVES FOR A THREAT EVALUATION/ACTION SELECTION SIMULATION RESEARCH FACILITY

Abstract

The importance of timely Threat Evaluation and Action Selection (TEAS) in the post-1970 era is paramount in the face of: (1) advances in weapons technology leading to tremendous increases in lethality and speed of delivery, and (2) the probable and highly undesirable consequences of selecting a wrong action. Preliminary considerations are presented which should affect the design of a facility to be used for the simulation of a post-1970 TEAS activity. Emphasized are the environmental and conceptual requirements for research and experimentation in the concepts and techniques of post-1970 TEAS. (Author)
