AN ECONOMETRIC TARGET SELECTION MODEL

Abstract

The paper outlines a procedure to assist those who address the problems of target selection in any type of conflict and to help the target analyst and operations planner choose more nearly optimal target complexes. This procedure employs the basic econometric technique of input/output analysis, but extends traditional input/output into a unique format which permits target selection to be made in a dynamic and cogent analytical environment. The model is not intended to replace any of the current objective techniques of target analysis, but this approach will provide a display or focus which should make related studies more valuable.
