Interdiction of a Capacitated Logistics Network

Abstract

In a tactical war environment, the commander of friendly forces faces a major problem in determining the most effective use of available aircraft sorties. Aircraft can be launched in different roles, such as air superiority, air interdiction, and close air support. The different roles compete for available aircraft resources so that complete satisfaction is rarely attained for each type role. The commander needs a method to determine potential results of sortie application in each of the air roles. The objective of the thesis is to provide a method for determining potential results in one of the air roles, air interdiction of a capacitated logistics network.
