Report of the Defense Science Board Subgroup on EW Effectiveness Evaluation

Abstract

This report summarizes the activities of the Subgroup on EW Effectiveness Evaluation and includes my personal conclusions and recommendations. Two meetings were held, on Z9 October 1968 and 17 December 1968, to bring this subgroup up to date on current U.S. projects and capabilities in modeling, simulation and testing for EW (electronic warfare) effectiveness.Briefings by the Air Force and Navy included COMBAT COMPUTER,COMFY COAT, SNOWTIME/TOPRUNG, and PEGASUS. The Autonetics Model was covered in some detail. The subgroup believes that these briefings were complete enough to give it a reasonable understanding of the current activities to evaluate penetration effectiveness. An Executive Session was held on 19 February 1969. The major purposes of this session were fourfold: (1) to critique the present efforts in EW effectiveness evaluation, (Z) to assess whether the present database is adequate for this task, (3) to obtain a subgroup position on what overall capability is required and achievable, and (4) to recommend major areas where additional capabilities are required.
