An Evaluation of the Capability of the Logistics Composite Model to Project the Monthly Aircraft Sortie Effectiveness of an F-15 Wing.

Abstract

There has been considerable research on computerized generation of alternative flying and maintenance schedules in an effort to improve utilization of Air Force resources. However, no technique exists to evaluate the potential sortie effectiveness of alternative schedules. The Logistics Composite Model (LCOM) appeared to have the potential to perform the evaluation through simulation. The authors investigated LCOMs capability to accurately predict the sortie effectiveness of F-15 monthly flying schedules by simulating six actual F-15 monthly flying and maintenance schedules. Analysis of the results indicated that LCOM could not effectively evaluate alternative F-15 monthly flying schedules. (Author)
