Users' Guide for the Nuclear Fire Planning and Assessment Model II and Related Routines (NUFAM II Guide),

Abstract

This guide documents information pertaining to the application of the Nuclear Fire Planning and Assessment Model II (NUFAM II), as well as some of its external support routines. NUFAM II simulates two-sided tactical nuclear exchange by simulating fire planning, nuclear detonations, and damage assessments. These functions are performed based on the program logic, input data, and files provided by external support routines. At the conclusion of the simulation, the model provides information on numbers of nuclear warheads expended, personnel casualties, equipment damage, and other selected information. (Author)
