C3 Modified TACWAR Model

Abstract

The TACWAR theater-level combat simulation model has been modified to include command, control, and communications degradation (C3/D). Specific areas where C3/D has been incorporated include combat division assets, corps-sector assets, and theater (COMMZ) assets. The results of C3/D impact division combat effectiveness, nuclear and chemical authorization and release processing delays, target acquisition delays, and nuclear and chemical delivery system and warhead inventory effectiveness. The C3/D modified TACWAR model has been run using an unclassified 'benchmark' data base. Communications degradation and message processing delay data are provided by the TACNET theater-level C3 model. Parametric studies reveal the effect of C3/D on the results of theater-level engagements.
