A Damage Assessment Model for Surface Engagement for Missile and Gunfire.

Abstract

This thesis provides a model and computer program for rapid Damage Assessment. It may be used in any War Game between fleets of surface combatants. The effectiveness of conventional weapons in a naval environment depends upon the destructive power of the munitions, the rate of fire at which the munitions can be delivered on the target(s), the range to the target(s), and the reliability of the weapons systems in use.
