A Computer Model to Aid the Planning of Runway Attacks.

Abstract

A computer program to aid the planning of runway attacks is developed. Conventional, individually targeted weapons are used against non-reinforced concrete runways. The program has two main sections. The first section evaluates any attack strategy, based on independent cuts along the runway, with each cut specified in terms of number of aim points, number of weapons per aim point, and aim point locations. The second section searches for the 'best' strategy which uses the least number of weapons to achieve an overall probability of runway closure equal to or greater than a user specified level.
