A Statistical Analysis Plan to Support the Joint Forward Area Air Defense Test.

Abstract

The purpose of this paper is to provide an investigative methodology and useful statistical analysis plan to support the Test Program Definition (TPD) recently developed by the Joint Forward Area Air Defense (JFAAD) Test Force. The two primary test Force objectives are to improve forward area air defense performance, reduce friendly air casualties due to ground-based air defense and also to identify joint tactical, doctrinal, and procedural changes which assist in attaining these objectives. These objectives necessitate an in-depth examination of three major issues: (1) To what degree do the collective means of aircraft identification influence the effectiveness of the forward area air defense systems? (2) To what degree do projected C3I capabilities support JFAAD elements? (3) How does airspace management and control affect the mission accomplishment of FAAD systems and friendly aircraft?
