Corps Helicopter Attack Planning System (CHAPS): Training Course/Curriculum Outline

Abstract

This document was developed as a training/curriculum outline manual for the US Army's CORPS Helicopter Attack Planning System (CHAPS). There are five manuals for CHAPS. CHAPS was developed by Systems Control Technology, Inc, Palo Alto, CA for the Joint Tactical Fusion Program Management Office (JTFPMO). CHAPS is a derivative of USAFE's Force Level Automated Planing System (FLAPS) and was extensively modified to incorporate US Army attack helicopters. The CHAPS program consists of two major stand-alone software programs: the SUPR program which defines a 3-D real-world statespace area where the helicopters would operate; and CHAPS which provides survivability estimates for attacking helicopters given a specific battlefield scenario and real-world threat. This manual compliments the CHAPS Student Training Course Guide and Positional Handbook that are used with the JTFPMO's Portable Analyst Workstation (PAWS) and is intended to help the instructor/students to plan a CHAPS training course and to make arrangements to properly conduct a training class. Individual to be trained should be helicopter mission planners or those individuals interested in helicopter automated mission planning.
