Corps Helicopter Attack Planning System (CHAPS). Student's Training Course Guide

Abstract

This document was developed as a hands-on student training manual for the US Army's CORPS Helicopter Attack Planning System (CHAPS). There are five manuals for 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 Planning 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 Instructor/Lesson Guide and Positional Handbook by describing CHAPS' basic operating commands that are used with the JTFPMO's Portable Analyst Workstation (PAWS), presenting actual color screen output displays, and providing examples of CHAPS output messages. This document provides an excellent pictorial of CHAPS' output capabilities.
