A Comparison of the All Mobile Tactical Air Force and the Logistics Composite Simulation Models
Abstract
LCOM with respect to the number of sorties generated and the number of maintenance manpower hours utilized during a 60-day scenario. A 2(n) factorial experimental design was used for the study with an n-value of three. Three variables, the number of LRUs available in the supply pool, the number of personnel available for maintenance tasks, and the quantity of AGE available on the base, were allowed to take on either a constrained or unconstrained value in the study. A distribution of the differences in each output variable between the two models was developed and a confidence interval of the distribution mean was calculated using a 95% confidence factor. Results showed that there was no statistical difference in the number of sorties generated and the manpower hours utilized between the two models. Recommendations were made to continue the comparisons by adding more variability into the database and enabling many of the model functions that were disabled for this study.
