Airbase Structural Facility Postattack Recovery - FOAL EAGLE demonstration

Abstract

The RACS Facility Recovery Demonstration, accomplished during the airbase ground defense exercise FOAL EAGLE at Osan AB, Republic of Korea from 2- 6 November 1991, included both damage assessment and expedient repair systems. The postattack damage assessment (POST-DAM) system has three major subsystems; (1) An expert system, installed on a field portable laptop or hand-held computer, which sends previously stored expedient repair strategies to the, BCE Damage Control Center (DCC) when fed damage information at the damage scene; (2) A resource database manager, installed on a host microcomputer in the DCC, which receives expedient repair strategies from the expert system, then compares repair resources required versus those available, to determine whether a repair is possible; and (3) A project scheduler, also installed on the host computer, which schedules possible repairs when approved by the Survival/Recovery Center (SRC) commander. Four airbase structural facility expedient repair systems were demonstrated.
