Air Combat Model Engagement and Attrition Processes High Level Design.

Abstract

The purpose of this high-level design document is to act as a basis of discussion between model designers, model users, and the sponsors. The purpose of the model design is to allow applications to many implementations, especially as part of an overall hierarchy of models. The purpose of the types of models in which this design is implemented, such as the theater-level combat or nonlinear combat model (TLC/NLC) or possibly the RAND Strategy Assessment System (RSAS), is to support policy-level analysis of air combat issues primarily at RAND, but possibly at other institutions as well. The objectives of this document are to describe the high-level design of an air combat engagement and attrition model, present the design to potential RAND study sponsors to ensure that the key factors of air combat are addressed, and to publish this updated version as a point of reference during model implementation and evaluation.
