Analytical Methods for Studies and Experiments on "Transforming the Force"

Abstract

This documented briefing describes interim progress on a project concerned with "transforming U.S. forces" to reflect what is often called the revolution in military affairs. After background review describing a broad transformation strategy, we discuss and illustrate how analysis supported by models and simulations (including gaming) can supplement and guide empirical work such as joint experiments on new operational concepts.
