Confidence-Based Performance Assessments for the BMDO Family of Systems

Abstract

How models will support the T&E of ballistic missile defense systems is currently a topic of much debate. The authors have developed a methodology to extend weapon system test results to the theater-level using Extended Air Defense Simulation (EADSlM). The primary Measure of Effectiveness (MOE) is protection effectiveness for the BMDO family of systems. EADSlM is run stochastically using offline a random draws from a database of accuracy timeline and reliability distribution to quantify confidence in a family of systems performance.
