JCATS Verification and Validation Report

Abstract

This paper asserts that JCATS best represents combat in urban areas, and comes closest to meeting the MOUT capability requirements. However, before JCATS could be fully utilized for MOUT analysis purposes, both the model's urban combat representation and the relevant database needed to be subjected to appropriate verification and validation efforts. This paper documents the results of an effort to undertake the first of these requirements: V&V, the model's representation of combat in the urban environment.
