Analytic Methods for Tactical Air Warfare - 2006. Air Campaign and Mathematical Analysis

Abstract

The report describes analytical tasks performed for OSD/PA&E TACAIR during the period from June 2005 through July 2006. The report describes use of and extension to the stochastic Lanchester Air-to-Air Campaign model (SLAACM) probabilistic model of campaigns for air superiority between two opponents, described in previous reports. The current report describes the current model structure and battle management analysis features. In a separate section, the report discusses the mathematics of battle management and SLAACM integer programming capability. The report also contains mathematical analyses of strategies for defensive combat air patrol time phasing. The final section discusses proposed future model development.
