Damage Probability Computer for Point Targets with P and Q Vulnerability Numbers

Abstract

The Damage Probability Computer for Point Targets with P and Q Vulnerability Numbers-first issued in February 1974 and modified in February 1977-is designed to aid military analysts and planners in making quick estimates of the expected outcomes of attacks against overpressure-sensitive targets (PVNs) and dynamic pressure-sensitive targets (QVNs). It was prepared under the Project RAND task entitled "Future Strategic Aerospace Force Requirements."
