A Computer Aided Exercise Facility for Tactical Air Command and Control Evaluation

Concepts and Design Overview

Monti D. Callero, Ralph E. Strauch, J. R. Lind

Published 1980

The evaluation of tactical air command and control systems and processes is a difficult and demanding task for which current tools are seriously flawed. This Note suggests a new tool for that purpose, a Computer Aided Exercise Facility combining characteristics of computer modeling and of existing military exercises in a way which allows the strengths of each to balance out the weaknesses of the other. The rationale for development of such a facility is discussed and a preliminary conceptual design proposed.
