Abstract:

The major attrition processes direct-fire, artillery, on-station helicopter, system-on-system acquisition in the Eagle combat model had never had an independent verification and validation VV of the relevant code. Using Army Pam 5-11 accepted VV methods, Eagle code was verified and validated to the Vector-In-Commander VIC model. All these functional areas were verified. Some problems were found, but corrected. With the code changes made and exceptions noted in the body of this report, Eagles code does function as intended. System-on-system acquisition direct-fire, and on-station helicopter attrition validate to the most up-to-date VIC versions 5 and 6. Eagles artillery attrition validates to VIC version 3.0. It needs to be updated to the latest Artillery School and AMSAA approved artillery algorithms.
