Abstract:

Modern warfare uses information gathering resources sensors and C4ISR capabilities to detect, acquire, and identify targets for attack shooters. This report provides analytical state-space models that include the capabilities of the above functional elements in order to guide their appropriate balance this includes attention to the effect of realistic errors, e.g., of target classification and battle damage assessment BDA. Also, an analytic stochastic model that illustrates multiple attractorsteady states is presented.
