reportActive / Technical Report | Accession Number: ADA258388 | Open PDF

Abstract:

A probabilistic assessment of single-ship air-defence effectiveness against an attack by a stream or wave of anti-ship capable missiles ASCMs has been conducted for ships fitted with a mix of either hard kill or hard killsoft kill weapons systems. Results are expressed in terms of the probability of a ship defeating all threats, or the expected number of hits achieved by the ASCMs.
