Abstract
Recognizing the tenuous position that the Republic of
Korea maintains with regard to communist North Korea, the
Korean Air Force, as a first line of defense, must maintain
the highest level of air combat readiness, the crux of which
is the combat effectiveness of its pilots. Through research
of past studies, the determinants of the combat effective
pilot, combat skills and psychological characteristics, were
identified and broken down into component factors, which
have positive effect on combat effectiveness and implications
for pilot selection, training, and assignment. NPS
Korean Air Force students were surveyed as to their perceptions
of these factors as they relate to combat effectiveness
and their own experience. This activity served as a
primitive model for possible expert systems determination of
improved objectives in support of Korean Air Force combat
effectiveness training.
