Modern war games can be divided up into three groups; computer
games, computer assisted games, and manual war games. These games
can be used in any one of three ways: for enjoyment, as an analytic
tool , or as an aid to training
.
This paper develops a manual war game that can be used as a training
aid in an ASW helicopter squadron. ASW Simulation is designed to
aid the novice pilot in learning the basic concepts of helicopter ASW by
simulating some of the problems that may be encountered by a flight of
three helicopters in a combined ASW exercise.
