Modeling and Analysis of Tactical Installation Protection Missions
Abstract
Security of U.S. military installations is of high interest and operational importance to the U.S. military and allied forces. The Situational Awareness for Surveillance and Interdiction Operations (SASIO) model was developed to simulate the operational tasking of a single Unmanned Aerial Vehicle (UAV) and a ground-based interceptor used for searching, identifying, and intercepting potential hostile targets prior to reaching a military base. This research explores insights for the tactical employment of a UAV and an in- terceptor to combat potential hostile actions against a predefined area of interest. The design and analysis of experiments are used to create surrogate models that quantify the success rates of interception based on the both employment strategies for the UAV and ground-based interceptor and also characteristics of the mission. The results provide guidance for tactical employment of Blue Force assets, as well as provide al- ternative means to influence Red force behavior in a beneficial manner.
