Abstract

This study aims to develop a simulator for modeling engagements between fighters and missiles in Beyond Visual Range (BVR) air combat scenarios using DEVS (Discrete Event System specification) formalism. The simulator is modeled to implement sustained formation strategies in 1-versus-many situations, and we applied the model to real scenario two case studies. The two case studies assume a virtual missile neutralization equipment. The first case study analyzes the effectiveness of the missile neutralization equipment based on formations. The second case study analyzes the effectiveness of the missile neutralization equipment in relation to the evasion maneuvering tactic of the formation leader fighter. Through these studies, it is demonstrated that the model can realistically simulate scenarios and be beneficial the development of evasion strategies and tactics.

본 연구는 DEVS(Discrete Event System Specification) 형식론을 사용하여 BVR(Beyond Visual Range) 공중전 시나리오에서 항공기와 미사일 간의 교전을 모델링하는 시뮬레이터를 개발하는 것을 목표로 한다. 본 연구에서 제안하는 시뮬레이터는 1대 다 상황에서 지속적인 편대 전략을 구현할 수 있도록 모델링되었으며, 개발한 모델을 실제 시나리오 사례 연구 두 건에 적용하였다. 두 건의 사례 연구는 가상의 미사일 불능화 장비를 가정한다. 첫 번째 사례 연구는 편대 대형에 따라 미사일 불능화 장비의 효과도를 분석한다. 두 번째 사례 연구는 편대장기의 회피 기동 전략에 대한 미사일 불능화 장비의 효과도를 분석한다. 이를 통해, 제안하는 모델이 현실적인 상황을 재현하고 회피전략 및 전술 개발 수립에 도움이 될 수 있음을 보인다.
