Purpose: Although the price reduction policy is established for military supplies, it is more focused on general military items. Therefore, it is hard to apply the current price reduction policy directly to the major weapon system. The purpose of this study is to develop an evaluation model which generates appropriate outputs for price reduction of military supplies. Methods: To improve the current policy, we first analyze the relevant policies of price reduction of similar organizations. We gather the opinions of related organization through survey including DAPA, Logistics Command, DTaQ and Defense industry companies. Then, we develop a price reduction model based on the analytic hierarchical process(AHP) method to find out important factors for price reduction. Results: The results of AHP analysis show that the important factors when applying price reduction of military supplies. From the analysis, the proposed method effectively generates the amounts of price reduction for the nonconformance items. Conclusion: The results of this research will be used as guidelines to improve military supplies policy of price reduction.

The purpose of this research was to introduce network analysis method for analyzing pesticide residues in incongruity commercial agricultural commodities. Based on the "results in pesticide residues on incongruity commercial agricultural commodities" on "Guidelines for food safety management 2017", we used centrality analysis for pesticide residues via degree, closeness and betweenness centrality measurement. In case of degree centrality result, chlorpyrifos and diazinon were the most highly "connected node" in pesticide network. For the closeness centrality result, the most pesticides showed the similar closeness trend except for 19 species of pesticides. Fludioxonil and chlorpyrifos are recognized as the "bridge" of pesticides network with their high betweenness centrality. The results of network analysis show the "relation" data, which could not represent through out the conventional statistical analysis, among the pesticide residues. We hope that the network analysis method will be appropriate and precise tool for analyzing pesticide residues via elaboration and optimization.

A body armor vest is a form of munition related directly to the safety and life of combatants. Therefore, it must meet the requirements for ballistic resistance. The ROK demands the performance of body armor vest meet the Level IIIA specified by the NIJ STD-0101.06 published by the US National Institute of Justice. This study performed acceptance tests on body armor vests. The factors for evaluating the ballistic resistance evaluated were not only whether it penetrates when shooting but also whether the BFS (Backface Signature) depth does not exceed 44 mm when it does not penetrate. The factors were assessed to determine if they were consistent or not. The BFS depth is affected by various test factors, such as the physical properties of the backing material and the changes in the amount of impact with the bullet velocity. In this study, an analysis of the bulletproof performance was performed by extracting the data with the same conditions using ANOVA to remove the influence of these external factors. The analysis revealed a correlation between the BFS depth, bullet velocity, vest conditions, and protection area. The mass production process was analyzed by estimating the Interval of BFS on each lot. Through this, a new methodology for ballistic resistance evaluation and paradigm for future quality assurance is suggested.

The purpose of this research was to analyze technological trends of 「Military Small Giant Venture Tech-Fi Net」 from Defense Technology Information Service via social network analysis. 「Military Small Giant Venture Tech-Fi Net」, which was constituted for their fine technology for application to the military field, registered 847 technologies of 388 companies. In this research, we analyzed 847 technologies for the relations between "Military System" and "Military Technology Category" via centrality measurement, one of the social network analysis methods. The results indicate that the major technologies of domestic military small giant venture companies were "Sensor" and "ICT" for "C4I System" and "Surveillance and Reconnaissance System" and "Platform/Structure" for "Land System", "Aeronautical System" and "Naval Sea System". In contrast, we recognized inadequate technologies, such as "Propellant" and "Material" for "Missile and Ammunition system" and "Sensor" and "ICT" for "Defense System", We hope that our results and method will be conducive to the technological development of Small Giant Venture companies.

The purpose of this research was to introduce a network analysis method for analyzing technology trends in the aerospace industry at the Farnborough International Airshow (FIA), one of the world's three major airshows. Civil and defense companies and government and military officials from 112 countries and 1,500 agencies convened at FIA 2018 to share and explore recent trends in the aerospace industry. We studied aerospace technologies from 45 countries, 1,108 exhibiters, and 223 technology categories via centrality analysis. The results from the network analysis showed that machining is the center of aerospace technology. However, there were quite different tendencies, depending on the region and country. The centers of aerospace technology are machining in Europe and the United Kingdom, aircraft components in Asia, and engine components/controls in the United States. In Korea, no one key technology was recognized, due to the country's small attendance. We hope this research will be conducive to aerospace technology-and-research planning, and that it will be an appropriate tool to help domestic manufacturers boost their exports.

The chassis of the Korean light tactical vehicle adopts a frame-on-body structure that uses lightweight design technology in terms of equipment operating characteristics. Military vehicles are operated in much harsher conditions compared to civilian vehicles, including mountainous terrain, especially steep slopes. Due to this characteristic, frame-welded cracks were found on some military vehicles. Therefore, in this paper, road damage analysis was conducted by identifying various roads including the military unit's road. The result confirmed that the operating environment of some military units' tactical road was much harsher than the endurance road test condition. A solution was derived through defect analysis, design review, and actual vehicle driving test. This study can be used as a reference by suggesting the development direction for the durability test of a new vehicle.

Purpose: Recently, many quality issues are aroused in military forces, such as failures in K-series weapons, combat boots defects and 40mm ammunition explosion accident. To address these problems, the one and only government defense quality assurance agency, DTaQ(Defense Agency for Technology & Quality) tried to improve many quality assurance procedures and introduced new systems such as MRA(Manufacturing Readiness Assessment), TRA(Technology Readiness Assessment), and etc. However, as the amount of war supplies increasing every year, the resource(budget and manpower) for quality assurance is limited. Therefore, DTaQ had difficulty to handle the issue efficiently and effectively, and we propose the method to address this problem. Methods: The most popular quality assurance technique is a sampling method, in this research, we first review the many sampling techniques and compare the strength and weakness of each method. After then, we selected the most appropriate sampling techniques and applied the procedures in combat force support material and ammunition areas. Results: We can reduce the number of samples dramatically, thus the required amount of labor time and money can be saved. Also, the new sampling technique enforces the supplier to produce the product which meets the target value(desirable value). Conclusion: We can reduce the number of samples dramatically, thus the required amount of labor time and money can be saved. Also, the new sampling technique enforces the supplier to produce the product which meets the target value(desirable value). Lastly, since the new sampling method requires many numerical calculations, we developed a simple android OS smart-phone application which can be used easily in field.
