The logistics of ammunition stored in the underground ammunition warehouse has more difficulties than the logistics of ammunition stored on the ground due to the nature of the storage space. This study was conducted to solve the logistics of underground ammunition warehouse by improving these problems. And six items such as guard, safety, environment, supply system, equipment, facilities, and life management were selected for the improvement of logistics. And AHP was analyzed by Expert Choice program by conducting a survey to experts. As a result of the analysis, it was confirmed that the importance was high in the order of safety, guard, life management, equipment facilities, supply system, and environment. Based on the selected items and the results of the survey, a plan to build a network-based integrated platform that can improve logistics in an underground ammunition warehouse was presented. This study will be used as a basis for the establishment of an integrated platform when constructing an underground ammunition warehouse in the future. This study can be applied to storage facilities that store other materials in the military, and it is expected to be applied to large commercial storage facilities.

This study analyzed the reality and problems of the defense standard classification system. This paper proposes a plan to perform standard management tasks efficiently through case analysis of domestic and foreign standard classification systems. To continuously solve the problem of military product quality in defense technical data, it is necessary to promptly reflect the civilian's excellent technology and benchmark the civilian standard system to manage high-quality defense standards. First, to analyze the reality, the NATO classification system was analyzed through the private KS of domestic and ICS codes, the US defense standard system of overseas. In the case of the Korean military, the reality of the defense standard classification system was grasped through the National Defense Standards Comprehensive System operated by the Defense Acquisition Program Administration. The classification of the ministry of defense's weapon system and force support system is the most suitable classification system for the Korean military, which is classified into eight weapon systems and six force support standard systems for all steps. Specifically, it was classified into 12 major categories, 66 categories, and 352 sub-categories. In this study, the establishment of the defense standard management system can improve the classification system of new defense standards by reflecting the superior technology of the private sector.

Because required weapon systems in the planning stage exceed the extent of defense budget, we should consider the priorities of them in the programming and budget stage. The purpose of this paper is to find out the factors that affect the prioritization of required weapon systems limited by budget. For this purpose, we analyse statistically major 20 defense projects launched in 2014. We derived the reasons for prioritization through the pairwise comparisons and also extracted six representative factors through the Exploratory Factor Analysis(EFA). The KMO was 0.779 and the total variance explained was 79.59%, Cronbach's Alpha was above 0.7 which means EFA was appropriate to accept. The significance of this paper is that influencing factors on prioritization was derived by the comparisons using the present weapon systems and people in charge of defense acquisition. The factors can be utilized in AHP or Delphi to determine the priority and ultimately contribute to rational judgement for the military strategy objectives within the limited resources.

Korean military uses 'Tactical information communication network' to exchange information between units. In this study, we developed a media processing board for multi-party voice and video telephony based on open source software. On the other hand, in order to apply open source software for weapon systems and parts that are mounted on weapon systems, appropriate review is required according to the weapon system software development and management manual of the Defense Acquisition Program Administration (DAPA). In this study, the analysis of the requirement items was performed and the appropriate countermeasures were proposed for the open software applied to the media processing board with respect to 'the guidelines for the application of weapon systems to open source software', an appendix to the DAPA's manual.

In this paper, we propose the enhanced Assessment Model of the Embedded Software Process(MND-ESPAM) which is suitable for the development work of weapons in Korea. In 2008. We developed the MND-ESPAM which is the assessment criteria of software process, but this model is inefficient to apply to Korean military area. Therefore, we elicit and analyze the problems of MND-ESPAM through tow methods. One is to research on the actual condition of the domestic defense industry about software process management. And the other is to apply MND-ESPAM to the defense companies acquiring CMMI level. In order to overcome these problems elicited above, we provide solutions to make MND-ESPAM linked with Software Development Process Guide of Defense Acquisition Program Administration(DAPA) and to systematically strengthen testing activities and to reduce the number of process areas. The proposed model was proved by two objective methods such as checking the coverage with CMMI and whether it is satisfied or not by modified requirements ISO/IEC 14598-3. At last, experts in the field of software process confirmed the effect of MND-ESPAM through applying MND-ESPAM to the defense industry company.

In the early 2000s, the Korean government first attempted to acquire nuclear-powered submarines as strategic assets. Acquisition of nuclear-powered submarines must overcome the challenges of the initial costs and operating costs of trillions of US dollars per ship, must be agreed to by the international community (including neighboring countries) and in a national consensus, and must have an established technical infrastructure (including manpower). The US navy has been working with governments that want to acquire nuclear propulsion warships since the 1950s, and in 1982, they enacted an executive order called the United States Naval Nuclear Propulsion Program to consolidate efforts and prepare for the future, which sets out the organizational structure, authority, and responsibilities of US governmental management, and integrates national efforts. This paper is to gain valuable wisdom from the U.S. Naval Nuclear Propulsion Program by analyzing all of its histories and contributions, thereby providing valuable lessons for a future program in Korea. It might not be possible to follow the U.S.A. one-on-one because of the scale of national and military forces, but at least we can avoid time and effort spent on trial and error.

DMSMS (Diminishing Manufacturing Sources and Material Shortage) is increased by developing the scientific technique and downsizing the military part market. DMSMS affects the increase in total life cycle costs and serviceability. Therefore, advance control for parts is important to reduce the cost, and a database is needed to share information on the DMSMS. A task needs to be performed continuously by setting the major control item to management more efficiently. The purpose of this study was to deduce the major control item for the DMSMS management system. Thus, the pre-control item basis of the DAPA (Defense Acquisition Program Administration) Manual and the SD-22 Manual were first selected, and the results of the survey were analyzed by AHP (Analytic Hierarchy Process) method. Fifteen of the detailed items were stratified into three criteria (Impact, Probability, and cost of the DMSMS), and each weight for the items was calculated using a nine-point scale survey. The AHP survey was executed with 25 specialists in the DMSMS management field, and the score of consistency ratio over 0.1 was excluded. The model explained the results and suggested future directions for development.
