As NCW has appeared, the importance of interoperability in modern warfare has been also increased. Korean Defense has constructed and used the Systems Interoperability Test & Evaluation System based on LISI, in order to increase interoperability between Defense Information Systems. However, its evaluating targets are limited to only the information systems, so that it is difficult to apply it to weapon systems. This paper proposes an integrated interoperability assessment framework for korean embedded software of weapon systems based on reviewing the limitations of SITES and the other interoperability assessment models.

무기체계의 성능을 뜻하는 작전운용성능(Required Operational Capability)은 신규 무기체계의 소요 결정 시 함께 결정되며, 무기체계의 획득부터 전술적인 운용에 이르기까지 결정적인 영향을 미치기 때문에 이를 정의하는 것은 매우 중요한 일이다. 본 연구에서는 새롭게 개발되는 무기체계인 관측포탄의 ROC를 검증하기 위한 시뮬레이션 기반의 방법론을 제안한다. 이를 위해, ROC를 구성하는 무기체계의 주요 성능과 무기체계의 성능에 영향을 미치는 외부환경요인을 입력값으로 하고, 작전운용효과를 결과값으로 출력하는 이산사건 시뮬레이션 모델을 제안한다. 시뮬레이션 모델을 구현하는데 필요한 모의논리를 설명하고 민감도 분석 등 다양한 시뮬레이션 결과를 활용하여 ROC를 검증할 수 있는 방법에 대해 설명한다. 본 연구는 관측포탄과 같이 유사무기체계가 없고 군의 분석모델을 직접적으로 활용하기 어려운 무기체계의 ROC를 분석하고 작전효과를 예측할 수 있는 방법론으로 활용이 가능할 것이다.

RAM(Reliability, Availability, Maintainability) characteristics of weapon system is a part of Required Operational Capability, must be reasonable and achievable. In this study, we studied the criteria, important factors to establish RAM requirement and reviewed the current process. Then we propose the new process and method to establish the reasonable and achievable RAM requirement by BCS(Baseline Comparison System) model.

Today, most weapon systems operate as component systems of SoS(System of Systems) and they produce synergy effects in the battle field by interoperating. In addition, the acquisition issues on weapon systems have expanded into SoS context including sustainment analysis. Availability is the sustainment KPP(Key Performance Parameter) of weapon systems. In this paper, a simulation model is proposed to analyze the availability of SoS. The simulation model consists of 5 modules: Mission and Task, System, System RBD, Maintenance system and a simulation engine. Then it was implemented and applied to a SoS. As a result of the application, the simulation model could be applied for analyzing the availability of the SoS and provided information about critical tasks and risky component systems to complete the given mission of the SoS.

When a weapon system is developed, climate elements such as temperature, rainfall, and so on have an effect on development costs and a developing period. Therefore, effects of environment and climate must be examined throughly before the design of weapon systems and be applied to their developments. And so, operational and storage requirements for weapon systems are determined and are applied to related tests through analyzing not only environmental factors such as vibration, shock, and so on, but also climate factors. In this paper, the distribution and the frequency of occurrence of rainfall were analyzed and were suggested as a good guide to determine standards of tests for weapon systems when it's raining.

In this paper, we suggest a localization method of factors affecting the accuracy of Air-to-Ground weapon delivery. The proposed method, called FBEL(Factor-Based Error Localization), is based on the fault localization technique widely utilized in the realm of software engineering field. FBEL localizes the major factors affecting the performance of weapon delivery. To analyze the effectiveness and the applicability of FBEL, we applied FBEL to real firing data and got the major factors caused the errors. We expect that the method could contribute to improve the quality of weapon delivery system. We also expect that it may aid improvement of pilot capability greatly, if it is applied to pilot firing training.

One of the pending issues of the Ministry of Defense is the efficient management of space parts for the weapon systems. It has been known that more than 000 million dollars are needed for spare parts for the weapon systems annually. Though the problem demands a serious consideration, there has not been any systematic study on the problem as far as the author knows. One way to approach the problem is through an investigation of the system reliability under constraints. A measure of how well a system performs or meets its design objectives is provided by the concept of system reliability. If successful operation is desired for a specified period of time, reliability is defined as the probability that the system will perform satisfactorily for the required time period. This interpretation of reliability is normally applied to devices which are subject to random failures such as electrical or mechanical systems. It has been found necessary to express system reliability in terms of the reliability of the components or subsystems which comprise the system. The major subsystems of an aircraft, for example, include the electronics, powerplant, airframe and armament subsystems. Therefore, the optimal spare part kit can be found by maximizing the system reliability subject to cost or other constraints.

Interoperability is the key issue in NCW. However, old-fashioned weapon systems have low level interoperability. The representative example is BTCS. Therefore, we apply KVMF R1 to BTCS in order to improve interoperability and testify the effectiveness of how to apply without any changes in existing software. In this paper, we have proposed a message and software architecture design method for applying KVMF to developed weapon system. Finally, it is confirmed that the proposed method is superior to apply KVMF to existing weapon system in a point of verifying how to highly efficiently apply KVMF on existing weapon system.

In government procurement programs, cost estimation and analysis support funding decisions and are the basis for other major decisions, too. Such estimating and analyzing the cost of the weapon systems are crucial in execution of the defense budget. However, existing cost estimations and analyses have focused on domestic R&D projects, thus those are not valid in application to foreign weapon acquisitions. This study aims at foreign weapon systems that are acquired from Direct Commercial Sales. Because the data for price estimation of a foreign weapon is usually not available, we suggest a price estimation model based on performance factors of the weapon. In this study, the proper price of the weapon system is estimated using the parametric cost estimating model. Using the data of helicopter-launched anti-tank guided missiles worldwide, we analyze the effect of each performance factor on the weapon system price by regression analysis, and use step-wise and ridge regression analysis to remove multi-collinearity. This study hopefully contributes to more reasonable decision making on proper price of weapons.

The improvement of the reliability of weapon systems and the reduction of the total life-cycle cost based on the improving of the DT&E system for Company Organized weapon systems research and development are urgently required. The major advanced countries operate test and evaluation centers for military (U.S.), manage a large scale organization of IPT personnel (England) or conduct management of DT&E through a third party organization (France). Based on a survey of experts, an improvement of the DT&E policy in terms of reliability and objectiveness is needed, and management through a third party national defense agency and civilian agency such as the Surion development case is required. In addition, although it appears that efficiency improves when management of DT&E is performed by national defence agencies rather than civilian agencies, it is necessary to proceed by selecting a civilian agency based on competition in the case that it is difficult to select a national defence agency.
