  • The test and evaluation(T&E) of weapon systems is a significant activity in the decision-making process of defense acquisition program, providing the data of trade-off analysis, risk reduction and readiness to advance to next phase of development for the decision-maker. Currently, the modeling and simulation(M&S) is being a critical method in the test and evaluation of weapon systems. Therefore in this paper we review the current status of the test and evaluation for the defense acquisition program in Korea, and suggest an application of M&S in the T&E of weapon systems.

  • The Systems Interoperability Test and Evaluation System(SITES) is an T&E support tool for both information system and weapon system. The SITES was developed by reference to the Level of Information Systems Interoperability(LISI) in US. We use the tool via MND Broad convergence Network(BCN) in order to assess information system's interoperability. Nowadays, there are many ongoing researches on expanding assessment capability into weapon systems. As part of those research topics, this paper analyze the characteristics of tactical data-link messages which is the way to exchange the information among the weapon systems, and reflect that characteristics in interoperability level assessment.

  • The reliability test is a crucial step for ensuring robustness of high-cost and complex weapon systems. In this paper, we present a set of quantitative criteria to select critical parts or components in weapon systems for the reliability test, and implement a fuzzy inference system by applying developed criteria to fuzzy theory. We classify the selection criteria of critical parts or components into four fuzzy sets and membership functions. A fuzzy inference rule is proposed based on the AHP (Analytic Hierarchy Process) analysis technique so as to derive a convincing reliability test. The credibility of the fuzzy inference system is confirmed through a case study using actual equipment data exacted from an existent weapon system.

  • This study, the reliability of weapon systems acquisition and research and development in order to increase the effect of the modeling and simulation method has been studied using computational fluid dynamics. Weapon system acquisition, Test & Evaluation for use in the modeling and simulation can reduce the reliability of the time and cost savings and possible predictions and verification, and can provide useful data. However, the current weapon system acquisition and active use of modeling and simulation and verification do not even use the software are restricted. In this study, using computational fluid dynamics (CFD) modeling and simulation using the GAMBIT and FLUENT modeling and simulation was performed. The result is better than previous research results were confirmed in future weapon systems acquisition and research and development are expected to be actively used.

  • State-of-the-art design S/W and other 3D systems are used for design and development of weapon system. It is possible to detect problems of design through 3D or VR(Virtual Reality) in advance, and then reduce the development cost by finding solutions before prototype production. Therefore, we can increase efficiency for supportability of weapon system. In this study, we first propose a design verification procedure. Then we verify design of weapon system, underwater guided weapon, as a case study. Finally, we suggest alternatives for underwater guided weapon under development with DMS(Digital Maintenance System) and ICIDO from the point of view of ILS(Integrated Logistics Support). Developed S/W, DMS, draws maintenance procedures for components. Commercial S/W, ICIDO, verifies cable maintainability.

  • As operations that were only conducted in physical space in the past change to operations that include cyberspace, it is necessary to analyze how cyber attacks affect weapon systems using cyber systems. For this purpose, it would be meaningful to analyze a tool that analyzes the effects of physical weapon systems in connection with cyber. The ROK military has secured and is operating the US JMEM, which contains the results of analyzing the effects of physical weapon systems. JMEM is applied only to conventional weapon systems, so it is impossible to analyze the impact of cyber weapon systems. In this study, based on the previously conducted cyber attack damage assessment framework, a framework for analyzing the impact of cyber attacks on physical missions was presented. To this end, based on the MOE and MOP of physical warfare, a cyber index for the analysis of cyber weapon system effectiveness was calculated. In addition, in conjunction with JMEM, which is used as a weapon system effect manual in physical operations, a framework was designed and tested to determine the mission impact by comparing and analyzing the results of the battle in cyberspace with the effects of physical operations. In order to prove the proposed framework, we analyzed and designed operational scenarios through domestic and foreign military manuals and previous studies, defined assets, and conducted experiments. As a result of the experiment, the larger the decrease in the cyber mission effect value, the greater the effect on physical operations. It can be used to predict the impact of physical operations caused by cyber attacks in various operations, and it will help the battlefield commander to make quick decisions.

  • Recently, the use of domestic products securing domestic technology is encouraged, because of export restrictions of the countries or DMSMS(diminishing manufacturing sources and shortages). Domestic weapon systems are actively focused on the parts localization process of R&D projects based on Systems Engineering. However, it is the only way to do technical review for Systems Engineering process up to now. There is a case of application in Localization with Systems Engineering process, but the SE activity is not enough. This study is how to apply Systems Engineering process to Localization effectively based on real cases.

  • The purpose of this study is concerned with the development of production for heavy industrial and militaries weapon systems in the field of industries and militaries in Korea. In managing the discontinuance and obsolescence of components and systems. Particularly, defense heavy industries are supporting the designs and production of heavy and weapon systems. Therefore, it is more realistic to manage the discontinues of components and systems, but Heavy and Militaries supports the maintenance of the weapon systems from the maintenance and repairs stage, Discontinued management are imperturbable reality and are moving to be reactive. In order to maintain and operate expensive heavy and weapon systems, it is necessary to manage the Total Life Cycle supportability of the components and systems. Proactive management should be preceded by active management rather than reactive management. In addition, the Information Systems will make you suitable management systems.

  • The system engineering should be actively applied to successfully develop a complex and advanced weapon system, because the system engineering uses a multidisciplinary approach. Therefore, this study proposed a system engineering process for a successful weapon system development. According to the national standard policy, an IPT aspect system engineering standard must adapt the ISO/IEC/IEEE 15288. It also asks for tailoring with considering the IPT characteristics as a weapon system acquisition institution. The IPT aspect system engineering process to acquire a weapon system can be expressed with 3 process groups (Agreement, Technical Management, Technical) and 20 processes. There was a need for an institutional framework to hire retired experts from related organizations as consultants to apply the low-cost and high efficiency system engineering in the weapon system acquisition field.
