Evaluating battle damage after conducting an attack on selected targets during warfare is essential. However, regarding the assessment of battle damage caused by cyber-attacks, some methods available under limited circumstances have been suggested so far. Accordingly, this paper suggests a militarily applicable, comprehensive, and specific method of battle damage assessment from battle damage assessment methods in combat assessment theories from the understanding of cyberspace. By using cyberspace components, this paper classifies cyber targets, suggests the assessment methods of data damage, social cognitive damage, derived damage, and the existing battle damage assessment methods such as physical damage, functional damage, and target systems, and provides an example to demonstrate that this method is applicable to the actual past cyberattack cases.

For the purpose of facing battle damage that a fighter is subject to in combat, following recovery procedures such as damage assessment, repair design and structural integrity evaluation are investigated. A sample study is presented on the battle damage of F-15 ECS bay, which is comprised of damage assessment and repair design based on ABDR(Aircraft Battle Damage Repair) skills and work procedure complying with AFTO(Air Force Technical Order) forms. Further, the flight safety of repaired structure is validated and the time the permanent repair should be done is estimated through the evaluation of structural integrity such as the calculation of static strength and fatigue life.

This paper proposes a framework for the battle damage assessment (BDA) of electronic warfare linked to cyber warfare. Thanks to the rapid development of information and communication technology, the importance of cyber warfare and electronic warfare in cyberspace is increasing. Therefore, the BDA for cyber warfare and its associated electronic warfare in cyberspace is an important factor that affects the success or failure of military operations. In this paper, we propose a method to calculate measure of performance and measure of effectiveness by classifying the electronic warfare system into large / medium / small classes according to the type of electronic warfare. By setting up a hypothetical scenario, we show the effectiveness of the proposed framework.

Wargame is a simulated military operation with certain rules, specifications, and procedures, in which soldiers can virtually and indirectly experience the war. The ROK Navy operates the Cheonghae model, a training wargame model for helping commanders and staff master the procedures for conducting the war. It is important for commanders, staff and analysts to know whether a warship can perform its missions and how long it can last during a war. In existing model, the Cheonghae, the probability of kill of a warship is calculated simply considering the number of tonnage without any stochastic elements, and the warship's mission availability is also determined based on predetermined values. With this model, it is difficult to get a value of the probability of kill that makes sense. In this dissertation, the author has developed a probabilistic model in which the warship vulnerability data of ROK-JMEM can be used. A conceptual model and methodology that can evaluate the mission performance of personnel, equipment, and supplies has been proposed. This can be expanded to a comprehensive assessment of wartime warship loss rates by integrating damage rates for personnel, equipment, and supplies in wartime.

Accurately predicting wartime resources requirements and preparing war supplies in peacetime is an important task that can determine the outcome of the war by guaranteeing the duration of the operation. The wartime warship damage rate is a measure of estimating the battle damage of our warships in the process of performing battles to achieve the war goal. In the previously studied wartime warship damage rate estimation method, when damage occurs, long-term repair is required due to the complexity and specificity of the ship structure. Only the case of a complete defeat at the level of sinking was defined as a damage, and even if it was impossible to perform a maritime operation mission, it was not estimated as a damage if the level of sinking was not reached. Therefore, in order to improve the reliability of the wartime warship damage rate, the equipment damage assessment level can be estimated based on the warhead weight of the threat weapon system, the vulnerability rate of the warship's equipment, and the warship's hull. In the future, it is expected that the estimation methodology proposed in this study will be used as a simulation logic when developing a model for analyzing the wartime resources requirements for the warship's equipment and hull.

In recent years, the cyber attack has become a universal phenomenon, and the attacks in cyberspace are regarded as a kind of war, cyber-warfare. However, cyber-warfare is difficult to identify the damage caused by the attack. In order to effectively evaluate the damage to the attack that may occur in the cyber-warfare, this paper describes the damage evaluation simulation of the cyber-warfare based on DEVSim++, which can calculate the damage to the cyber attack using the MOCE (Measure of Cyber Effectiveness). Also, in order to help the commander in the cyber Command&Control phase, the number of victims by attack classification is expressed in the form of Venn diagram.

We have developed a weapon effectiveness evaluation model for top-attack smart munitions(WEEM/TASM), which is a many on many Monte Carlo Model evaluating the effectiveness of top-attack smart munitions against armoured ground vehicles. In this model the battle is reduced to a one-sided battle situation in that the target vehicles are regarded as being stationary and passive. It can simulate the whole attack process of smart munitions from firing artillery dispenser to sensing and hitting processes after dispense. It can also calculate the probability of kill of each target and the numbers of rounds required to fulfill the degree of damage in statistical manners. In this paper, we describe the basis for our design concepts reflected in the model to simulate the weapon effectiveness of top-attack smart munitions and provide simulation results for an example case.

Cyber Mission Impact Assessment is one of the essential tasks which many militaries and industrial major companies should perform to effectively achieve their mission. The unexpected damage to an organization's assets results in damage to the whole system's performance of the organizations. In order to minimize the damage, it is necessary to quantify the available capacity of the mission, which can be achieved only with the remaining assets, and to immediately prepare a new second best plan in a moment. We therefore need to estimate the exact cyber attack's impact to the mission when the unwanted damage occurs by modeling the relationship between the assets and the missions. In this paper, we propose a new model which deals with the dependencies between assets and missions for obtaining the exact impact of a cyber attack. The proposed model distinguishes task management from asset management for an efficient process, and it is implemented to be optimized using a vectorized operation for parallel processing and using a buffer to reduce the computation time.

In this paper, we propose a new close combat expert system to overcome the difference of combat damage assessments between combat units belong to their own model in Combined Arms Integrated Interoperability System(CAIIS) which will be deployed in the early future. When it happens to engage in a battle among combat units belong to their own model in CAIIS, the result of damage assessment is different severely. This is related to CAIIS's confidence and need to be overcome. We propose the expert system for close combat damage assessment with a decision tree. Simulation results show that the proposed expert system is valid well. Because the proposed expert system is made not as an independent system but as an inner module type of CAIIS, CAIIS will be simpler system than we expect. And we will hope to reduce the cost of CAIIS.

정보통신 기술의 발전으로 개인뿐만 아니라 경제, 행정, 국방 등 사회 전반에서 사이버 공간의 중요성이 대두되고 있다. 특히 국방부에서는 사이버 관련 공격들에 관한 피해를 평가하는 연구가 활발히 진행되고 있다. 본 논문에서는 사이버 전투 피해평가 프레임워크를 제안한다. 사이버 전투 피해평가 프레임워크는 아군이 사이버 공격에 의해 피해를 입은 뒤 지휘 통제실에게 아군의 피해를 알리고 장비의 손상도는 얼마인지 작전에 이상을 미치는 영향은 얼마인지 계산하여 제공한다. 본 프레임워크를 사용하면 현 상황을 아군의 사령부가 파악할 수 있게 되어 지휘 결심을 하는데 도움을 주어서 작전을 성공 시킬 수 있게 도와준다.
