While China's military rise is an issue of growing importance to regional security, it is worthwhile to note that it is not China's military modernization per se, but its capacity to project and sustain power along and beyond its borders--in particular, the possibility to resolve forcefully its outstanding maritime disputes and various contingencies. This essay argues that China's "anti-access capability"--a U.S.-coined term originally developed for a Taiwan contingency--is equally applicable to other major regional cases such as the Spratly disputes and a North Korean contingency. Furthermore, notwithstanding China's continuos efforts to develop and deploy various types and classes of weapons/platforms, it is the Russian systems and technologies that are most capable and thus likely assigned to the highest mission-critical areas. In assessing China's current and likely future military capability as well as their implications for the region, it is necessary to take note of the following: • There exists asymmetry of military capability between China and its weaker neighbors. While the PLAN is weak in several important aspects, for instance, many of its neighbors' navies are weaker still. • Some have argued that China's foreign policy behavior apparently became more "assertive" in 2009-2013, but it is wiser to keep in mind that China has almost always been assertive and aggressive when it comes to what China defines as "sovereignty and territorial issues" as well as its newest "core interests." • On the South China Sea disputes it is the function of U.S. presence in the theater--in the form of overseas bases and the freedom of navigation--and the PLA's own limitations to project and sustain power for an extended period of time that have largely prevented armed. • While Taiwan remains the idee fixe of China's diplomacy and military, it is and will be a tough nut to crack. China's recent creeping attempts for economic integration with Taiwan should be seen in this context. • China and Japan, the two regional heavyweights and traditional rivals, will likely have a bilateral relationship that is replete with difficulties and tension. China's unilateral announcement of its ADIZ in November 2013 as well as the occasional yet persistent disputes with Japan over the Senkaku/Diaoyudao/Diaoyutai islands are only the latest manifestation of this deeper and difficult relationship. • For Korean security it is imperative to take into account the geostrategic and historical factors. On top of the existing military threats from North Korea, the ROK should be able to employ a) hedging strategy, b) "limited defense sufficiency" strategy, and c) rock-solid relations with the United States.

소프트웨어 연동통제문서는 시스템을 구성하는 구성품 간 연동을 위해 프로토콜 및 데이터 등을 기술하는 문서를 의미한다. 무기체계 개발 특성상 소프트웨어 연동통제문서 검증을 위해서는 각 구성품 개발자들이 특정 장소에 모여서 통합시험을 진행하게 되는데, 이때 소프트웨어 개발자들의 단순한 실수로 인하여 통합시험이 지연되는 경우가 종종 발생하게 된다. 이러한 상황이 발생하는 가장 큰 이유는 소프트웨어 개발자들이 연구실 환경에서는 시스템 환경을 구성하기 어려운 문제로 인해 충분한 검증을 수행하지 못한 경우와 통합시험 간 발생한 오류에 대해서 즉각적으로 원인을 발견하지 못한 경우 때문이다. 따라서 본 논문에서는 무기체계 개발 단계의 제작 및 구현단계부터 시스템 통합시험 단계 사이에 많은 시간이 소요되는 소프트웨어 연동통제문서 검증을 효과적으로 수행하기 위한 전략을 제안한다.

상용차량 확대계획 및 군수품 상용화 정책에 의해 군용차량은 민간차량의 플랫폼을 사용하여 개발되고 있다. 그러나 민간차량의 플랫폼 정보가 정비지침서, 전장회로도 등에 담겨 공개되고 있기 때문에 민간차량과 동일한 플랫폼을 사용하는 군용차량도 관련 정보가 노출될 수밖에 없다. 특히 군용차량에 미사일, 레이더 등을 탑재하면 전투 목적을 가진 혼성장비가 되므로 기술보호 적용을 검토하여 정보 유출을 차단해야한다. 혼성장비는 2가지 이상의 장비로 구성된 장비를 말하며, 주장 비 부분과 보조장비 부분으로 구분된다. 본 연구에서는 국내 혼성장비 차량부 시험평가 제도 및 방위산업기술 보호체계의 문제점을 도출하고, 전문가 인터뷰를 통해 개선방안을 도출하는 방법으로 연구를 진행하였다. 개선방안으로 전력화 시점을 기준으로 당시 최신 배출가스 기준이 반영된 엔진을 탑재한다는 조항을 추가하여 민간법령과 육군규정의 혼선을 줄이고, 상용화로 된 군수품의 역할 및 기능을 고려하여 방위산업기술의 요소기술로 선정하였다.

미래의 군사 전투 환경은 현재의 군(軍) 인구 감소 및 변화하는 양상에 맞춰 국방 분야에서 인공지능(AI)의 역할과 중요성이 급격히 확대되고 있다. 특히, 민간에서의 AI(Artificial Intelligence) 개발은 OpenAI의 Chat-GPT 등장 이후 초거대 AI(Super-Giant AI, also known as Hyperscale AI), 즉 파운데이션 모델을 기반으로 새로운 영역에서 부상하고 있다. 미국 국방부는 CDAO(Chief Digital and AI Office) 산하의 Task Force Lima를 조직하여 LLM(Large Language Model)과 생성형 AI의 활용 방안에 대한 연구를 진행 중이며, 중국, 이스라엘 등 군사 선진국에서도 초거대 AI를 군에 적용하기 위한 연구를 수행 중이다. 따라서, 우리 군도 무기체계에 초거대 AI 모델의 활용 가능성과 적용분야에 대한 연구의 필요성이 대두되고 있다. 본 논문에서는 기존의 특화 AI와 초거대 AI(파운데이션 모델, Foundation Model)의 특징 및 장·단점을 비교하고, 무기체계에 적용될 수 있는 초거대 AI의 새로운 적용분야를 발굴하였다. 본 연구는 미래의 적용 분야와 잠재적인 도전과제에 대한 예측과 함께 초거대 인공지능을 국방작전에 효과적으로 통합하기 위한 통찰력을 제공하고, 선진화된 인공지능 시대에서의 국방 정책 개발, 국제 안보 전략을 형성하는 데 기여할 것으로 기대한다.

In this study, numerical analysis was carried out on a complex pressure field of blast waves caused by the detonation of high explosives in various environments. The generated blast waves propagated in the air, upon the sudden release of high energy induced by the explosion. Reflected waves were created when the pressure waves encountered certain obstacles such as the ground or the walls of structures. The propagation of the blast waves and its interaction with the reflected waves were simulated. An adaptive mesh refinement was applied to improve the efficiency of distribution of computer resource, for the computational calculation of the blast wave propagation in a wide open space. In addition, the integration of the calculation domains for the explosive and air were considered when the maximum density of the explosive region was below critical value. The results were verified by comparison with the pressure time history from blast wave experiments performed under two topographical conditions.

This paper describes the application method of systems engineering for systems of systems and addressed the evolution in approach as organizations have evolved from standalone platform providers to architect of SoS. There is an increasing need to perform Systems of Systems Engineering(SoSE) in a global environment This has stimulated the development of new, innovative SoSE approaches that surpass current military and industry state-of-the-art systems engineering processes. The simple scaling of the former process was ineffective in dealing with global distributed large-scale integration efforts of network-centric systems of systems. A new SoSE process has been developed which is a significant breakthrough in the development of large complex systems and net-centric systems of systems. The SoSE process provides a complete, detailed and systematic development approach for military and civil SoS. In this point of view, this paper analyzes functionally the architecture framework, process and integrated verification & validation of SoSE. From results of this analysis, perspectives on the application of SoSE suitable for Korea aquisition environment are presented.

In this thesis, we propose an integrated simulation method of virtual tank simulators and an entity-based constructive simulation model for small unit tactical training. To do this, we first identify requirements for virtual-constructive integrated simulation in a synthetic environment. We then propose a virtual and constructive interoperation method where individual combat entities of virtual-constructive models are interacting with each others. We develop a method of aggregating individual combat entities into a larger combat unit and disaggregating an unit into entities from time to time. We also present a way of sharing synthetic environment information between the models. Finally, we suggest that for more effective interoperability, virtual and constructive models should be developed by using common combat object models. The proposed interoperation method can be extended to further live-virtual-constructive models.

Avionics system tends to be designed to have the integrated architecture, and it is getting difficult and complex to verify the flight-critical function because of sophisticated structure. In Korean Utility Helicopter, mission computer acts as the MUX Bus Controller to handle the data from both communication, identification, mission/display and survivability equipment inside Mission Equipment Package and aircraft subsystems such as fuel system and electrical system while it is interfacing with Automatic Flight Control System and Full-Authority Digital Engine Control via ARINC-429 bus. The Flight Displays which is classified as flight-critical function in aircraft is implemented on Primary Flight Display after mission computer processes data from AFCS in order to generate graphics. This paper defines the flight-critical function implemented in mission computer for KUH, and presents the static and dynamic test procedures which is performed on System Integration Laboratory along with Playback Recorder prior to flight test.

Since GPS receivers and INS algorithms do not work properly in the spinning vehicles due to change of the GPS signal and excess of the measurement limitation of the gyroscope, conventional GPS/INS integrated navigation systems do not provide accurate navigation outputs. This paper proposes a design method for GPS/INS integrated navigation systems of spinning vehicles. A special GPS receiver with a signal tracking loop for changed GPS signal caused by spinning and an INS with a roll estimation method are configured and the conventional integration filter is combined. The proposed method was verified through comparison of the navigation results. The result of the proposed method for the spinning vehicle was similar to that of the conventional navigation system without spinning.
