چکیده
Program Executive Office Ground Combat Systems (PEO GCS) manages the development, systems integration, acquisition, testing, fielding, modernization and sustainment of the U.S. Army’s ground combat systems to provide world-class, affordable and relevant capabilities to soldiers and marines. Systems include the Abrams main battle tank, Bradley Family of Vehicles (FoV), self-propelled howitzers, Armored Knight FoV, M113 armored personnel carrier, M88 HERCULES, armored multipurpose vehicle, Stryker FoV, ground combat vehicle, robotics and unmanned ground systems. PEO GCS operates with a multibillion-dollar annual budget and retains more than 1,200 military and civilian employees, including three board-selected Army project managers and one U.S. Marine Corps joint project manager.

The Fast Theater Model (FATHM)
OR METHODOLOGIES Linear Programming and Markov Processes ABSTRACT FATHM is a large-scale attrition model of two-sided ground combat, including air strikes by Blue on Red. While FATHM has borrowed extensively from other combat models, it also exhibits some unique features, particularly its use of linear programming calls to solve a sequence of air-to-ground engagements that are interspersed amon...
متن کاملWeapon scheduling in naval combat systems for maximization of defense capabilities
Air defense is a crucial area for all naval combat systems. In this study, we consider a warship equipped with an air-defense weapon that targets incoming threats using surface-to-air missiles. We define the weapon scheduling problem as the optimal scheduling of a set of surface-to-air missiles of a warship to a set of attacking air threats. The optimal scheduling of the weapon results in an in...
متن کاملDistributed Computation in the Digitized Battlefield
A distributed computation is defined as several computers performing computation for a common purpose. There are three basic characteristics of this kind of systems, multiplicity of nodes, interconnection of nodes, and shared states among these nodes. This paradigm is analogous to a group of combat vehicles in a battlefield, pursuing a common goal. The three characteristics stated above have co...
متن کاملWhat Can Be Accomplished Using a Full Range of Joint Assets without Close Combat?
The second question posed by the ASB asked whether the mission can be accomplished without committing ground forces. The excursions employ only long-range fires targeted on the basis of remote and tactical or organic sensor assets. Among the long-range fires systems available in this time frame are air, ground, and naval precision weapons. In addition to the remote assets considered in Chapter ...
متن کاملRepresenting Ground Robotic Systems in Battlefield Simulations
As the Army continues to develop robotic systems for combat and combat support missions, it needs to also develop representations of intelligent system performance for its battlefield simulation tools. These simulation tools differ considerably in their level of abstraction, flexibility, and scale. Constructing the actual performance model requires the modeler to consider three factors: 1) the ...
