1	On optimising FAC(M) counter missile tactics : a dynamic simulation model to optimise soft kill tactics employed by a generic fast attack craft against a generic surface-to-surface, fire-and-forget missile Engelbrecht, Gerhard Nieuwoudt 11 1900 (has links) The aim of this dissertation is to show how counter missile tactics for a fast attack craft armed with missiles [FAC(M)] against a surface-to-surface, fireand- forget missile [SSM] can be optimised. As a result the ship and missile will be modelled as generic concepts while the environment will be a chosen area of operations. The applicable methodology is to simulate the ship, missile and environment as well as the interactions between them. At the same time, the ship will be carrying out combinations of five separate missile counter measures. The methodology is then to build a dynamic simulation model to optimise soft kill tactics by a generic F AC(M) against a generic SSM in the chosen environment and evaluate the outcome of the simulation by viewing the experiment as a 25 factorial design and to analyse it accordingly. / Operations Research / M.Sc.
