Abstract

The role of modeling, simulation and analysis (MS&A) in defense systems development is continuously evolving as simulation-based design, simulation-based acquisition, and simulation-based training in Republic of Korea. MS&A is now considered as mandatory activity in the areas of the development of operational concept for the newly developed weapon systems, requirements analysis and verification, system simulations for performance evaluation, system and component design by simulation, test and evaluation as simulation, and the development of training systems throughout the life cycle of defense R&D program. However, one of the most difficult aspects of defense MS&A activities is to decide which parts of the R&D program should be supported by MS&A in the consideration of limited resources. In addition, reusability and extensibility of defense MS&A systems becomes not only technical issues but also programmatic ones as a way of reducing development cost. Recently, most shipboard sensor and weapon systems are required to be integrated with surface ship combat systems in order to centralize all of information to command and control systems. However, shipboard systems integration requires extremely complex and time-consuming processes in order to integrate each system into combat systems. Development of land-based target system (LBTS) is now represented as s solution to overcome difficulties of shipboard systems integration processes. In general, LBTS should act not only as a test system in order to support test and evaluation activities but also as a target system which could be used and evolved with the sub-systems or components of defense systems throughout the development life cycle. In this paper, MS&A activities which were exhibited throughout the development of LBTS in the part of Korean anti-submarine missile development program are represented.
