Abstract

Simulation and modelling of surface-to-air missile defense (or surface based air defense – SBAD) is demanding process if we want to encompass most important capabilities of the force. There are certain aspects that need to be taken into account to create realistic models and simulation of SBAD forces exploitable not only in simulators, but also in the future SBAD weapon platforms with autonomous modes of operation. For example, most of today’s simulators do not provide realistic simulation of surfaced-to-air missile (SAM) systems in the matter of implemented guidance methods mathematic models, effective engagement envelope calculation, cluster tactics algorithms, etc. That is the reason why e.g. tactical simulators for jets pilots training provide just simple SAM models with low-level artificial intelligence and pilots are not prepared for real SAM systems behavior. These simulators do not have any sophisticated artificial intelligence and do not use advanced autonomous modes to challenge the trained pilots’ skills. This paper deals with these aspects and offers ways, how to model key SBAD capabilities to train jet pilots effectively against this type of threat.
