Present deficiencies

self-protection of battlefield helicopters a
holistic view

• Lack of understanding of EWSP in the set of
  helicopter survivability tools
• Lack of tools for communicating on EWSP with
  stakeholders
• Disconnected information on factors contributing
  to the effectiveness of EWSP
• Consequence of the present study Definition of
  the term holistic view

The choice of system dynamics
LECTIO PRECURSORIA Electronic warfare
self-protection of battlefield helicopters a
holistic view

• Which methodology to chose?- Textual
  information- Tabulated information- Graphical
  information- Flow and block diagrams-
  Word-and-arrow diagrams, e.g. CLDs - Checklands
  soft system methodology (SSM)- (Forrester)
  system dynamics- Mathematical tools for
  computation

Synthesis 4 Campaign Mission MS
LECTIO PRECURSORIA Electronic warfare
self-protection of battlefield helicopters a
holistic view

• Campaign Model (Lanchester equations) Too much
  details in a model easily clutters the main
  problem under study
• Mission Model (the mission process) Surprise and
  terrain masking really important to
  survivability when they are feasible EWSP is
  therefore of less importance
• Further work is required on applying FSD

Contributions to scientific thinking
LECTIO PRECURSORIA Electronic warfare
self-protection of battlefield helicopters a
holistic view

• Lack of understanding ? Improved under-standing
  of EWSP in the set of helicopter survivability
  tools
• Lack of tools for communicating on EWSP with
  stakeholders ? Novel use of system dynamics to
  problems of EWSP, although further investigation
  is needed
• Disconnected information on ? United factors
  contributing to the effectiveness of EWSP
• Definition of the term holistic view ? The
  global survivability paradigm
