System Effectiveness Modules (Includes Analysis BOT Module)

The following optional analysis modules are advanced PRODAS modules and require the PRODAS Main Analysis in order to run. All four of these modules include the Analysis BOT module (AT639/A)

The system effectiveness series of analyses is designed to evaluate the lethality of gun ammunition-fire control systems against a variety of targets.

There are analysis modules designed to evaluate many different missions:

  • Air Defense (ground to air)
  • Anti-ship Missile Defense (ship to air)
  • Ground Warfare (ground to ground)
  • Air Warfare (air to air, both fixed wing and helicopter)
  • Ground Support (air to ground, fixed wing, helicopter, and gunship)

Using this suite of tools, you can quickly evaluate candidate ammunition and gun systems, burst lengths, targets, sensor errors, and system accuracy. Analysis output is focused on the effectiveness of hitting and killing the intended target. Subsequent analysis (maintainability, reliability, affordability, life cycle) is required to determine cost-effective solution parameters.
