Rationale
• Numbers of threats, guidance methods, and countermeasures are increasing• 650 missile systems developed• 200-300 missile systems currently deployed
(http://missile.index.ne.jp)
• Not easy to find the best action• Takes training to do it in time• Solution depends on mission
• “The worlds best pilot as the co-pilot”• A work in progress…
3DAT/SENApril 21, 2006
Challenges
• Lack of information• Both in flight and in development
• Information may be self-contradictory• Onboard systems may be wrong
• Best solution depends on a lot of parameters• Avionics, route, scenario, inventory, …
• Should be found in real-time

Countermeasures
• Jammer• Emits RF radiation• Very “loud”
• Towed Decoy• A towed jammer• Use once only• Limited resource
• Chaff• Forms a cloud with
a RCS comparable to that of the aircraft
• Limited resource

Other Constraints
• The towed decoy can be used a limited number of times (~3)
• Chaff can be dispensed a limited number of times (~30)
• No countermeasure should be chosen, if none is needed

Concluding Remarks
• Is it better to look ahead? How much?
• Can calculations be done fast enough? What should be the timeframe?
• Does uncertainty make a difference?
