An Examination of Options to Reduce Underway Training Days through the Use of Simulation 01-Jan-2008
Authors:  Christopher Paul; Jerry M Sollinger; Harry J Thie; Roland J Yardley; Alisa Rhee; RAND NATIONAL DEFENSE RESEARCH INST SANTA MONICA CA
The full text of this report is not available and therefore is not for sale. This information is provided for reference purposes only.The U.S. Navy trains its surface combatant ship crews through a combination of shore-based, onboard pier-side, and underway training. Much of this training has traditionally involved significant periods of underway time, which allows units to achieve required certifications and readiness levels. Underway training is expensive, however, because fuel and consumables are expended while a ship is underway; wear and tear on operating equipment also drive up maintenance costs. One day's ...

Authors:  William S. Wales; NAVAL POSTGRADUATE SCHOOL MONTEREY CA
The full text of this report is available for sale.During the 1970s and 1980s, there existed a gap between the strategic mobility requirement and the nation's cargo assets to meet this requirement. Consequently, the Military Airlift Command developed and implemented the Civil Reserve Air Fleet Enhancement Program (CEP) to bridge this gap. Civilian airlines were given monetary and other incentives to modify their existing wide- body passenger aircraft enabling them to carry military-sized cargo in the event of military ...

The central core of this ...


The Operational Failure of U.S. Submarines at the Battle of Midway - and Implications for Today 20 MAY 96 31 pages
Authors:  Thomas G. Hunnicutt; NAVAL WAR COLL NEWPORT RI JOINT MILITARY OPERATIONS DEPT
The full text of this report is available for sale.U.S. submarine operational failure led to tactical insignificance at the Battle of Midway. This was a remarkable outcome since interwar U.S. policy, submarine design, and fleet exercises dictated fleet support by submarines. From today's view this failure is neither unique to a platform nor specific to an operation. It can and does cross all services. The operational failure at Midway resulted from the failure to abide by the operational art ...

Authors:  William H. Frye; STANFORD RESEARCH INST MENLO PARK CA NAVAL WARFARE RESEARCH CENTER
The full text of this report is available for sale.We are concerned with Fleet Defense Planning Problems in which the composition of both sides is fixed, each side is uncertain about what the other side has and how it will use what it has, and the planner wants to know how best to use his forces when opposed by an intelligent, responsive enemy. The principal study outputs of value in this class of problems are the optimal decisions (equivalently, ...


Fleet Commanders: Afloat or Ashore, AUG 1976
Authors:  Ray Peet; Michael E. Melich; CENTER FOR NAVAL ANALYSES ARLINGTON VA
The full text of this report is not available and therefore is not for sale. This information is provided for reference purposes only.A major fleet exercise in 1970 commanded by Admiral Peet and subsequently evaluated by Dr. Melich left both men with a lot of questions. The principal one, still officially unresolved, is whether a fleet commander needs to be, or even can afford to be, on the bridge of a flagship in view of modern sensor and communications capabilities.


An Approach to a Game Theoretic Treatment of Fleet Defense. 30 APR 1976
Authors:  William H. Frye; STANFORD RESEARCH INST MENLO PARK CA NAVAL WARFARE RESEARCH CENTER
The full text of this report is not available and therefore is not for sale. This information is provided for reference purposes only.This technical note shows, largely by means of a fairly complex example, how realistic Fleet Defense problems may be modeled using game theory. Emphasis is placed on the structuring of the tactical problem as opposed to obtaining its game theoretic solution; given the paucity of realistic game solutions in use by the Navy this emphasis is felt to be justified. The overall approach is then outlined; its essential ideas are ...
