$149,828Benefits:
Phase II will produce a functional tool to capture operational effectiveness and cost/benefit relationships within a single analysis. This will support AFRLs needs and benefit other analytically chartered organizations doing course of action operational planning, system acquisition and force structure decisions, including Analyses of Alternatives (AoAs). The tool will provide USAF/USN/USMC/USA senior decision-makers with informed insights to evaluate alternative capability and weapon investment strategies. Current STORM users across DoD will benefit from this capability as it allows them to explicitly trade lethality and survivability during STORMs air interdiction planning process, thus significantly reducing the effort required to create an effective, survivable interdiction plan. Optimization in STORM that explicitly considers cost (including asset operational use and fuel cost) in the context of operational effectiveness will enhance the ability of USAF and other Services to understand and assess energy and other sustainability issues.
