Evaluation of an Efficient Approximation to Many-on-Many Stochastic Combats

A time-varying nonhomogeneous poisson process approximation of the nonexponential stochastic Lanchester model is defined and evaluated over a range of combat parameters including initial force sizes. breakpoints. and interkilling random variables. The proposed approximation is far excellent and takes much less CPU time than the existing models. The sensitivity analysis was peformed to evaluate the efficiency of the proposed model and three recommended factors are suggested to guide the combat operators.
