This method explores a method of aggregating the measures of effectiveness of a weapon system from its characteristics. With this method, the constant sum method and multiple regression are used to develop a functional relationship between system effectiveness and system characteristics. As an example, a study of a tank weapon system was${\cdot}$conducted with data from the U.S. Army Armor School. It was concluded that the aggregation method is feasible, and that for the tank system studied, the reciprocals of system characteristics give a good estimating equation for measuring tank system effectiveness.
