We propose the live fire test process model based on systems engineering which consists of 4 phases i.e., review, setup, conduct and result. We also suggest the 4 phases acquisition model consisting of planning, execution, evaluation and disposal for test infrastructure. CMMI, TMMi and PMBOK are referred and hierarchial analysis method are adopted in developing the models. Thus, the detailed sub-processes are designed after defining higher level processes first. The higher level processes are defined by extracting common areas of all the test types. The low level processes for each specific test are designed by tailoring the higher level processes. By applying the proposed test process models into collaboration tool and information system, effective and systematic test processes for weapon systems are established.

영상탐색기가 적용된 유도무기체계의 경우 영상 추적 성능이 체계 성능에 큰 영향을 미치기 때문에 유도탄 비행 중 강인한 영상 추적 성능을 확보하는 것이 필수적이다. 유도탄의 실사격 비행시험이 실제 영상 추적 성능을 확인하기 위한 가장 확실한 방법이나, 실사격 시험만으로 영상 추적기법을 실험 및 수정/보완할 경우 매우 큰 비용 손실이 발생하게 된다. 따라서 영상탐색기를 유도탄 비행 궤적을 모의할 수 있는 비행체에 탑재 후 추적 성능을 시험하는 탑재비행시험(CFT; Captive Flight Test)을 수행하게 된다. 하지만 탐색기를 탑재하는 항공기가 유도탄의 완벽한 거동을 모의하는 것은 불가능하기 때문에 탑재 비행시험만으로 체계 성능을 확인할 수는 없다. 본 논문에서는 기존 영상추적기법 단독 성능 확인에만 한정되어 있던 탑재비행시험 영상을 통합비행 시뮬레이션에 적용하여 체계 성능 확인이 가능하도록 한 기법 연구 결과에 대하여 기술하였다. 이 연구는 탑재비행시험 영상의 활용도를 증대시킬 뿐만 아니라, 기존 합성영상 기반의 통합비행 시뮬레이션 기법의 사실성을 보완할 수 있어 다양한 측면에서 체계 성능 검증을 가능하게 하였다.

This study aims to introduce missile live-fire during the ship operational test and evaluation(T&E) as a means of verifying the integrated combat capability(ICC) of various systems installed on naval ships. The research method identified domestic and foreign T&E systems and cases, and reports related to ICC, which were written during the ship's design stage. As a result of research, Republic of Korea is not conducting the missile live-fire at the ship T&E stage due to the lack of relevant systems, while the U.S. is conducting it based on the mission-based T&E and the end-to-end test system. As a way to improve within the current domestic ship acquisition systems, the reaction time analysis, a quantitative analysis result of ICC calculated at the ship basic design stage, was proposed to be verified by missile live-fire during ship operational T&E.

본 논문에서는 오류 검출을 위해 소프트웨어 오류 추정 기법을 활용하여 항공무장 시스템인 공대지 사격의 오류 요인을 분석하기 위한 모델을 제시하고 모델을 기반으로 오류 요인 영향을 분석하였다. 선행 연구에서는 공대지 무기체계의 정확도에 영향을 미치는 오류 요소를 분석하고 결함위치추정 기법인 FBEL(Factor-based Error Localization) 기법을 제안하였으며 실사격 자료에 적용하여 오류 요소를 분석하였다. 그러나 다양한 요인 중 하나의 요인인 정확도를 고정하여 적용하므로 다양한 사격 정확도 변화에 따른 사격 오류 발생 요소와의 상관관계는 밝히지 못하였다. 본 연구에서는 사격 오류 요소의 상관관계 분석을 통하여 보다 세밀한 오류 분석 모델을 제시하고 시간과 비용이 제한적이거나 테스트 케이스가 적은 상태에서 오류 발생 가능 요소를 추정하는 방법을 제안한다. 제안된 방법은 실사격 자료를 이용한 시뮬레이션을 통해 그 효용성을 입증하였으며, 무기체계 공대지 시험평가에서 어떤 요소들이 정확도에 영향을 미치는 지를 분석하는데 성공적으로 활용될 수 있음을 보였다.

This paper deals with the calculation of vulnerable areas of critical components required for the assessment of naval ship's vulnerability. Taking into account the effectiveness of threatening weapons, the probability density function of damage was used to assess vulnerable areas or vulnerabilities of critical components. It is shown that the vulnerable area of critical component can be simply computed from the damage function. Considering the weapon effectiveness of fragmentation and explosion on the target, both Carleton Damage Function and Rectangular Cookie Cutter Function representing the probability of damage are applied to the vulnerable area assessment. Carleton damage function is utilized to describe the weapon-target interaction in the vulnerability analyses. A problem of blast effect against an assumed naval ship is chosen as a case study. Vulnerability is evaluated by applying the suggested method to the equipments arranged in the engine room of the virtual ship.

Successful development of weapon systems requires a stringent verification and validation (V&V) process due to the nature of the weapons in which continual increase of operational capability makes the system requirements more complicated to meet. Thus, test and evaluation (T&E) of weapon systems is becoming more difficult. In such a situation, live fire tests appear to be effective and useful methods in not only carrying out V&V of the weapon systems under development, but also increasing the maturity of the end users operability of the system. However, during the process for live fire tests, a variety of accidents or mishaps can happen due to explosion, pyro, separation, and so on. As such, appropriate means to mitigate mishap possibilities should be provided and applied during the live fire tests. To study a way of how to accomplish it is the objective of this paper. To do so, top-level sources of hazard are first identified. A framework for T&E is also described. Then, to enhance the test range safety, it is discussed how test scenarios can be generated. The proposed method is based on the use of the anticipatory failure determination (AFD) and multiple event tree analysis (ETA) in analyzing range safety. It is intended to identify unexpected hazard components even in the environment with constraints. It is therefore expected to reduce accident possibilities as an alternative to the traditional root-cause analysis.

양산되어 군에 전력화되는 정밀 유도무기의 경우, 장기 저장된 이후 사격시험을 수행함으로써 최종 성능을 확인할 수 있는 특성을 가지고 있다. 현재 군에서 운용되고 있는 ${\bigcirc}{\bigcirc}$ 유도무기 또한 군 전력화 이후 실사격 시험을 통하여 유도무기의 성능 및 신뢰도를 지속적으로 확인하고 있다. 특히, '00년 군 주관 실 사격시험에서는 유도무기 발사관 전방덮개조립체 구성품인 '링, 지지용'이 유도무기가 발사되는 과정에서 추진 날개에 걸려 함께 이탈한 결과가 확인되었고, 이는 추진 날개 전개를 방해하여 유도무기 비행 성능에 영향을 주었다. 이 결과를 기반으로 기존 실 사격시험을 성공한 유도무기 발사관을 조사한 결과, '링, 지지용'의 발사관 이격 현상이 확인되어 '링, 지지용' 이격/이탈 현상에 대한 근본적인 해결 방안 수립 필요성을 인지하게 되었다. 본 연구는 실 사격시험 결과로부터 도출된 유도무기 발사성능 개선사항을 제시하고, 이를 ${\bigcirc}{\bigcirc}$ 유도무기에 적용하여 최종적인 발사성능 개선 효과 및 시험결과를 소개한다.

In weapon systems development, live fire tests have been frequently adopted to evaluate the performance of the systems under development. Therefore, it is necessary to ensure safety in the test ranges where the live fire tests can cause serious hazards. During the tests, a special care must be taken to protect the test and evaluation (T&E) personnel and also test assets from potential danger and hazards. Thus, the development and management of the range safety process is quite important in the tests of guided missiles and artillery considering the explosive power of the destruction. Note also that with a newly evolving era of weapon systems such as laser, EMP and non-lethal weapons, the test procedure for such systems is very complex. Therefore, keeping the safety level in the test ranges is getting more difficult due to the increased unpredictability for unknown hazards. The objective of this paper is to study on how to enhance the safety in the test ranges. To do so, an approach is proposed based on model-based systems engineering (MBSE). Specifically, a functional architecture is derived utilizing the MBSE method for the design of the range safety process under the condition that the derived architecture must satisfy both the complex test situation and the safety requirements. The architecture developed in the paper has also been investigated by simulation using a computer-aided systems engineering tool. The systematic application of this study in weapon live tests is expected to reduce unexpected hazards and test design time. Our approach is intended to be a trial to get closer to the recent theme in T&E community, "Testing at the speed of stakeholder's need and rapid requirement for rapid acquisition."

The live fire test has been playing a critical role in evaluating the goals-to-meet of the weapon systems which utilize the power of explosives. As such, the successful development of the test systems therein is quite important. The test systems development covers that of ranges and facilities including system-level key components such as mission control, instrumentation or observation, safety control, electric power, launch pad, and so on. In addition, proper operational guidelines are needed with well-trained test and operation personnel. The emerging weapon systems to be deployed in future battle field would thus have to be more precise and dynamic, smarter, thereby requiring more elaboration. Furthermore, the safety consideration is becoming more serious due to the ever-increasing power of explosives. In such a situation, development of live fire test systems seems to be challenging. The objective of the paper is on how to incorporate the safety and other requirements in the development. To achieve the goal, an architectural approach is adopted by utilizing both the system components relationship and safety requirement when advanced instrumentation technology needs to be developed and deteriorated components of the range are replaced. As an evaluation method, it is studied how the level of maturity of the test systems development can be assessed particularly with the safety requirement considered. Based on the concepts of both systems engineering and SoS (System-of-Systems) engineering process, an enhanced model for the system readiness level is proposed by incorporating safety. The maturity model proposed would be helpful in assessing the maturity of safety-critical systems development whereas the costing model would provide a guide on how the reasonable test resource allocation plan can be made, which is based on the live fire test scenario of future complex weapon systems such as SoS.
