Modeling and simulation: a Department of Defense critical technology

The US Department of Defense has identified twenty technologies critical to ensuring the long-term qualitative superiority of United States weapons systems. Simulation and modeling technology, one of these twenty, was categorized as one which offered the most immediate advances in weapon systems capabilities. A linkage is drawn between twelve major long-term goals reflecting needed military capability and the twenty critical technologies. The author discusses the simulation and modeling technology and his view of how US Air Force needs affect this technology.<
