Modeling Short-Range Ballistic Missile Defense and Israel's Iron Dome System
This paper develops a model of short-range ballistic missile defense and uses it to study the performance of Israel’s Iron Dome system. The deterministic base model allows for inaccurate missiles, unsuccessful interceptions, and civil defense. Model enhancements consider the trade-offs in attacking the interception system, the difficulties faced by militants in assembling large salvos, and the ...
متن کاملBallistic Missile Defense Organization
Given the agreement among TCSCF, MP2, and MRMP methods, it is concluded that the structure of Si9H12 is symmetric, that dynamic correlation does not play a major role in determining the structure, and that DFT incorrectly predicts Si9H12 to be buckled.
متن کاملSoftware for Ballistic Missile Defense
A battle management system for comprehensive ballistic missile defense must perform with near perfection and extraordinarily reliability. It will be complex to an unprecedented degree, untestable in a realistic environment, and provide minimal time for human intervention. The feasibility of designing and developing such a system (requiring upwards of ten million lines of code) is examined in li...
متن کاملThe Growing Importance of Ballistic Missile Defense
The idea of ballistic missile defense (BMD) is not new. It originally emerged in the early years of the Cold War as part of the overall strategic competition between the United States and the Soviet Union. The notion that ballistic missiles could be intercepted and destroyed in flight offered the prospect of a system of security based upon an “active defense” rather than the unnerving notion of...
متن کاملAirborne Boost-Phase Ballistic Missile Defense
Boost-phase ballistic missile defense is alluring because rocket boosters are easy to detect and track, they are relatively vulnerable due to the large axial loads on a missile under powered flight, the entire payload (single or multiple warheads and midcourse penetration aids) may be destroyed in a single shot, and countermeasures to defeat boostphase defense are more difficult to devise than ...
