Integrated Tactical Communications System. Task V. Candidate Mid-Range Communication Systems. Volume IV. Candidate Evaluations.

摘要

The candidate communications systems developed in the design phase of the Task V are costed and evaluated for effectiveness. Section 2.0 describes briefly the six primary candidates. Section 3.0 presents the life cycle cost computations for each candidate. Section 4.0 describes the determination of relative effectiveness of each candidate. Section 5.0 examines the cost-effectiveness of hardware and doctrine combinations which were not investigated in the main analysis. Section 6.0 highlights the major cost and effectiveness differences among the candidates. Section 7.0 refines the candidates to correct any design deficiencies. Section 8.0 contains the rationale used to select the most cost-effective system. Section 9.0 presents the conclusions reached regarding this system.
