Abstract

This paper presents a model, method and computer tool for military mission planning. The actions on the battlefield should be planned on the basis of reconnaissance (decision situation recognition) and the possibility of own troops action and counteractions of the enemy. A course of action (CoA) should be verified and we propose a special tool for recommendation of CoA. Therefore, the pattern recognition method for identification of the decision situation is presented in the paper. The decision situation being identified is a basis for choosing CoA because with each decision situation a few typical CoA frames are connected. There is also a short description of the deterministic simulator, which is described on the basis of combat model, taking into account complimentary processes of firing and movement. The toolset presented with the CoA editor, military equipment, simulator manager and multicriteria estimation of CoA.
