Effectiveness Measurement of UAV Combat in Uncertain Environment

Abstract

This paper focuses on the combat effectiveness measurement of UAV for reconnaissance and combat. Based on the establishment of typical battlefield scenarios and UAV reconnaissance and strike probability models, it focuses on the analysis and measurement of combat effectiveness when a single UAV performs reconnaissance strikes. The three main factors affecting UAV combat effectiveness—the true target interpretation probability, sensor parameters, and the number of warheads—are subjected to numerical simulation analysis. Finally, the UAV design parameters for reconnaissance and strike integration with optimal combat effectiveness are obtained: number of warheads are 12, interpretation probability of true target is 0.84, Sensor ROC curve parameters are 10.
