Abstract

The ammunition-feed system (AFS) is one of the key systems of a MBT (Main Battle Tank), having general and much impact on the MBT overall performance. To assess the impact and technical level of AFS projects synthetically, accurately and quantifiably in order to choose the project according with overall requirements from many projects as well as possible, it is necessary to establish an index assessment system. In this paper, based on the analysis of the relationship between performance of the AFS and the MBT overall, an AFS’s matchability with the MBT overall concept is proposed, as well as the related assessment index. Taking the typical AFS in MBTs all over the world as the examples, AFS’s matchability with MBT overall is analyzed and evaluated through AHP (Analytic Hierarchy Process), which is a common system engineering methodology, and the application process of the index assessment system is displayed. In the end, the problems needing attention and advice during operation are given.
