“…The emphasis is on tactical aircraft because the cost data are readily available, and because there is a great deal of received knowledge on the I determinants of these costs. 1 The cost of reliability may be incurred during either the development or procurement phase in the life cycle of an aircraft program. This cost must be balanced against the benefits of in,:reased combat capability and reduced support costs.…”

ReportReports are the most authoritative and most carefully considaMe products IDA publishes. They normally embady results of major projects which (a) have a direct bbaring oll decisions affecting major ptograms. in) address Issues of significant concern to the Executive Branch, theS Congress anti/or tihe public, or (c) address Issues that haveI * signilcant economic imnpi'cations. IDA Reports are reviewed by outside panels of experts to ensure thaetr high quality and relevance to the problems studied, and they are released by the President of IDA. Group ReportsU-JGroup Reports record the findings and results of IDA established workir.g groups and panels composed of senior Individuals addressing major Issues which otherwise would be tire subject of as IDA Report. IDA Group Reports ore reviewed by the senior Individuals responsihie for the project and others as selected by IDA to ensure their high quality and retevtnce to the problems studied, and are released by the President of IDA.

“…In addition to these factors, which Dyna-METRIC has been programmed to represent, the model was adapted to analyze the effects of battle damage and maintenance 3delay. To take advantage of this customized option, the user must supply the following battle damage operating scenario parameters: 0 Battle damage rate as the number of battle damage incidents per sortie 3 & Proportions of damage by cause.…”

“…A method for describing the distribution of devices in terms of cost and failure rate means was demonstrated in References [3] and [6]. In the former study, F-15C LRUs were partitioned into an 8-by-8 matrix using the following ranges based on the mean m: S3m to 6m…”
