HARDMAN II, an automated form of HARDMAN (Hardware vs. Manpower) analysis was applied to two new Army air defense systems for purposes of estimating maintainer workload and maintenance manpower requirements. Estimates showed a shortfall in official manpower allocations. Partially as a result of the HARDMAN II analyses, the Army decided to add more maintainers to the organization supporting both systems.

Aiming at the problem of certain type air defense cluster rockets to intercept low-altitude targets, this paper discuses vulnerability and damage mechanism of a typical cruise missile target, and establishes a simulation analysis algorithms based on Monte Carlo Method with the test error data, which achieves emulation calculation of damage probability of air defense rockets.

The initial studies that have been conducted to derive a standard set of geometric symbols for application to future radar assisted air defense systems are presented. Experiment I was aimed at determining whether or not particular shapes exist in our population as stereotypes for the meanings friendly, hostile, and unknown. The second step in the research was directed towards finding a set of symbols which can be easily discriminated and quickly reacted to in a paper-and-pencil mode.
