On the IDAGAM I Combat Model.

Abstract : This paper is a reviewed and critique of the IDAGAM I theater-level simulation model of conventional air-ground warfare. The principal emphasis is on identification and analysis of assumptions underlying the attrition equations used in the model. Also treated are organization, geography, resources, and FFBA movement computation. Critical evaluations and suggestions for improvements in the model are presented. While not a complete description, this paper does represent the most detailed and careful report on the IDAGAM I model that has been prepared by an independent reviewer. (Author)
