A new framework of a decision support system for air to air combat tasks

We formulate and integrate some aspects of a fighter-pilot's decision making performance into a framework that can be used as a decision support system in air to air combat. The considered situation is an isolated air combat that incorporates two opposing fighters. The pilot's decision making preferences are used to establish the framework and to generate the rules governing its blocks. Issues such as stress, workload and any other degrading factors are ignored. An example is introduced to show how a combat problem fits into the proposed framework.
