MODELING AND SIMULATION BASED SYSTEM INTEGRATION APPROACH

This paper describes a modeling and simulation (M&S) based approach to provide life cycle support for the Bradley Fighting Vehicle (BFV) M2A3. The BFV A3 is being developed under an Engineering and Manufacturing Development (EMD) program at United Defense LP (UDLP). The BFV A3 Upgrade program incorporates lessons learned in the Desert Storm Operation. Upgrades are primarily in the area of fire control, electronics and software.
