The Combat Modeling Lab (CML) provides direct support to the Department of Operational Sciences, and AFIT at large, by exposing students to a variety of combat models from the Air Force Standard Analysis Toolkit (AFSAT) in their graduate course work and in research projects. Within the combat modeling curriculum, students are exposed to at least one model from the Mission, and Campaign level – as shown in Figure 1. Current models used include EADSIM, SEAS, and THUNDER. Recent research projects have been done using these models in addition to BRAWLER and CFAM. Select this link to see a list that includes recent combat modeling theses to illustrate the kinds of areas being looked at with different AFSAT models, as well as other combat models or models built by our students for specific research projects.
