Abstract :
The military is a big user of discrete event simulation models. The use of these models range from training and wargaming their constructive use in important military analyses. In this paper we discuss the uses of military simulation, the issues associated with military simulation to include categorizations of various types of military simulation. We then discuss three particular simulation studies undertaken with the Air Force Institute of Technology´s Department of Operational Science focused on important Air Force and Army issues
