This research used computer simulation to develop a method to determine the maximum number of interceptors that can be simultaneously controlled in a theater tactical air defense scenario. Intercept control is provided by air weapons controllers assigned to the radar systems that make up the Tactical Air Control system (TACS). Analysis of a research questionnaire indicated that the average weapons controller could simultaneously control either 3.41 or 4.71 flights of interceptor aircraft depending on the range of the interceptor internal radar system (less than/greater than 50 miles against a one square meter target). The computer simulation was built so that the average control capability of the entire theater closely approximated this average capacity.
