Viewing a ship as a weapon system is not a new concept. An excellent example is the Fleet Ballistic Missile (FBM) Submarine. Within its community, the FBM is perceived as a weapon system consisting of the v/Capon subsystem, the navigation subsystem, and the ship subsystem. There are good engineering reasons for this view: allocating resources, organizing information, and providing coordination. Further, as a v/Capon system the ship must respond to weapons execution orders as well as direction from all safety and protective systems. In practice, all warships are designed as weapons systems but the integration of their systems varies within wide limits. The net result is that weapon system performance may become decoupled from key ship design factors. In addition to the failure to achieve the necessary integration of the weapons subsystem components, v/Capon system performance may be considered to be synonymous with mission success at the expense of understanding those factors necessary tar mission survival. This paper presents a model of a ship as a weapons system that provides a framework for the trade studies that impact the ship. It characterizes both the offensive and defensive interactions with the environment and provides context for the development of the ship's subsystems.
