A computer simulation of an aircraft making a low level penetration over hostile terrain is described. The model discussed is intended as a tool for the determination of appropriate defensive tactics for aircraft upon receiving fire from conventional ground weapons. In any computer model of a ground to air combat environment it is essential to have a realistic simulation of the terrain. The method used in this simulation is discussed and shown to be extremely accurate. (Author)
