As the Army pushes ahead with the development of intelligent vehicle systems, TARDEC is working to meet these challenges by developing platforms with greater autonomy. Using TRADOC's CASTFOREM model, the Army's premier ground combat simulation model, my office provides operational effectiveness analysis to quantify the battlefield effectiveness of TARDEC concepts. This paper will first review our past efforts to provide operational effectiveness analysis to TARDEC's intelligent vehicle programs. A few years ago, our office performed a comprehensive evaluation of TARDEC's RAVE concepts, evaluating the effectiveness of semi- and fully-autonomous platforms. The paper will then discuss the many challenges associated with modeling autonomous and semi- autonomous platforms. These challenges are related to the platform's behaviors and the unique threats faced by unmanned platforms.
