The test purpose was to determine the suitability of the Dyna-METRIC computer model for analyzing theater wartime aircraft fleet sustainability and parts requirements. Dyna-METRIC was (1) compared to the Overview and PARCOM Models used in the CAA Aircraft Spare Stockage Methodology Study and (2) evaluated for representing various controlled-substitution policies. Results suggested that Dyna-METRIC can (1) effectively represent a theater Army helicopter force in wartime, (2) provide comparable results to Overview and PARCOM, (3) perform fleet capability assessments under various controlled-substitution policies, and (4) answer a broad range of aircraft logistics questions. Dyna-METRIC is an excellent model with a high expectation of utility in detailed studies of the Army aircraft logistics system. Additional work would substantiate its applicability and further define and alleviate its limitations.
