Research on Optimization of Air Defense Firepower Configuration for Warship Cooperating with Strategic Location on the Sea

Aiming at the problem of optimizing the firepower configuration for warships cooperating with strategic locations on the sea, the influence of air defense elements on firepower configuration is analyzed comprehensively, and the constraints of firepower configuration are put forward. Combined with factors such as the forward distance of the warship, the depth of the defense, the angle of the combat sector, and the direction of the enemy’s attack, based on the coastal defense forces and the warship, the firepower configuration models of air defense at a strategic location on the sea for a single warship and two warships’ coordinated air defense at important places are established, respectively. The forward range of a single warship and two warships’ cooperative air defense at sea is determined, and the defense depth expectation calculation formula is given. And according to the configuration of air defense firepower of the warship cooperating with strategic locations on the sea, the warship cooperating with maritime key area defense effectiveness model is constructed by using the random service system theory. Finally, under the hypothetical conditions, the numerical simulation experiments show that the proposed model and calculation formula are reasonable and effective, which can provide a certain theoretical basis for the firepower configuration of warships cooperating with strategic locations on the sea.
