UAV Combat Simulation Method Based on AFSIM and DoDAF

This paper proposes a UAV combat simulation method integrating AFSIM and DoDAF to address the complexity of UAV combat systems. DoDAF establishes a multi-view architecture mode to clarify logical relationships between UAVs and weapon systems, laying a structured foundation. AFSIM implements dynamic simulation of combat processes by mapping DoDAF’s static architecture to its dynamic elements, simulating UAV maneuver, situation awareness, and strikes. A UAV search-and-strike mission scenario test shows the method accurately simulates collaborative behavior in target searching, tracking, and engaging. This method features a high degree of standardization and normalization, providing a foundation for the evaluation of UAV combat effectiveness and strategy optimization.
