Abstract

As weapon systems become complex in terms of the scale and functionality, the required time to completethe test and evaluation (T&E) process is inevitably getting longer. However, nowadays the reduction of T&Eperiod becomes one of the core targets in the weapon systems acquisition programs. This is because thereduced time for T&E process can yield the reduction of defense budget and also faster deployment of theweapon systems, thereby having a competitive edge over rival countries. On the other hand, in weaponsystems development the management of reliability, availability, maintainability and safety (RAMS), and risk isconsidered important to keep competitiveness and thus has been carried out separately. Thus, the objective ofthis paper is to study on improving the T&E process by integrating the RAMS and risk management processin it. To do so, the related processes are analyzed and modeled first. Then an integrated process model isdeveloped. The resulting model is equipped with the traceability among the data and interfaces that aregenerated from the T&E and RAMS/risk processes. As a case study, the model developed is applied in tanksdevelopment. The effective use of the traceability is expected to reduce the time and cost required to completeT&E process.
