Threat scenarios are described by the type of anti-ship cruise missile, the number of threat missiles, the total duration of the arrival window, and the relative spacing of targets within the threat stream. SCAM reveals that under various threat configurations it is often advantageous to fire the SEASPARROW at groups of threats in the target stream, rather than always the nearest threat, and further that this policy is robust for a large set of threat scenarios. 收起
