THE QUANTITY ASSESMENT OF THE HUMAN FACTOR IN UNIT COMBAT CAPABILITY

Abstract

In the paper, the task of quantity assessment of the human factor has been considered in the determination of the unit combat capability. For determination of personal (staff) combat potential a physical drill, a combat training, a moral and psychological training, as well as, a battle experience have been taken into account as human factors. Besides this, an influence of a field and an environment conditions have been taken into account. Using these numerical data and weapon effectiveness coefficients, the method of unit combat capability (a dynamic power) calculations has been offered. In accordance to this method, first, the static power of unit has been determined, then the battle and environment conditions are been taken account.
