Mission Planning for Anti-Ship Missile Cluster Based on the Entire Combat Process Optimization

A mission planning scheme for the anti-ship missile cluster is proposed in this article from the perspective of the entire combat process, including penetration, detection, and striking, to assign the corresponding target and weapon type to each missile. Firstly, aiming at the challenge of mission planning based on the entire combat process, the joint optimization model incorporating each phase is proposed in this paper. Next, the sub-functions for the penetration, detection, and striking have been designed in detail. Finally, the particle swarm optimization algorithm is adopted to solve the effectiveness-cost ratio (the ratio of the probability of destroying the target group to the cost of all missiles) as the objective function. The effectiveness of the algorithm is verified through simulation.
