Abstract

In general, the mission of the Air Defense Systems Integration Division is to insure a properly time-phased and effective Air Defense Mission System. (The definition of mission system will become clear later on in this paper.) With such an aim in view, the basic commodity with which this organization must deal is systems engineering, for it is necessary to combine the various functions of weapon systems, environment systems, and support systems into a co-ordinated over-all master system.
