Analysis of the use of simulation systems in the process of making management decisions
Abstract
Purpose: To analyze the use of the Joint Conflict and Tactical Simulation (JCATS) and Steel Beasts Pro simulation systems.
Method: The analysis is based on an analytical method based on the assessment of facts and information related to simulation modeling systems.
Research results: An analysis was conducted, and relevant conclusions were substantiated regarding the implementation of simulation modeling systems in the field of state border protection.
Theoretical value of the study: The analysis allows for the introduction of new approaches to management decision-making by military management bodies and heads of state border protection units with sufficient adequacy.
Originality of the study: The novelty lies in the introduction of new mechanisms in the field of state border protection.
Future research: In the course of further research, it is advisable to work out scenarios of aggravation of the situation at the state border and the introduction of simulation modeling.
