Abstract: Trade-off analysis is a key link of quantitative requirement determination of reliability/maintainability/supportability/testability (RMST) in the process of armored vehicle demonstration, but an effective method is absent. A method to balance RMST of armored vehicle based on system effectiveness is proposed. Based on the operation and management conditions of armored vehicle, an armored vehicle system effectiveness model is set up, which is made up of three parts, including operational readiness, battle dependability and capability. Two kinds of methods are proposed for the trade-off analysis of RMST, which are trade-off analysis methods based on comparison and sensitivity, respectively. This provides an effective method to determine RMST quantitative requirement of armored vehicle, and improve system effectiveness.

Key words: ordnance science and technology, armored vehicle, reliability, maintainability, supportability, testability, trade-off analysis, system effectiveness
