Abstract: The acquisition probability declines dramatically when the rocket-assisted torpedoes attack a distant target. To solve this problem, the salvo mode of artificial scatter, which is different from traditional salvo, is presented according to the searching mode of rocket-assisted torpedo and the features of antisubmarine operation. The analytical models for two kinds of salvo modes are developed based on the basic idea of total probability. The acquisition probabilities at different shooting ranges under the operation modes of attacking the prepositive point and current point of torpedo are calculated by two models, respectively. The results agree well with the simulation test results. When the current point shooting mode is adopted, the acquisition probability using the salvo mode of artificial scatter is higher than that by traditional salvo at long shooting range.

Key words: probability theory, rocket-assisted torpedo, salvo mode, artificial scatter, acquisition probability
