The Proposed Action would create a mock railway that would enhance target, opposition force, and friendly force identification by aircrews who are training with ordnance deliveries. Impacts from constructing, operating, and maintaining the railway included minor increases in stormwater runoff and respective soil erosion, potential minor injury to cattle, and potential soil contamination by organic compounds from railroad ties. The wooden railway ties would be susceptible to burning by wildfires...

As joint war fighting doctrine has developed since the end of the Cold War and after September 11, 2001, as new weapons systems and platforms come on-line, and as joint context training has evolved, the Joint Pacific Alaska Range Complex (JPARC), under its current configuration, can no longer fully meet the training and testing requirements for forces stationed in, and exercises occurring in and near, Alaska. The purpose of the JPARC proposed actions is to modernize and enhance JPARC in Alaska...

In transportation systems today, there is a need to predict where a vehicle will be at a given time in order to ensure safety, expediency and efficiency of traffic movement. There is generally a plan of travel, but outside forces (e.g., wind forecasting error, navigation system error) cause the actual path that is followed to be somewhat different from the planned path. The path of a vehicle is represented as a vector-valued curve in three-space. The construction of the confidence region about...

At approximately 1300 on 5 February 1987, the Coast Guard-inspected small passenger vessel FISH-N-FOOL was struck on its starboard side by a large breaking swell near 'Ben's Rock', 2.6 miles south of Isla de San Martin, Mexico. The unexpected swell caused the vessel to broach and capsize. Of the three crew members and nine passengers on board, two survived, two drowned and the remaining eight are missing and presumed dead. One survivor managed to swim to Isla de San Martin and was rescued by...

This paper presents an algorithm for detection and resolution of air traffic conflicts in a 3- dimensional (3-D) airspace for two aircraft, namely ownship and intruder. A conflict is a projected incursion of the intruder aircraft within the protected zone of the ownship. A solution is a single maneuver, to be performed by the ownship, that effectively keeps the required minimum separation without cooperation of the intruder aircraft. The input to the algorithm is the state information, i.e.,...

The risk of fratricide is a constant problem in all military engagements, a problem that is exacerbated in coalition operations where military forces from many allied nations operate in close proximity. Despite considerable efforts to mitigate this risk friendly fire engagements between air and ground units resulted in 13 deaths during Operation Iraqi Freedom. These incidents resulted, in part, from poor situation awareness and failures in the air command and control process. The movement of...

The traditional concept of sovereignty, the power of states to regulate their internal affairs without foreign interference, has been evolving for centuries. Change has, at times, been extremely slow-at other times, rapid. As technology and economic development have exponentially increased in the twentieth century, so have strains on the traditional ideas of sovereignty. Prior to the advent of air power, the conceptualization of sovereignty was primarily land and sea based. This conception had...
