Abstract 

One of the main points of the Republic of Korea (ROK) military reformations is to reduce the number of personnel with the strengthened arsenal. However, the number of North Korean artillery forces far surpasses the ROK artillery forces, and the threat of mass destruction by these artillery remains in the Korean Peninsula. The aim of this study was to find the alternative field artillery operations and organization. This study presents a counterfire operation multi-agent model using LDEF formalism and its virtual experiments. The virtual experiments compared 1) the damage effectiveness between battalion and battery missions and 2) the effectiveness of command and control structures in the ROK and US artillery. Their results showed that splitting the units with strengthened guns and integrated C2 structure shows better performance in terms of damage effectiveness. We believe that this paper is basic research for the future ROK-US combined division, C2 network, and operations.
