Acceptance tests have been completed for the Ship Combat and Effectiveness Evaluation Model (GEMED) Project, which will strengthen the analysis, procurement, system and tactical development capabilities of the Turkish Naval Forces.
STM Defense Technologies Engineering and Trade Inc., which develops advanced technologies in the Turkish defense industry, continues to equip the Turkish Army with national and innovative systems in the field of software as well as platform construction. The acceptance tests of the Ship Combat and Effectiveness Evaluation (GEMED) Model Project, developed by STM and partner institutions within the scope of the TUBITAK SAVTAG 1007 program over a period of more than 5 years, have been successfully completed.
Operations Will Be Done First in Computer Environment, Then in the Field
STM General Manager Özgür Güleryüz pointed out that STM has significant experience in simulation and decision support solutions and said:
“On the one hand, we are empowering our Navy with modern and national platforms, and on the other hand, as STM, we are developing software that will add intelligence to our platforms and headquarters. With GEMED, which we developed as a simulation-based decision support solution, the combat effectiveness of our Naval Forces' combat platforms will be evaluated and will provide scientific decision support to our force in tactical development, design and procurement decisions. Within the scope of the GEMED Project, we developed models of nearly 100 combat elements and subsystems. Thanks to GEMED's platform, sensor, weapon and countermeasure models, effectiveness analyzes for surface, underwater and air operations can be carried out. Thus, the analysis of combat scenarios can be repeated many times in the simulation environment before the field. Thanks to GEMED, our Naval Forces will maximize its combat readiness level.”
More than 40 Tasks Have Been Tried in the GEMED Environment
Developed by STM engineers, GEMED is used for combat effectiveness evaluation, decision support for ship design/modernization/supply, and tactical development. More than 40 mission applications for sea, air and underwater operations were carried out in the created simulation environment. The user has the ability to assign different tasks to relevant platform models and create a task plan through conditional transitions between tasks.
In the scenarios created by the user, the user can perform multiple runs with experimental design under different environmental conditions for different platform system configurations, decision mechanisms and behaviors, and analyze the simulation results with multi-criteria decision-making techniques.
