Problems of military aircraft crew’s safety in condition of enemy counteraction

Abstract

The presented paper consists outline of the probabilistic method of evaluation of military aircraft crew’s safety, which took into consideration enemy counteraction. The specific attention was focused on estimation of durability of ejection seat, which is a means of pilot’s emergency escape from aircraft. The basis of the presented model is probability of pilot’s danger to life for single sortie caused by enemy. Formulated differentiation equation characterises process of increment of successful sortie number. The equation after transformation into partial differential equation served for establishing of successful sortie distribution function and subsequently for calculation of crew safety indicators.
