ABSTRACT

This thesis develops a quantitative technique tc assist policy makers faced with difficult arms transfer questions. Multi-Attribute Utility Theory, augmented by the Constant Sum Method, offers greater potential for measuring military capabilities than current methods. An examination of Third World naval capabilities proves the combined technique workable and capable of incorporating expert judgments into a meaningful policy-making tool.

The thesis demonstrates that current techniques understate the potential threat from Third World navies. Naval capabilities are found to be concentrated in areas vital to Western interests. The analysis emphasizes the importance of technology and human/societal factors in the development of these capabilities. The major conclusion is that increased study into implications of rapidly expanding Third

World naval capabilities is required due to the direct potential threat to Western interests.

I. INTRODUCTION

"The qualitative transformations which have taken place in naval forces have also changed the approach to evaluating the relative might of navies and their combat groupings: we have had to cease comparing the number of of one type or another and their total dis- placement (or the number of guns in a salvo or the weight of this salvo) , and turn to a more complex, but also more correct appraisal of the striking and defensive power of snips, based on a mathematical analysis or their capaoilities and qualitative characteristics. M

Admiral Sergei G. Gorshkov Commander-in-Chief of the Soviet Navy "Navies in War and Peace" (Morshkoy Sbornik, No. 2, 1972)

Transfers of sophisticated weapons systems to Third

World nations have generated increasing concern within the

United States in recent years. One need only follow the public defcates over proposed sales of various weapons to note the level of interest. For example, within the past year there have been heated discussions centering around the proposed transfer of PERSHING surface-to-surface to

Israel, the sale of advanced fighters (F-14, F-15, F-16) to

Iran and Israel, the intent to deliver HAWK surface-to- surface missiles to Jordan and the Saudi Arabian request for

SIDEWINDER air-to-air missiles.

11

Interest in the growth of Third World naval capabilities has tended to lag behind anxiety created by transfers of air- and ground-related systems. However, world attention was directed to lesser developed nations* naval capabilities by several dramatic events which occurred during the

1967-1973 timeframe. Antiship missiles destroyed the OSS

Liberty and the Israeli "Eilat" in 1967. A

Pakistani EAPHNE SS sank the Indian destroyer "Khurkri" in

1970. The Israelis utilized surface-to-surface missiles (SSMs) and SAAH PTFGs to decimate Egyptian and

Syrian missile boat forces in October 1973.

These attacks brought the naval threat to public notice.

The implications for military planners and Western policymakers became clear— Third World antiship missile combatants and torpedo-firing present a threat to

ships of maritime powers. Since the threat is credible,

Third World recipients of these systems have the ability to influence the actions of world powers and to utilize naval

forces as foreign policy tools. Further, Third World

nations, acting singly or in concert, have the means to deny

limited ocean areas to Western navies. Some of these ocean

areas, such as the and the Straits of Malacca,

are vital to Western military and economic interests.

12

The following crisis scenario emphasizes the nature and extent of this threat. It is set in the approximate political circumstances of 1977 to present a plausible framework for focusing attention on the naval capabilities of the participants. The naval inventories upon which the scenario is based are real. The concerns of analysts tasked with evaluating Third World naval forces are also genuine.

A. SCENABIO

On 25 March 1980 invaded . Irag justified the invasion on the grounds of long-standing claims to border areas between the two nations. Western observers view the attack as an attempt to capture Kuwaiti oil reserves in light of the rapid depletion of Iraqi petroleum supplies. Kuwait's Western-equipped army blunted the

initial thrust, but the smaller Kuwaiti force will be

defeated without massive resupply from the West and/or outside military assistance.

Fears that an Iraqi victory might presage a similar

attack on Saudi oil-producing areas prompted to

order its military forces into Kuwait on 27 March. Both

13 countries immediately called on the United States for military resupply. As of 31 March, the United States has not responded. Aerial resupply of Kuwait is infeasible.

The United States is hesitant to commit merchant ships and/or its snail Indian Ocean naval force to the restricted waters of the Persian Gulf given the existing antiship missile threat. Alternative options, such as a naval resupply through Saudi Red Sea ports, probably would not permit delivery of urgently needed military equipment in time to prevent Kuwait's defeat.

The Saudi decision to assist Kuwait raised concern in

Iraq that the modern Saudi Navy might be able to secure the

Persian Gulf sea lanes and allow supplies to reach Kuwait by sea in time to affect the military outcome. Thus, on

28 March Iraq requested naval support from . The

Iranian Navy is recognized as the dominant naval force in the Persian Gulf. The Shan of Iran demanded that Iraq relinquish all claims to offshore oil-producing areas in dispute between the two nations in return for his support.

Two days later Iraq accepted his condition and the Shah instituted a naval blockade of the Persian Gulf. Little oil

has flowed from the Gulf since hostilities began on the

25th. Western shipowners felt that the risk of attack by

14

Iraqi OSA PTfGs was too high to allow tankers to enter the

Gulf. With the institution of the Iranian blackade all oil shipments frcm the area ceased. As a result, severe petroleum shortages are anticipated in Western Europe and

Japan.

Libyan President Qadhaafi saw the crisis as an opportunity to strike back at his moderate Arab foes. On

28 March he declared a "combat zone" extending 50 miles off the Egyptian coast and threatened t.o sink any shipping operating within this area. The action effectively blocked the Suez Canal and halted Saudi oil shipments to Europe from pipeline terminals on the Egyptian coast. The Libyan decision carried the tacit approval of the Soviet Onion,

Libya's major arms supplier.

On the following day a British tanker and a Japanese merchant ship were sunk by submarines off Alexandria, Egypt.

Later that same day, a U.S. merchant ship was attacked by an

unidentified submarine cff the Israeli coast. The

submarines involved are believed to be FOXTHOT SSs delivered to by the Soviet Union between 1977 and 1979.

However, some analysts suggest that the attacks could have been conducted by Soviet FOXTROTS which typically operate in

15 the Mediterranean. These observers emphasize the minimal risk attached to such action because of the inability to differentiate between a submerged Libyan FOXTROT and a

Soviet submarine of the same class. At the same time, the

Soviets cculd derive substantial gains from an emphatic show of support for their radical Arab clients.

On 29 March Egypt called upon Western naval powers to assist in breaking the Libyan blockade. No decision has been announced to date. The United States is reluctant to commit less than a major air and sea effort to the task given the 30-40 Libyan missile boats and unknown number of submarines believed to be operating in the area. On the afternoon of the 29th the Sixth Fleet was ordered to stand clear of the "combat zone" pending a decision on the

Egyptian request. This action, coupled with public statements ccncerning the possibility of a superpower confrontation, support the hypothesis that Soviet submarines

may be operating within the "combat zone" in concert with

Libyan forces. Several NATO ministerial meetings have been

held since the blockade was instituted. The other NATO

members are known to be pressuring the United States tc

break the blockade in view of the developing economic

repercussions of the oil cutback.

16

Israel labeled the attack on the U. S. merchant ship bound for Haifa an act of war and ordered its navy to

prosecute all submarine contacts within 50 miles of the

Israeli coast. On 30 March a SAAfi PTFG detected and

attacked a submarine outside the Haifa harbor. The Soviets claim that Israel attacked a Soviet submarine operating in

international waters. Western sources are unable to

substantiate the allegation. The USSR admonished the U.S.

to "...impress upon the client state of Israel the full

impact of its irresponsible action," and warned that

"...future unprovoked attacks will elicit appropriate

responses. .. with attendant threats to world peace."

As of 31. March, the Israeli order to actively prosecute

all submarine contacts remains in effect. The Soviet Union

is rapidly augmenting its Mediterranean force. The Libyan

blockade remains in effect, as do the Iranian naval patrols,

The ground war continues in Kuwait. The economic crisis in

Japan and Western Europe is worsening and the United States

is faced with the prospect of a superpower confrontation in

the eastern Mediterranean.

B. SCENA5I0'S IMPACT ON THE WEST

17

The scenario projects a crisis in 1980 based primarily on the ability of lesser developed nations to deny portions of the worlds oceans to Western ships. Concern over this type of scenario already exists and will probably expand as nations situated in vital geographic areas increase their naval capabilities. Western dependence on Persian Gulf oil production is a reality in 1977 and will probably remain of crucial importance in the 1980 period.

The forces central to the scenario are representative of the rapid build-up of sophisticated naval weapons systems in various geographic regions during the 1970' s. The naval forces of the seven nations discussed in the scenario are either on hand in 1977, or are projected to be in place

prior to 1980. The naval inventories of the participants are outlined briefly to illustrate the scope of the

build-up. l

1. Iraq has acquired ten OSA PTFGs from the Soviet

Union since 1973. further deliveries are probable.

2. Kuwait is aware of the possible threat to its

coastline and to its increasing tanker tonnage. 2 Surface-

18

* to-surface missile boats are expected to be added to its inventory in the near future. 3

3. Saudi Arabia has contracted for a major naval expansion program with the U.S. At least some of the ships will be missile-equipped and will be stationed at facilities to be constructed in the Persian Gulf.*

4. Iran possesses seven surface-to-surface missile- equipped combatants and has 16 additional units on order from various Western sources. The Shah has contracted for three U.S. diesel submarines. These units will serve as training vehicles for an expanded submarine force. 5 The

Iranian Navy has support ships, surveillance aircraft,

helicopters and hovercraft (some of which will mount SSMs)

which would be useful in a Persian Gulf blockade.

5. Libya owns three missile-equipped combatants and has

42 additional units on order from the USSR and Western

sources. Libya has also concluded an agreement with the

Soviet Union for up to six FOXTROT SSs. The first of these

diesel submarines was delivered in January 1977.

6. Egyptian naval inventories include 12 diesel

19 submarines and 16 missile-equipped combatants. Sgypt has begun construction of ships equivalent to the Soviet KCMAB

PIG. Negotiations are underway with British firms for the revitalizaticn of other existing Soviet-supplied missile combatants.

7. The mainstay of the Israeli Navy is its 18 SAAB

PTFGs, some cf which carry sonars. Six additional units are scheduled to be built in Israel. The Israeli Navy possesses two diesel submarines and three additional units have been ordered from the U.K.

The next chapter is devoted to an examination of Western concerns, the build-up of sophisticated naval combatants in the Third World, and the factors promoting the increase in the naval inventories of lesser developed nations. Chapter

III will discuss the limitations of current approaches to quantifying naval arms transfers and will suggest an alternative method (Multi-Attribute Utility Theory) which offers to overcome some of the deficiencies in evaluating naval weapons capabilities.

The following chapters attempt to apply Multi- Attribute

Utility Theory (M.A0T) to the arms transfer situation with

20 respect tc deliveries of antiship missile combatants and torpedo- firirg diesel submarines to Third World nations.

Chapter IV details the questionnaire construction process and discusses the procedure used in selecting questionnaire respondents. Chapter V develops the utility curves which form the basis for the technique and applies the curves to specific weapons systems encountered in Third World inventories. Chapter VI is concerned with procedures involved in developing factor scores relating to Third World

nations* capabilities to maintain and operate these sophisticated weapons systems. The final chapter presents conclusions and recommendations for future research.

21

II. SCOPE OF THE THREAT

This chapter describes the threat embodied in the acquisition cf antiship missile combatants and diesel submarines by Third World nations. The first section presents concerns as expressed by influential naval spokesmen and highlights the vulnerabilities of crude oil transportation to lesser developed nations' naval forces.

The second portion describes post-World War II trends in acquisitions of surface-to-surface missile (SS1A) combatants and modern diesel submarines. The final section of the chapter identifies major factors which have contributed to' the rapid increase in these weapon systems in Third World inventories and those influences which are likely to affect the trends in the foreseeable future.

A. INCREASEE STRATEGIC IMPLICATIONS

The development of lesser developed countries' navies is the subject cf growing concern among Western naval planners.

22

In the past the ability of the United States Navy to provide sea control has been discussed with respect to the interdiction capabilities of the Soviet Navy. However, the expanding inventories of modern naval units in the Third

World inject new urgency into the counsel of influential spokesmen whc warn that "...the age-old lessons of seapower must be put forward. Those who have the capacity to use these sea routes in safety will survive. Those who have the capacity to interrupt this international intercourse will remain, as always in the past, in a position to achieve their ends. 117

This somber warning is linked to a growing awareness that in addition to the Soviet threat to sea lanes, "Other coastal nations can temporarily threaten U.S. forces acting in support of the national strategy." 8 Or, as stated in the

Forward to Jane 1 s Fighting Ships 1 975 -76:

"...A small power possessed of with missiles now occupies a position where it can deny sea areas to the ships of far larger na vies. . .Difficult targets themselves, these craft are possessed of a power of destruction hitnerto unbelievable. No major naval power can believe itself invulnerable in the face of such a threat." 9

The authors succinctly define the apparent paradox in the

Persian Gulf scenario, namely the ability cf numerically

23 small naval forces to close vital ocean areas to ships of

major naval powers.

"...So we find a strange imbalance amongst the world's navies. The major nations may consider their power, their ability to deploy considerable forces to areas where they wish to exert pressure, as pre-eminent, but the number of localities where such a move could be unopposed is decreasing. The comparative cheapness and simplicity of the counter is making it available to many countries hitherto considered an non-starters in any naval race." 10

Beyond the direct threat to fighting ships, there is an acute awareness of the threat to Western economic interests

embodied in the naval expansion of Third World nations. The former Secretary of the Navy, J. William Middendorf II,

identified the degree of U.S. dependence on the seas when he

noted, "It is estimated that more than 70 percent of U.S.

trade is with nations other than the two contiguous states of Canada and Mexico. And more than 99 percent of our raw

materials and overseas foreign trade moves by sea." 11

The problems facing the West are more precisely defined

by Geoffrey Kemp.

"During the 1970's changes in the inter-national system are taking place which suggest that we would fce well advised to regain our "geographical sense" and appreciate seme of the very real constraints which geography new imposes. .. The Western industrial countries are becoming increasingly dependent upon the transhipment of scarce raw materials ... located in, and moving through, volatile conflict areas... Of special significance to the West is the area in the south

24

seas. . . Within this area, control of strategic choice points. .. must be assigned greater priority in our strategic thinking." 12

In discussing "the new strategic map" Kemp calls for a

southern hemisphere strategy and draws attention to four countries— Erazil, Iran, , and . All of

these nations are involved in expanding their missile combatant and/or diesel submarine inventories.

Watertorne movement of crude oil accounts for a major

portion of the ocean commerce of the U.S. and its allies.

The difficult task of protecting this traffic has been

compounded by recent developments alluded to in the Persian

Gulf scenario. These factors combine to greatly increase

oil tanker vulnerability.

1. There has been a trend toward increasing the size of

crude oil carriers. This in turn severely restricts the

routes these ships can use. The restrictions create an

inflexible system dependent upon narrowly defined sea lanes

and increase oil transportation vulnerability to

interdiction and disruption. The inflexibility makes the

tankers easy targets to find and negates any need for

sophisticated locating systems. Thus, the ships are

25 vulnerable to guerrilla attacks by naval units of relatively unsophisticated navies.

2. The sea lanes transit straits where interdiction of

tanker traffic is relatively easy. Figure 1 depicts major sea lanes and identifies choke points through which they pass. The fact that traffic is heavily concentrated in restricted areas, such as the Straits of Hormuz and the

Straits of Malacca, raises the credibility of a threat to attack oil tankers and increases the value of interdiction

platforms owned by nations located in the vicinity of the chcke points.

3. The extreme cost of modern supertankers makes a

credible threat to these ships sufficient to disrupt

shipping patterns. Private owners of these vessels are not

likely to risk their tremendous investments in the face of

threats such as the one outlined in the opening scenario.

4. The supertankers have become inviting targets for

nations uith small naval inventories. The increased size of

an average tanker raises the possibility that one well-aimed

torpedo directed at one target will have a far greater

effect than the anti-convoy operations of World War II. 13

This raises the cost effectiveness of a small submarine force operating in an interdiction role. It is not suggested that a lesser developed nation would be able to completely interdict a major sea lane with the submarine inventories currently on hand. However, sinking even one supertanker would have a tremendous impact on the entire oil transportation system and the' Western world in general.

Some analysts give navies of lesser developed nations the capacity to interdict vital lifelines and acknowledge that

diesel submarines "...could because of random dispersal... have a military value disproportionate to their apparent capability. l4

The Persian Gulf is the central geographic area in terms

of crude cil production and transportation. Countries

surrounding the Gulf accounted for 38.5 percent of world oil

reserves in 1974. is If Saudi reserves are added, the region

accounted fcr 58.1 percent of the known oil deposits.

Persian Gulf nations produced 23.3 percent of the crude oil

extracted in the same year. When Saudi production is added,

the area accounted for 38.4 percent of world production.

With the inclusion of vast natural gas deposits found in

this area, its importance to Western economic well-being

. becomes even more pronounced.

The effect that closing the Straits of Hormuz to tanker traffic wculd have on the economies of Europe and Japan is graphically displayed in Figure 2. Reports based on 1976 consumption indicate that the Straits of Hormuz offer a potential interdiction point for 90 percent of Japan's oil,

75 percent cf Europe's oil, 70 percent of Australia's cil and 30 percent of U.S. oil imports. 16 Movement of this vast quantity cf cil requires that a tanker transit the Straits every eight minutes, 24 hours a day, every day of the year. l 7

The vulnerability of this tremendous oil flow to interdiction is acknowledged. The level of concern is evidenced by the following excerpt from testimony given by the former Chief of Naval Operations, Admiral Elmo R.

Zumwalt, Jr., to the Senate Committee on Interior and

Insular Affairs in January 1973.

"...The route is a very long one, some 12,000 miles from Kuwait to New York and most of it passes through areas where U.S. forces have little operating experience and few bases. Mustering the military means to protect this long icute would strain our resources severely. "...The oil exported from the Gulf must pass through the Strait cf Hormuz. The Gulf itself is quite shallow and the Straits are generally narrow. This, plus the deep drafts of the supertankers, means maneuvering rcom for large tankers is quite restricted. .. Sinking just a handful cf tankers in critical passages could effectively block shipments from the Gulf for a long time... there is little the U.S. could now do militarily to forestall this possibility. .

30

"Another possibility is that the tanker shipments might fc€ attacked in the open ocean after they left the Gulf.... To bring any... naval capabilities to bear in the Persian Gulf area could require as much as a month. Our Mideast Force, normally comprising just two or three , would require augmentation to have significant combat capability." 18

B. INVENTORY INCREASES

The major capabilities of the navies of lesser developed

nations are embodied in surface-to-surface missile- equipped

surface combatants. 19 Various authors have noted that

"...the proliferations of the comparatively small fast

patrol craft armed with missiles must inevitably change the balance cf power in many important areas." 20 Firepower increases which accompany the acquisition of these units are evident in the statement that "...the improvement in missile capability new gives a single ship a capacity for

destruction only equalled in the past by great fleets and

squadrons of aircraft." 21 "Some observers have forecast

major changes in and in the world balance of

naval power as a result of the proliferation of

missile-armed patrol boats." 22

These combatants have demonstrated tneir capabilities.

The 1967 Israeli missile attack on the USS Liberty and the

31

. destruction cf the Israeli destroyer "Eilat" by Egyptian

S3-N-2/STSX missiles received much publicity. In the 1970

Indo-Pakistani War, Indian OSA PTFGs reportedly sank one

Pakistani destroyer and damaged a second with SS-N-2 missiles. 23 The 1973 October War saw the first encounters between antiship missile-equipped combatants. Israeli reports of naval victories over Syrian and Egyptian OSA

PTFGs and KCKAB PTGs received wide_ notoriety 2 * The result has been increased Third World interest in the ef f acti veness of the Israeli SAAR PTFG and the GABRIEL SSM in particular, and in the acquisition of surface-to-surface missile combatants ir general.

There are five basic types of antiship missile systems being built cutside the Soviet Union (,

OTCMAT — France/Italy, GABRIEL — Israel, SEA KILLER— Italy,

PENGUIN-^Norway) . All are available for export. The

Soviets produce a number of antiship missiles, but expert only the SS-N-2/STYX. 2S The U.S. SSM is nearing

operational status and reportedly will be exported. 26 In

addition, seme missiles have been converted for antiship use

(such as the French SS-12) or adapted to provide an antiship

mode (such as the U.S. STANDARD). Most of these systems

are small enough to be mounted on combatants currently

32 operated by lesser developed nations. In addition to retrofitting the systems on small combatants, a number of nations have ordered modern combatants designed specifically to mount these missile systems.

The recent dramatic increase in the number of antiship missile-equipped combatants in lesser developed nations' inventories began in 1961 with the transfer of two Soviet

KCMAfi PTGs to . 27 3y 1976, 342 surface-to-surface missile-equipped combatants had been delivered to lesser

developed 'nations. Fifteen units were deleted from various nations* inventories, primarily through combat losses, leaving the active Third World inventory at 327 units at the

end of 1976. The upward trend in deliveries and inventories

is displayed in Figure 3.

By 1980 at least 217 more antiship missile-equipped surface combatants will be incorporated into Third World inventories. This includes existing orders plus a

Program is not available, and by the fact that additional

Soviet deliveries are almost certain to occur during the period. Some missile units may be retired during the

1977-80 time period. Likely candidates for deletion would be older KCMAB PTGs in the inventories of some countries.

Even if retirements do occur, deletions will not approach the number of units being acquired during the same period.

Expanding deliveries have been accompanied by an increase in the number of nations possessing missile combatants. Ey the end of 1976, 30 countries owned this type of weapons platform. Four additional nations

(, , Saudi Arabia and South Africa) have units on order and will join this group prior to the end of the decade. The growth pattern is displayed in Figure 4.

The missile boat proliferation has been accompanied by an enlargement of the ocean areas within range of missile units. Figure 5 presents nations which possessed surf ace-tc-surf ace missile combatants as of 1970. Nations which currently have these units are depicted in Figure 6 along with nations scheduled to receive these missile ships prior to 1980.

The second group of naval combatants with recognized sea denial capabilities found in the Third World is diesel submarines. The loss of the Indian destroyer "Khurkri" to a

Pakistani DAEHNE SS in December 1970 highlights the high level of concern over the capability of lesser developed nations to effectively deploy these units.

Submarine acquisition by Third World nations has shown a less dramatic increase than missile combatant procurement.

Initial deliveries took place in the post-World War II period. Ey the end of 1976, 206 submarines had been

delivered tc Third World navies. Unlike the missile

combatants, a substantial number of units have been retired, so that the current Third World torpedo-firing diesel submarine inventory consists of 158 units. An additional 65

submarines are on order for delivery prior to 1980.

Included in this figure are projections that the PRC will continue its current production rate of six ROMEO SSs per

year and that the North Koreans will continue to produce two

units annually. As was the case with the missile

combatants, unannounced Soviet deliveries are possible.

Additional retirements are likely as BALAO SSs and

Soviet-supplied WHISKEYS reach the end of their usable

39 lives. 28 Th€ diesel submarine acquisition trends are shown in Figure 7. (Figure 7 is drawn to the same scale as Figure

3 to aid in osaking comparisons between missile combatant and submarine acquisitions.) However, it must be noted that submarine retirements have resulted in the acquisition of replacements characterized by longer operating ranges, greater submerged endurance, more complex electronics and

more sophisticated torpedo loads. 29 So, to some extent the modernization process has resulted in replacing coastal

submarines with units having improved open ocean capabilities and increased interdiction potential. 30

Seventeen nations currently possess diesel submarines and four nations (, , Iran and Libya) are

scheduled tc receive torpedo- firing submarines prior tc

1S80. Figure 8 shows the relatively steady increase in

numbers of diesel submarine recipients. As was the case

with nations possessing antiship missile-equipped

combatants, a number of nations possessing diesel submarines

are located in the vicinity of oil lane choke points.

Figure 9 displays the geographical locations of the 17

nations which have diesel submarines in their inventories.

44 combatants and torpedo-firing diesel submarines in Third

World naval inventories.

C. REASONS FCR GROWTH OF NAVAL CAPABILITIES

A number of factors have contributed to the growth of torpedo-firing diesel submarines and surface-to-surface missile-eguicped combatants in Third World inventories.

These factors are likely to remain operable for the near future. Thus, it is anticipated that the threat to Western economic and military assets will continue to expand.

The following factors are identified because of their influence on Third World weapons procurement. No attempt is

made to present an exhaustive listing.

1. Proven operational capabilities in the hands of Third

World navies. Egypt and India have demonstrated the effectiveness of a surface-to-surface missile fired at non-missile combatants. Israel has shown the effectiveness of the GAERIEI SSM against combatants mounting the Soviet

SS-N-2. This demonstrated capability has lead to a number of arms sales. Prior to the 1973 war, Israel had only

45 exported the GABRIEL to Singapore. 3i since 1973 the GA3EIEL reportedly has been introduced in , 32 Thailand, 33 and Taiwan. 34 GABRIELS were ordered by Argentina in 1974. 3 s

In 1974 South Africa decided to purchase the GABRIEL and the

RESHEF/SAAR IV PTFG, rather than purchase Portuguese and

French corvettes carrying the French EXOCET missile. 36

2. Requirement to replace aging World War II surface ships and submarines. A number of Third World nations have received World War II vintage ships and submarines from the

U.S. and West European sources. Rather than replacing these aging systems with conventional destroyers and , these nations have generally chosen to acquire smaller, missile-equipped combatants. Some nations, such as

Argentina, Brazil, and India, are replacing obsolete units with ships cf comparable size carrying surface-to-surface missiles. 37 The identical obsolescence problem is confronting nations which possess aging submarines. These nations have ordered modern submarines like the West German

TYPE 209 SS and TYPE 206/500 SS as replacements. The resulting submarine fleets have longer ranges, improved maintainability and a greater degree of sophistication.

3. Improved ab

46 are central to the overall arms transfer situation. They are also applicable to the expansion of sophisticated naval weapons systems in the Third World. Two examples f demonstrate the financial commitment being made on the part of some Third World nations. Iran is spending $338 Million on each of four U.S. DD-963's it has ordered 38 and intends to construct a $2 Billion naval base at Chah Bahar close to the Pakistani border. 39 Saudi Arabia will expend in excess of $1 Billion for ships, training and facilities associated

with the Saudi Naval Expansion Program now underway. 40 Most of the naval arms transfers represent sales, rather than grants or aid. Prices remain competitive because of active marketing by suppliers. Missile systems in particular are relatively inexpensive. 41 Most of these missile systems can be mounted on a variety of combatants already in Third World

inventories tc further reduce system costs.

On the other hand, diesel submarine purchases represent

major outlays. For example, recent estimates place the cost

of West German-built TYPE 206/500 submarines at $15 to $21

Million each. 42 Also, there is less competition between

suppliers, since only France, West and the U.K. are

producing new units for "export and only the U.S. and USSR

are involved in transfers of reconditioned units. Financial

47 considerations may largely account for the relatively small number of lesser developed submarine recipients.

4. Existence of offshore disputed areas. Resources located in offshore areas are increasing in value and are becoming more exploitable as a result of technological advances. For example, offshore oil deposits account for approximately 20 percent of world reserves. New drilling technologies allowing exploitation at greater depths are expected to raise this percentage significantly. 43 Oil- rich areas under dispute between nations with surface-to-

surface missile combatants and/or diesel submarines include:

the Spratley and Paracel Island areas (PRC, Vietnam,

Taiwan) , the Persian Gulf (Iran and Iraq) and the Aegean Sea

(Greece and Turkey). 44 These disputes generate requirements

for naval forces capable of protecting national claims to

the resources. Additional reguirements are probable as

exploitation and exploration techniques identify additional

resource-rich ocean areas.

5. Extension of national economic zones. Proposals to

extend national economic zones out to 200 miles have been

introduced at the Law of the Sea Conference. Failure of the

Conference to act upon these proposals has led to a series

48 of unilateral declarations of 200-mile economic zones.

Expanded economic zones would provide impetus for enlarging naval forces and extending naval operating ranges to permit patrols out to the 200-mile limit. Present Law of the Sea proposals will probably promote a trend established by early

proponents of enlarged territorial waters. In 1970

Argentina and Chile were early advocates of 200 mile fishing

zones. 45 Both have since acquired and/or ordered sophisticated submarines and missile combatants with

extended ranges. Seven nations (Argentina/ Brazil, Ecuador,

El Salvador, Panama, Peru and Uruguay) were early supporters of vastly increased territorial waters. Of this group, three (Argentina, Brazil and Peru) have received and/or

ordered destroyer-size missile ships with extended ranges.

Five (Argentina, Brazil, Ecuador, Peru, Uruguay) have

ordered and/or taken delivery of sophisticated submarines

(TYPE 209 and OBERON SSs) since that time. This preliminary

data suggests a correlation between support for extended

economic zones and a perceived need to upgrade the firepower

and operating ranges of naval forces. Further expansion of

the size, range and sophistication of Third World naval

combatants and a proliferation in the number of recipients

could follow the move toward the 200 mile norm.

49

III. QUANTIFYING SEA DENIAL CAPABILITY,

This chapter examines various methods for quantifying military worth of weapons systems in an attempt to describe the capabilities and limitations of each approach. The first portion of the chapter examines the numerical/ inventory approach used in Chapter II. The second section outlines seme alternative methods for dealing with the subject of capabilities analysis and describes one recent

approach to the problem of developing capabilities scores.

The final portion of the chapter discusses Multi-Attribute

Utility Theory and potential usage of this approach in

military capability measurement.

A. NUME2ICAI/INVENT0RY APPROACH

The numerical/inventory approach to quantifying arms

transfer issues is one of the more popular methods currently

in use. It effers many of the advantages of quantification

discussed in connection with measurement in the policy

50 sciences.* 6 The technique is useful in discussions of tae type presented in Chapter II where the purpose is to provide background information and to alert the reader to a threat.

Since the unit of measurement is the weapon system itself, the approach can provide an accurate accounting for the volume and direction of arms traffic.

The method is often over-used and incorrectly applied.

It is incapable of describing qualitative differences between varicus platforms within a class of weapon systems, since the unit of measure (in the present case either missile combatants or diasel submarines) does not embody any general attribute or characteristic upon which to base comparisons. 47 So, for example, under the inventory approach, a KCMAR PTG and an OSA PTFG would each count as one missile ship regardless of the fact that the OSA carries twice as many missiles as the K021AR. There is a qualitative characteristic (firepower) which clearly differentiates the

KCMAB from the OSA. However, the numerical approach cannot distinguish between the systems. Since the method cannot make this type of distinction, it is not an appropriate measure of military balance or military capability.

This limitation would appear to be obvious. Still, The

51

Militarx Balance series published by the International

Institute of Strategic Studies (IISS) advertises itself as,

"...a quantitative evaluation of military power " even

though it is based entirely upon a tabulation of force

levels. 43 Also, U.S. Government spokesmen regularly offer

inventory figures as a basis for arms transfer decisions in situations where considerations of military balances are of

prime concern. For example, during the mid-1976

Congressional hearings concerning Saudi Arabia's request for

SIDEWINDSfi air-to-air missiles, the U.S. Arms Control Agency

endorsed the proposed sale of 1500 SIDEWINDEBs with the

statement that, "...the risk of conflict between Saudi

Arabia and neighboring states is unlikely to be affected by

this number of missiles."* 9 No mention was made of Saudi

military requirements, nor was there a discussion of any

increase in ailitary capabilities which might accompany the

transfer cf 1500 missiles. Moreover, decision makers appear

to make policy choices based on numerical approach-generated

figures. In the SIDEWINDER case, Congress permitted the

sale of 1500 precision-guided missiles to Saudi Arabia.

"Under a compromise agreement worked out with key Senators,

the State Department and the Pentagon, the proposed sale was

fixed at 650 SIDEWINDE2 air-to-air missiles and 650 MAVEBICK

TV-guided missiles." 50

52

The demonstrated attachment to inventory counting may derive frcm the fact that it is relatively simple, unambiguous and easily accomplished by staff personnel.

There is little doubt that the information compiled in this manner is misused. If the policy maker has a background permitting him to comprehend the subtleties of the systems involved, inventory figures might be correctly applied.

However, there are few decision makers with this analytic knowledge.

There is a clear need for a measure of military worth which can be constructed by analysts and operators who possess an intimate acquaintance with the weapons being evaluated. The technique must be both reliable 51 and valid. 52 It must also offer meaningful information to the policy maker faced with the difficult issues attached to arms transfer decisions and considerations of military balance and regional stability. These stringent conditions

are not easily met.

3. ALTERNATIVES TO NUMERICAL/INVENTORY QUANTIFICATION

The hazards involved in applying the numerical/ in ventory

53

" approach to capability measurement have produced attempts to develop alternative quantification techniques. One method seeks to measure military capability by addressing the dominant system characteristic in order to avoid "...simple number calculations (which) necessarily overlook relative qualitative weapons system features. 5 3 Eldridge constructs an index to measure Third World sea denial capabilities by multiplying the number of platforms of a particular type times the number of missile launchers/torpedo tubes carried by that platform. 54 He aggregates these scores to determine the sea denial capabilities of a Third World navy's missile boat/diesel submarine forces.

Although the technique overcomes the major deficiency in the inventory approach by addressing a qualitative

difference (firepower) , it fails to describe the wide variety of factors which bear on successful accomplishment of an anti-shipping mission. For example, the Eldridge method would scale a BRAVE PTGL which carries eight SS-12 wire-guided missiles above a LA COMBAITANTE II PTFG mounting four EXOCEI SSMs. The fact that the SS-12 has a range of

3.5 Nil and that the EXOCET has a 22 NM range would never be considered. 55 All other missile characteristics which might similarly bear on mission success are ignored in the same

54

way. The approach completely ignores ship^ characteristics

which may make a major contribution to performing a given mission.

Other students of arms transfer issues have attempted to

avoid inventory-related approaches by utilizing a dollar-

value measure. (Both the Stockholm International Peace

Research Institute "SIPRI" and the Arms Control and

Disarmament Agency "ACDA" rely on this approach). The

method is based on cost, "...the basic assumption being that

an increase in cost (in real terms) buys an increase in

performance or capability. ,,S6 This approach is intuitively

appealing, but it has major flaws deriving from difficulties

in using monetary value as a precise indicator of

gualitative differences. Valuation problems, uncertainties

in pricing foreign arms transfers (especially those from

communist nations) , difficulties in dealing with grants

and/or special financing arrangements and problems in

pricing arms transferred out of surplus stocks all

contribute to the difficulties with the method.

Inherent difficulties with the popular quantitative

techniques discussed to this point prompted LT Alan LeGrow

to examine alternative approaches to measuring military

55

worth. In his thesis, Measuring Aircraft Cap ability for

Military and Political Analy sis, 57 LeGrow discusses possible

methods fcr quantifying capability and presents four scaling

techniques— factor analysis, paired comparisons, successive intervals and multi-attribute utility scaling. He examines

the theoretical basis for each and identifies individual

strengths and weaknesses. He then scales aerial combat

capability of fighter aircraft using each method in turn.

LeGrow concluded that factor analysis could be a valuable

tool for military capabilities analysis allowing

incorporation of computer processing into a research effort.

However, he noted that much faith has been placed in this

approach due to its applications in data analysis, without

the requisite attention being paid to the difficult

implimentaticn tasks which must accompany its use in

capabilities analysis. He found that judgmental scaling

techniques offer viable alternatives to the more structured

factor analytic approach. The successive intervals method

demonstrated greater sensitivity to the responses of expert

judges than paired comparisons. However, the successive

intervals method suffers from an inability to measure system

capabilities where one system is generally agreed to be

either superior or inferior to another given system. The

problems with these scaling techniques led LeGrow to

56 examine, and suggest farther analysis of, the capabilities of Multi-Attribute Utility Theory as an analytic tool.

A recent discussion of arms racing in the Middle East

highlights many of the difficulties involved in guantifying military capabilities which have been discussed in this chapter. 58 The author of the article attempts to develop

"...a comprehensive set of inventory, capability and

manpower data" 59 in order to construct military capability indices for Middle Eastern countries. Rattinger rejects the

capability indices which are based upon factor scores 60 in

favor of scores for major air, ground and naval systems

based on "...the simple product of speed, payload, and

comtat radius." 61 The author has difficulty applying

"payload" to ships, so "...all ships are therefore rank

ordered on a scale of 1 (for lowest) to 8 according xo main

armament, and the rank of each ship was treated as its

payload score." 62 Capability scores were then multiplied by

inventories and aggregated into national military capability

scores which form the basis for Rattinger' s study.

This December 1976 article is emphasized here for a

number of reasons. First, it demonstrates the growing

realization that measures of weapon system capabilities and

57 accurate inventory figures are both necessary to meaningful study of military balances. Second, the article is indicative of the unsophisticated nature of military capabilities measures currently being applied. Finally,

Eattinger invalidates his scale by elevating ordinal-level data 63 to interval-level 6 * and performs an operation requiring ratio- level data 65 by multiplying interval-level capability scores by inventory numbers. The failure tc differentiate between interval and ratio-level data is a continuing prcblem in arms transfer analysis. Many

researchers wish to measure country capabilities to make

comparisons between countries. This ultimately involves

multiplying system capability indexes by the numbers of

systems of the particular type contained in the nations*

inventories. Multiplication is not permitted with

interval-level data because of its arbitrary unit and

arbitrary origin characteristics. Clearly, an invalid score

based on simplistic criteria is not the answer to the

decision maker's complex problems.

C. MOLTI-ATTRIBOSE UTILITY APPROACH

It is often desirable to move from the side-by-side

58 comparison of weapons capability permitted by interval-level scaling techniques to a comparison of the military capability of one country with another. An effort is currently underway to develop a model to measure total

Soviet force effectiveness to improve "...the credibility of long-range forecasting for defense intelligence estimates and planning." 66 The Soviet Force Effectiveness Model calculates theoretical weapon effectiveness (THE) measures for over 200 weapons described in the Defense Intelligence

Projections for Planning (DIPP) . TWE takes into account measures cf weapon lethality, accuracy and survivability derived from a complex set of computer manipulations. The

TWE is then multiplied by force levels to generate theoretical force effectiveness (TFE) measures. "In addition to aggregating force levels and force characteristics. .. the model permits the user to aggregate the weapons by several missions." 67

The same types of calculations would aid in assessing the sea denial potential of the nations depicted in the opening scenario. For instance, it would be useful to compare the naval capabilities of Libya and Egypt to better evaluate Egypt's need for Western military support to break the Libyan blockade. Also, at times it is useful to know

59 the degree to which one weapon system's capabilities exceed another's. Again referring to the scenario, how much better is an Iranian LA COMBATTANTE II PTFG than a Saudi missile combatant? In this light, what are the Saudi Navy's capabilities to open Persian Gulf resupply lines?

These calculations require ratio-level measurement of weapons' capabilities. While both the dollar-value and inventory approaches provide ratio measures, they are inapplicable for the reasons already discussed. The factor analytic, paired comparison and successive interval methods all provide interval-level measurement. Thus, there is a definite need for multi-attribute utility's (MAUT) ability to produce a ratio-level measure of weapons capabilities.

It does so by using utility curves which have a natural origin as building blocks for developing system capability scores.

A second important feature of MAUT is its ability to base analysis on multi-faceted definitions of capability.

It offers to avoid simplifications required by the numerical/inventory approach, the Eldridge method of measuring firepower, aud Rattinger's measure based on payload, speed and combat radius. MAUT permits analysis of

60

" a wide range cf factors which, when combined, would allow a more sophisticated treatment of complex weapon systems' military worth.

Before addressing MAUT in some detail, it is necessary to carefully delineate where the present study should be located on Bode's "Dialectical Hierarchy of Interactions. 68

MAUT fits into the category which Bode terms "ex-ante"" assessments. 69 These ex-ante, or static, measures

"...assess starting conditions only, and relate to what could happen, not what does happen in the real world..." 70

Bode notes that "...strong incentives remain for developing static indices that are sufficiently general to serve as rules of thumb for comparing forces," 71 and feels that such indices are "...very useful supplements to the intuition of the decision maker and analyst when structuring problems, identifying alternatives for detailed consideration, and checking obscure analysis." 72 MAUT is part of "...efforts

to develop Military Effectiveness Indices (MEI) that are suitable for direct calculation of relative military

effectiveness without recourse to more complex war gaming." 73 Thus, it seeks to evaluate operational and

engineering factors which determine weapon capabilities,

without explicitly considering an "enemy" and the two-sided

61 combat situations required for dynamic modeling. As a result, MAOT cannot, and does not seek to, predict outcomes of engagenents between specific types of naval combatants nor battle outcomes between various nations' naval forces.

1 . Theory

Otility or value theory is designed to facilitate decision-making. It assumes that a decision maker will act to maximize utility within his set of goals and constraints.

Otility theory requires that all possible decision outcomes be quantified, that the utility of each be defined and that the decision be based on maximizing utility. Otility curves, which assign a real value to each possible outcome, are central to the process.

Two important points must be emphasized with respect to the derivation of these curves.

a. Ihe utility function depends on the subjective

judgment of the decision maker and on his perception of the environment and the decision objectives.

62

b. The utility function, once defined, acts as an evaluative scale by which all possible outcomes can be measured.

2. i££li£ation

Utility theory was developed and exhibited its earliest applications in the social sciences. The applicability of the theory is now being examined in a broader range of decision-making contexts. BAND Corporation has applied utility theory in an interactive computer program to aid a tactical commander in maximizing the utility of his forces in simulated strikes on Warsaw Pact airbases. 74 Utility functions have also been considered in the context cf the treaty negotiation process. 75 This application seeks to develop utility curves to represent the importance attached to each issue by each side and to define a set of possible treaty outcomes which would allow a mediator to guickly evaluate potential treaties and assist in developing the treaty which is "best" for both sides.

A model for employing MAUT is suggested in the process utilized by design engineers to optimize system

63 design and maximize system worth. "While the purpose cf

the. . .analysis is finding an optimal system to fulfill an objective, the solutions obtained can also be used to evaluate or scale existing systems. In other words, the optimal solution can be considered as an ideal model against which all other systems can be judged." 76

The LeGrow thesis applies MAUT to fighter aircraft and demonstrates a degree of subtlety which is impossible with the ether techniques considered. For example, he uses experts to develop utility scores for the MIG-21 and the

F-4E. The scores show the MIG-21 to be the superior fighter platform. He then applies values from curves developed by experts for pilot proficiency and country technological capability. When combined with the platform utility scores, the Israeli F-4E for example, demonstrates a higher utility than an Egyptian MIG-21. None of the other techniques have the ability to consider such a broad range of characteristics, nor to consider personnel factors which are crucial to system performance.

If the user accepts the assumptions needed for

ratio-level measurement, 77 utility scores for a nation's inventory can be developed by multiplying numbers of

64 platforms by their respective utility scores and summing.

Thus, for example, it would be possible to scale the utility v of Saudi Arabia's and Iran's missile boat forces in a sea denial scenario.

Arms transfer calculations are also possible with

MAUL For example, it would be useful for a decision maker to be aware cf the utility of Saudi missile boats compared to the utility of the Iraqi OSA PTFGs if he were faced with a request frcm the Saudis for additional units. If the policy maker desired parity between the forces' capabilities, MAUT could identify the approximate number of boats required by the Saudis to achieve a balance. The theory could also suggest a rule-of-thumb for future arms transfer decisions as Iraq receives additional units from

the USSR. Thus, MAUT calculations might provide a

meaningful determination of military balance.

The LeGrow examination of MAUT was done at the

theoretical level. He demonstrated the technique's

potential based on the inputs of two judges and suggested

further study of judgmental scaling in general, and of MAUT

in particular. The remainder of this thesis attempts to

apply MAUT to the missile boat/diesel submarine problem set

65 forth in Chapters I and II. The goal is to expand and evaluate this promising approach through practical application to a current problem of naval interest.

66

IV. QUESTIONNAIRE PREPARATION

Ward Edwards, Marcia Guttentag and Kurt Snapper present a concise study of the role of evaluative research in the decision-making process in their article, "A Decisicn-

Theoretical Approach to Evaluation Research." 7Q The authors assume that a decision maker is normally amenable to considering evidence which bears on his decision options and that he rarely delegates his decision-making function to a researcher. This requires that researchers develop techniques presenting concise, meaningful analysis which considers the multi-dimensional nature of most real-world decisions. Due to this multi-dimensional aspect, the authors reject a number of possible research techniques in favor of itulti-attribute utility measurement. The article extends previous work done with MAUT and presents a practical application which "...is oriented toward easy communication and use in environments in which time is short and decision makers are numerous and busy. Further, it is a method that is psychologically meaningful to decision makers, who are required to give judgments that are

67 intuitively reasonable." 79

In the course of the article, the authors develop a blue-print for application of HAUT. Their outline is applied to an examination of the Department of Health,

Education and Welfare»s Office of Child Development.

Circumstances surrounding their evaluation closely parallel many aspects of the study of proliferating Third World sea denial capabilities. In both cases decision makers within the executive and legislative branches are numerous and are under extreme time pressures. Both problems are multi- dimensional and are not adequately dealt with by existing measurement systems. Their outline has been used as a framework for this and the following chapter.

Figure 10 presents a block diagram adapted from the

Edwards et al. article which describes the flow of the current study. In the diagram rectangles enclose operations conducted in the course of the study and circles contain informational inputs and outputs from operations. Each of the operations and informational inputs/outputs will be described in detail with the aid of a ten-step procedure also adapted from the Edwards article.

. the study and will be presented in this chapter. The remaining five steps concern aggregating information and applying aggregated judgments to existing naval systems.

The final five steps are the subject of Chapter V.

A. STEP 1 — IDENTIFY ISSUE (S) FOR STUDY

The sea denial capability of Third World nations is the issue being studied. Concerns generated by recent Third

World naval expansion programs were presented in Chapters I and II. Nc further discussion of trends among lesser developed nations is required. However, the importance of this type of examination cannot be overstated. It is essential that the researcher develop a thorough appreciation cf the central issue and its ramifications.

Without this sclid foundation it is impossible to conduct a meaningful investigation of the type of complex real-world issues presented in an evaluation of sea denial capabilities

B. STEP 2— IDENTIFY ENTITIES TO BE EVALUATED

70

There was general agreement among naval spokesmen that anti-ship missile surface combatant and torpedo-firing diesel submarine acquisitions by Third World nations represent the greatest sea denial threat. Because these two naval weapons systems provide the basis for Third World sea denial capabilities, they are the entities which will be evaluated in this study. Again, adequate discussion of the expert's concerns was contained in the preceding chapters.

No elaboration is required, except to note that once again the researcher must be well acquainted with the issue involved in order to identify the central entities.

C. STEP 3 — IEENTIPY PARTICIPANTS

Multi-Attribute Utility Theory depends upon subjective judgments of experts to develop utility curves. The dominant consideration is that the participants possess expertise which will allow them to make the required judgments. The theory is not dependent upon large sample sizes.

Quantifying the military worth of anti-ship missile combatants and diesel submarines required the involvement of

71 two distinct groups of experts. Since judges with the required expertise were not available at the Naval

Postgraduate School, opinions had to be elicited through questionnaires. Judges for the anti-ship missile sea denial questionnaire were drawn from the relatively small number of persons within the O.S. Navy with experience in anti-ship missile combatants, personnel involved in the HARPOON SSM development program, and analysts dealing with the anti-ship missile threat.

The anti-ship missile combatant questionnaire was

eventually distributed to 1 8 individuals. Six of the persons had operational experience with anti-ship missiles and/or surface-to-surface missile combatants. Six were involved in U.S. Navy SSM development programs in a variety of capacities. Six recipients were analysts who evaluate the anti-ship missile threat to the U.S. Navy.

The diesel submarine questionnaire was eventually distributed to fourteen persons. Three are officers currently assigned to O.S. diesel submarines. The remaining eleven officers have served aboard U.S. diasel submarines

within the last two years.

12

The limited number of available experts placed special pressures on the questionnaire construction process involved in Step 5. Additional persons at the Naval Postgraduate

School were utilized in Steps 4 and 5 in order to ensure that the questionnaires which were developed were effective instruments for measuring the relevant dimensions of the issue. Their participation will be outlined in the remaining portions of this chapter.

D. STEP 4 — IDENTIFY RELEVANT DIMENSIONS

The relevant dimensions are weapon system performance characteristics which determine sea denial potential of systems under study. Had expertise been more readily available, a group of judges might have been gathered to develop the utility curves, or alternatively, to assist in questionnaire construction. The lack of accessible expertise forced the researcher to examine available information concerning SSM-eguipped combatants and diesel submarines and to develop a list of performance characteristics normally associated with the systems under study. The lists were discussed with knowledgeable

individuals available at the Naval Postgraduate School. The

73 anti-ship missile combatant characteristics were presented tc two officers who had commanded ASHVILLE PGs and two officers with knowledge of naval missiles. Two officers with attack submarine backgrounds were consulted concerning the submarine characteristics. The conversations lead to a number of deletions and additions of criteria deemed important tc a comprehensive study of the military worth of these systems.

One example was the attempt to determine the best measure tc describe a surface combatant's seakeeping qualities. Seakeeping is difficult to quantify, but it is very important in evaluating the open-ocean capabilities of the relatively small platforms which are common in Third

World navies. The preliminary list contained a number of measures regarding ship size—length, beam, draft and height of superstructure. All of these measures bear on seakeeping. However, the former ASHVILLE PG commanders maintained that standard platform displacement presented the best measure of platform seakeeping. This was a particularly attractive measure from the researcher's viewpoint, because it is easily quantified and aggregates a number of physical characteristics into one measure.

Aggregated measures were particularly important to

74 developing a concise questionnaire which would promote a high response rate from the judges. The consultations developed a set of matrices which paired relevant dimensions with measurable performance criteria. Table II presents the

matrix which resulted from the anti-ship missile combatant discussions.

Two important tendencies became evident during the

series of discussions. The first was a desire to tie general performance characteristics to specific weapons systems. While this proclivity demonstrated the individual's previous experiences, it held the potential for eliciting prejudgments that could affect questionnaire responses. There was a demonstrated penchant to focus on

the threat from Soviet-built systems, while disregarding systems exported by Western European nations with which the

individuals were less familiar. Weapon performance criteria

were not associated with specific weapon systems in the

questionnaire to avoid this inclination to heavily weight

Soviet systems.

The second tendency was to tie discussions of

performance criteria to specific scenarios. Much of the

consultation time concerned probable Third World employment of the weapon systems. The scenario-dependent nature of

these discussions required that the questionnaire outline

scenarios consistent with demonstrated Third World navy

capabilities which would aid the respondent in making

76 meaningful judgments,

E. STEP 5— SOLICIT EXPERT OPINIONS 7IA QUESTIONNAIRE

The process of developing questionnaires which would be valid measures of military worth began with constructing relevant scenarios. Two separate scenarios were developed for each questionnaire. The first missile boat scenario outlined guerrilla attacks against either merchant ships or non-missile surface combatants. It described the threat which concerned various spokesmen in Chapter II and was in keeping with the surprise attacks against the CTSS Liberty and the Israeli "Eilat" in 1967. This scenario required the missile teat to transit to normal sea lanes or ocean operatng areas for the attack. Past patterns suggested that the attacker would make maximum use of surprise by conducting a high speed attack, possibly at night. The scenario assumed that air cover was not available for either early warning or target localization/identification.

The second anti-ship missile scenario addressed a war-at-sea situation in line with naval engagements which took place in October 1973. As was previously discussed,

77

NAOT is not a combat modeling tool. However, it was useful to consider the capabilities of various platforms in a one-on-one situation in an effort to quantify the typical naval balance considerations. Again, the scenario assumed that neither side had air support and that the engagements tested the open ocean capabilities of the units involved.

Equivalent scenarios were developed for diesel submarines. The first involved guerrilla attacks of the type attributed to Libya in the opening chapter. The scenario assumed a submarine transit to normal sea lanes and an attack in a situation most favorable to the submarine.

No airborne ASW support was available.

The second submarine scenario was set in a war-at-sea situation. There was general agreement among the operators that the targets for the submarines would probably be enemy surface ships along the lines of Pakistani attacks in 1970, rather than enemy submarines. This is reasonable, given the complexities of submarine ASW, and the fact that few potential Third World conflicts involve two nations which both possess diesel submarines. In keeping with the

Indo-Pakistani example, the scenario assumed that the surface unit was alert to the possibility of attack but

78 lacked airborne ASW support.

Other possible concerns entered into formulations cf the questionnaire instructions. The basic concepts of utility theory and utility curves probably are new concepts for many judges. It was necessary to briefly describe the concepts.

A curve was borrowed from the LeGrow study and was presented as an example accompanied by a brief interpretation.

Discussions with various classmates demonstrated that the use of this example was an effective and concise method for acquainting the respondent with the concept of utility curves.

The interpretation which accompanied the curve defined the zero point as a "natural" origin--a necessary assumption for developing a ratio scale from MAUT. 80 The interpretation made it clear that a zero point was demanded of the judge and that a score of zero for a particular characteristic represented the absolute minimum value for that attribute which would allow successful accomplishment of the mission outlined in the scenario. "If the analyst is willing to generalize the validity of this point it can be considered a 'natural* origin and lead to ratio measurement." 81 This interpretation of the zero point was

79 emphasized in a number of contexts in each questionnaire.

Similar emphasis was placed on the upper limit of the utility curve. In theory the maximum utility value is one.

However, most individuals consulted in the preliminary studies were more comfortable using whole numbers and a maximum cf ten than they were using one as the upper limit.

As a result, the scales in the questionnaires extended from a minimum of one to a maximum of ten. Since ratio measurement is being assumed, this enlargement is permissible. Ten was emphasized throughout the questionnaire as the value for an attribute which the judge considered technologically feasible/desirable. 82

Tests of .various questionnaire formats indicated that the precision of the curves and the accuracy of the judge's sketch could be improved by asking for his minimum and maximum utility points prior to asking him to sketch the curve for each attribute. This format was utilized in the final version of each questionnaire. This effort to promote accuracy had definite benefits when the results were

aggregated (see Chapter V) .

Finally, special efforts were taken to emphasize that

80 each judge was chosen because of his expertise and that the questionnaire sought subjective judgments based on that experience. It also was noted that each attribute should be considered to be independent of all others. The judge was directed to emit those characteristics which he did not feel qualified to evaluate.

The final step in the preparation process was to submit copies of the proposed questionnaire to three qualified judges at the Naval Postgraduate School who had not been consulted about the project previously. Two were given the questionnaire contained in Appendix B and one received the diesel submarine questionnaire in Appendix C. In each case the judge had no difficulty understanding what was expected of him. All aspects of the instructions were followed completely. The judges were in agreement that the questionnaires were extremely challenging and called for the judge to weigh very difficult trade-offs throughout. Each judge noted that it took 45 minutes to one hour to complete the questionnaire--a fact which seemed to threaten the desired high response rate. Because an all-inclusive measure of system military worth was more important to the research than a wide sample of judge's opinion, the questionnaires contained in Appendix B and C were submitted

81 to the prospective respondents without modification

V. DEVELOPING SEA DENIAL CAPABILITY SCORES

This chapter presents the final five steps in the process of developing utility scores representing the sea denial capabilities of the antiship missile combatants and diesel submarines which have been transferred to Third World nations. It begins with the process involved in measuring the dimensions under study and traces the steps utilized to acguire platform capability scores. The final step in the chapter is the presentation of these utility scores to the decision maker.

A. STEP 6 — MEAS0BE DIMENSIONS

The individual performance characteristics of antiship missile ccmbatants and torpedo^f iring diesel submarines found in Third World inventories constitute the dimensions to be evaluated. Measurement of these dimensions was involved in varying degrees at three points in the guantif ication of weapon system's military worth. A

83 preliminary examination was required in the questionnaire preparation phase outlined in Step 4. That investigation sought to identify dimensions which presented meaningful measures of system performance. The second inquiry formed part of Step 5. In Step 5 the investigation was aimed at developing an appreciation of the range among weapons with respect tc particular dimensions in order to provide a realistic scale for the horizontal axis for each curve required cf the judges in the questionnaires.

The in-depth examination of performance characteristics

involved in Step 6 was a time-consuming process. However, the period cf time between mailing and subsequent receipt of

the questionnaires was sufficient to accomplish this

analysis. Specific performance and inventory information

was collected from various unclassified publications.

Prominent sources were Aviation Week and Space Technology,

«2§2£is *sa£ons Systems, Jane' s Fighting Ships, Fli ght

International, SIPBI publications and The World Military

Balance.

Unexpected delays were encountered in two areas during

the measurement process. In developing antiship missile

platform inventory numbers the researcher encountered

84 difficulties in deciphering names of missile combatants found in various Third World nations' inventories. An example of the difficulties encountered is the fact that the

Iranian SAAM-class is in reality the VOSPEH MK-5, the

Malaysian PERKASA FPB is produced as the BRAVE PTGL as is the Libyan SOOSA FPB. (These nomenclature difficulties are minimized in Appendix A by presenting the manufacturer's designations, rather than class names assigned by recipient nations tc various types of antiship combatants.)

The second source of time delay was the extensive mix of weapons systems and combatant platforms; the individualized nature of supporting systems such as ECM/DECM and anti-missile defensive systems; and the wide variation in types of torpedoes capable of being fired by each class of submarine. To illustrate the individualized nature of various platforms, consider the fact that the LA C0M3ATTANTS

II PTFG normally carries four EXOCET SSMs, but that the

Malaysian version of the LA COMBATTANTE II carries two

EXOCETs, Singapore's version mounts five GABSIEL SSMs, while

Iran has ordered LA C0M3ATTANTE II PTFGs without missiles and may intend to mount HARPOON SSMs on these units. 83 This degree of diversity required that each be treated as a separate system, since diveristy in armament portends

85 possible differences in sea denial potential. This diversity greatly increased the effort devoted to the measurement phase of the research.

Measurement is also complicated by the fact that MAUT requires precise and complete information. Information about performance characteristics forms the basis for the valuation of military worth and must be complete to allow side-by-side comparisons of the military worth of various weapon systems. MAUT does not accomodate missing data. The absence of data for a particular dimension of one system reguires that that characteristic be deleted for all systems in order to make side-by-side comparisons.

One deletion became necessary in the study of the military worth of antiship missile combatants. The preliminary research done in Steps 4 and 5 indicated that the necessary performance information was available to allow inclusion of "Maximum Radar Acquisition Range" in the questionnaire contained in Appendix B. The detailed examination done in Step 6 revealed that range information per se was net available for a number of mounted on

Third World antiship missile combatants. Instead, radar information is often presented in the form of technical

86 characteristics such as pulse repetition rate, frequency, power, etc. The reason that the technical characteristics, rather than range information, are given may arise from the fact that radar ranges are extremely sensitive to atmospheric conditions. Factors, such as the ducting phenomenon fcund over-water in warm climates, can greatly alter radar acquisition ranges. The fact that this characteristic is variable and subject to conditions unrelated tc performance characteristics of a particular radar required that this dimension be deleted subsequent to mailing the questionnaires to the judges.

B. STEP 7 — AGGHEGATE UTILITY CUHVES

Literature concerning multi-attribute utility analysis deals at length with problems involved in aggregating individual utilities into group utility functions. The discussion centers around theoretical constraints upon the manner in which individual utility curves can be combined. 84

Attention has also been devoted to the practical difficulties involved in aggregating utilities in a real-world decision-making situation. 85

87

Edwards €t al. reviewed the literature and concluded that averaging presented an acceptable method for resolving disagreement among judges. 86 There are two tasic ways to average the curves received in the judges* questionnaire responses. Each will be discussed in turn. The curves for

"Range at Maximum Sustained Speed" (Scenario #1) taken from

Appendix D will serve as the basis for discussion in Steps

7, 8 and 9. These curves are reproduced in Pigure 11.

One approach is to combine the individual curves into one agreed-upon utility curve for each dimension involved in the analysis. This might be accomplished through a Delphi instrument or might be accomplished by mathematically combining the individual curves provided by the judges.

There are a number of problems with the Delphi technique which go fceycnd the scope of the present study.

Disadvantages also accompany the mathematical combination approach.

The mathematical solution requires relatively involved

manipulations which counter the goal of developing an application cf MAUT which is easily explained to a decision

maker. Presenting a single curve for each dimension also

may be misleading to the extent that it conveys the

89 impression that the judges reached a consensus when, in fact, a wide divergence of opinion with respect to a given dimension might exist. So, for example, the curve presented in Figure 12 for the dimension "Range at Maximum Sustained

Speed" is much more visually appealing than the ten curves presented in Figure 11, but it does not display the degree of agreement/disagreement which existed among the judges.

The mathematical complexities and the possible misrepresentation of consensus led to the adoption of a second method for aggregating utility values.

The second approach involves using the judges* utility curves directly to average the values for each dimension.

So, for example, to determine the average utility value for a platform with a 1250 NM range at maximum sustained speed it would be necessary to take ten individual readings as shown in Figure 13. The values of the readings are summed

(total value of 37 for this example) and this utility value is divided by the number of judges (10 in this case) to derive the average utility for this dimension for a platform

with a 1250 NM range (8.7 in this example.)

The disadvantage inherent in this approach is obvious.

Much more computational time is reguired than would have

92 been the case if a combined curve had been used allowing the utility value to be read directly off the vertical axis.

However, three advantages appear to out-weigh this drawback.

First, the mathematics are easily understood and easily demonstrated. Second, the method avoids much of the theoretical discussion about the proper manner for developing group utility functions by going directly to the curves provided by the individual judges. Third, the method presents a visual representation of the variance in the judges' opinion. This advantage is very important because simple mathematical measures of variance and standard deviation ar€ not applicable. A normal distribution has not been assumed. Moreover, the degree of variance depends upon the particular value for a dimension being studied. In the case of the dimension "Range at Maximum Sustained Speed" a visual inspection reveals that the variance in judges' opinions at the 1250 NM point is much less than the wide ranging judgments found at the 750 NM value. A visual representation cf the degree of agreement/disagreement is

vital to an unbiased presentation of the data in the absence

of standard mathematical representations of variance. The

decision maker should also be appraised of the fact that the

degree of agreement/ disagreement may vary among dimensions.

A comparison cf the curves presented in Figure 13, for

93 example, reveals far greater agreement than the curves for

"Maximum Missile Range" (Scenario #2) shown in Figure 14.

Judges 1 curves for each dimension addressed in the antiship missile combatant questionnaire are contained in

Appendix D. The curves for the dimensions included in the torpedo- firing diesel submarine questionnaire are displayed in Appendix E. Responses for the non-continuous variables presented in the respective questionnaires are also contained in the appropriate appendixes in tabular form.

Twelve responses were received for the antiship missile combatant questionnaire (66 percent response rate) and six were received for the diesel submarine questionnaire (50

percent response rate) . The fact that some judges did not evaluate various dimensions accounts for the variation in total numbers of responses among individual performance characteristics.

C. STEP 8 — AGGREGATE IMPORTANCE WEIGHTINGS

Literature concerning applications for utility analysis devotes much space to the problem of properly weighting judgments. Kirkwood states that "...any practical

95 methodology should allow for an open display of the weight being given to different people's preferences." 87 Edwards

et al . address the problem of properly weighting their dimensions. 88 The concern in their study was that judgments might be overstated/understated unless the judges assigned weightings tc the dimensions to reflect the importance attached to each dimension. LeGrow expressed the same concern and asked the judges to provide weightings for aircraft performance characteristics along with the utility curves. 89 The weightings in the LeGrow study showed that some performance characteristics were more important to fighter aircraft capability than others. 90 The same situation was highly probable in an application of MAUT to sea denial capability.

In the sea denial study each judge was asked to weight each performance characteristic which he evaluated in the questionnaire. The individual weightings were averaged to develop overall weightings for each attribute. Table III presents the resultant average weightings for each of the performance characteristics contained in the antiship missile combatant questionnaire contained in Appendix E.

Appendix C. Once again some of the experts did not judge certain dimensions. This accounts for the divergence in numbers of responses.

The average weightings for the various dimensions are used to develop weighted utility scores. For the platform with the 1250 NM range the average utility score developed in Step 7 (8.7) is multiplied by the average weighting found under Scenario #1 in Table III. The resultant weighted attribute score for "Range at Maximum Sustained Speed" for this particular platform would be 50.

D. STEP 9 — CALCULATE WEAPON SYSTEM UTILITIES

The result of the procedures contained in Step 7 and

Step 8 is a series of weighted utility scores for dimensions of sea denial weapons systems. The purpose of Step 9 is to combine these weighted utilities to develop platform utility scores for antiship missile combatants and torpedo-firing

diesel surmarines.

The process to be followed in combining these weighted utility scores is determined by the presence or absence of

101 three properties within the utility functions. These three properties; utility independence, pairwise preferential

independence, and pairwise marginality , are presented in some detail in the LeGrow thesis. 91 The presence or atsence of these properties determines whether an additive or multiplicative combinatorial relationship exists. If the requirements for addition or multiplication are not present, or are not decipherable, most sources recommend the additive form as the best "...since it is generally a good approximation of the multi-attribute utility function." 92

The diesel submarine and the missile combatant questionnaires explicitly noted interrelationships which exist between various performance characteristics the judge was asked to evaluate. The experts were involved in making difficult trade-offs throughout the evaluation process.

Intertwining characteristics involved in these complex systems made the requirements for addition or multiplication indiscernable. Thus, the recommended additive form was adopted. Total utility scores for a particular weapon system were derived by summing the weighted utility scores

derived in Steps 7 and 8.

Total utility scores for the antiship missile combatants

102 were greatly influenced by the performance characteristics of the missile systems mounted on these combatants. Seven of the thirteen dimensions ("Maximum Effective Range of the

Missile", "Missile Speed", "Warhead Size", "Missile Hit

Probability", "Missile Guidance Systems", "Home-on- Jam

Capability" and "Euzing Configuration") directly evaluate the performance of the missile. An eighth factor ("Number of Missile Tubes") is indirectly tied to missile characteristics such as size and weight. The MAUT technique permits a sid€-by-side comparison of system components such as the surface-to-surface missiles which have been transferred to various Third World recipients. The total utility scores were computed for the antiship missiles and are presented in Table V.

Scores presented in Table V were derived by summing the weighted utility scores for the seven dimensions cited in the previous paragraph. The scores represent the maximum sea denial potential for each system. In each case the maximum range of the missile was used to calculate the system scores. The two systems with over-the-horizon capabilities were scored on the basis of their maximum effective ranges (37.5 NM for the 0T0MAT 93 and in excess of

94 50 NM for the HARPOON ) . The ducting phenomenon which can extend radar acquisition ranges over warm ocean areas and the concentration of Third World recipients in these areas makes over-the-horizon targeting possible in many situations. Range considerations had the opposite effect on the scores for the relatively short range (14 NM) GABRIEL

SSM. 95 While the scores for the GABRIEL might appear to underestimate the military worth of this system, they are consistent with the evaluations of Israeli weapons designers

who are involved in design and testing of the GABRIEL II SSM which has an expanded range (26 NM) 96 with improved guidance and higher speed. 97

104

The missile system scores constitute part of antiship combatant scores displayed in Table VI and Table 711. These tables encompass all combinations of missiles and combatants found in Third World navies and those projected for the foreseeable future with the exception of the NANOCHKA which

may be be delivered to India (see Appendix A). 98 The tables demonstrate the impact of the missile scores on overall platform scores. Technological considerations also play an important rcle in determining platform scores. The inclusion of ECM/DECM equipment and sophisticated antiship missile defense systems, such as the Gatling rapid-fire

weapon, greatly influence the scores and relative rankings of the various platforms. The relative importance of speed and defensive capability in Scenario #2 is reflected in

Table VII. In addition, the relatively higher scores in

Scenario #2 show the impact of including a fourteenth characteristic ("Antiship Missile Defense Systems") to the

evaluation.

Similar scores for torpedo- firing diesel submarines are

provided in Table VIII. Contrary to the pattern encountered

with the uissile combatants, submarines of a particular

class show little variation from recipient to recipient.

So, for example, a North Korean ROMEO SS is essentially the same as a Chinese (PRC) ROMEO or an Egyptian unit of the same class. The major exceptions to this rule come in two areas where the supplier retains a degree of control. One area of variation is in the electronics suit which is transferred along with the submarine. The second differentiation is in the types of torpedoes provided as part of the purchase package. For example, the West German decision to export wire-guided torpedoes with the TYPE 206 and TYPE 209 submarines plays a major role in determining the relatively high scores which these units received in

Scenario #2. In like manner, the Soviets could greatly upgrade the sea denial scores for their exports, especially the FOXTROT SSs, by providing more sophisticated torpedoes to recipient nations.

Most of the submarines appearing in Table VIII have the capability tc fire a variety of torpedoes. The submarine capability scores were developed by calculating the total utility scores for each of the torpedoes which have been transferred sith each type of submarine (a combination of the scores for "Torpedo Speed", "Effective Range of the

Torpedo", "Torpedo Guidance System") and selecting the torpedo with the highest score for inclusion in the total

111 score for that class of submarine. In cases where one torpedo had a higher score in one scenario and a second torpedo scored higher in the other scenario, the second torpedo wculd be used for the second scoring. So, for example, the French Z-16 torpedo was used to compute utility scores for the French AGOSTA SS in Scenario #1, while the

E-12 scored highest for the AGOSIA SS in Scenario #2 and was used in making that calculation.

This method for determining maximum platform capability is consistent with an effort to portray the maximum sea denial capability of the platforms under consideration. It is also consistent with the assumption that the Third World military planner would load his submarines with the optimal torpedoes for the anticipated mission. The inclusion cf the

GOLF SSB is also consistent with an examination of maximum sea denial potential. While an antiship role is not the primary mission cf an SSB, its 10 torpedo tubes do give it an antiship capability." The PRC's single HAN SS (N) was

included because it is still not certain whether the unit is

diesel or nuclear powered. 100

The submarine scores present an opportunity for comparing MAUT-derived scores to real-world circumstances.

112

The list encapsulates historical trends in submarine production for various submarine builders. The Soviets began production of the WHISKEY SS in 1951*0*, switched to production cf the ROMEO SS in 1958-61*02 an a produced the

FOXTROT SS beginning in 1958, but continued production until

1967 — well after ROMEO production had ceased. 1 ^ 3 These production choices would be expected to reflect successive increases in the military worth of the diesel submarines being produced. The MAUT scores reflect an increasing sea denial capability for each successive class cf submarine in both of the scenarios outlined in the guesticnnaire. The same holds true for the French transition from DAPHNE SS production to building the AGOSTA SS; the U.S. improvements going frcm the TIBORON SS to the BALAO SS to the GUPPY and

TANG SSs; and the British shift from the T-CONVERSION SS to

OBERON SS series production. The consistency of the results appears to demonstrate the usefulness of the MAUT technique and have the added advantage of quantifying apparent increases in military worth of various diesel submarines.

E. STEP 10 —PRESENT SCORES TO DECISION MAKER

Most decision makers concerned with arms transfers and

113 sea denial threats are not acquainted with the concept of utility analysis. The use of MAUT-derived scores to assist the decision maker may require a brief explanation of the technique. Ihe fact that the curves which form the basis for MAUT represent expert judgments should be emphasized.

Presenting representative curves may be helpful in familiarizing the decision maker with the approach used in the preceeding nine steps. The scores contained in Tables V through VIII can be presented following a brief explanation.

In presenting MAUT analysis it may become necessary to caution against drawing unwarranted conclusions from the scores. One tendency is to attempt implicit combat modeling based on MAUT scores. It is very tempting to postulate from the scores fcr Scenario #2 that a Libyan PR-72 with EXCCET missiles should prevail over an Egyptian OSA PTFG in a one-on-one situation. However, MAUT scores cannot be used for combat modeling. Tendencies to misuse these utility scores must te countered with explanations that MAUT scores present rule-of-thumb indices of military worth which offer all of the advantages of quantification on a ratio scale, but that they do not predict combat outcomes.

Another tendency likely to be encountered is the desire

114 to focus en the ranking of various systems without noting the degree of difference between their scores. For instance, it is easy to sieze on the fact that the LA

C0MEAITAN1E II PTFG/EXOCET SSM combination is ranked first in the Scenario #1 utility scores. The fact that the

LEANDER DEGSF/EXOCET weapon system which ranks eighth scores only 2 percent below the LA COMBATTANTE II is important and must be brought out in the discussion. MAUT does not allow the precision necessary to make a differentiation which is as small as this. Instead, the first eight to ten units on the Scenario #1 list may be said to have approximately the same sea denial potential. At the same time, however, it can be said that the top group exhibits a significantly higher sea denial potential than those units which appear in the bottom half of the list.

The decision maker should also be cautioned against reading too nuch into scenario related/dependent scores.

The utility values presented in the preceeding tables do not represent all-inclusive statements about the military worth of the weapons involved. A ship designed primarily for ASW which mounts a minimal antiship missile capability would be expected to score poorly in comparison with systems such as the LA CCMEAITANTE II PTFG which were designed with the

115 missions outlined in the scenarios in mind. The scores say nothing about the overall military worth of the weapon systems being evaluated and the tendency to take the scores out of the context framed in the scenarios must be guarded against. The advantages of quantifying the threat discussed in the preceding chapters should be emphasized and the

MAOT-derived scores should be offered as a tool which can assist in assessing the sea denial threat from lesser developed nations.

The platforms themselves offer a potential threat as demonstrated ty the sea denial capabilities scores.

However, one important factor remains to be considered. A protlem often discussed with respect to the transfer of sophisticated weapons to Third World nations is the ccuntries* ability/inability to effectively maintain and operate these systems. Clearly, if the recipients of the systems discussed thus far are unable to operate them effectively cutside their home ports the potential sea denial capabilities will not be realized. The development of personnel scores and the computation of national sea denial capability scores is the subject of the following chapter.

116

VI. INCORPORATING HUMAN FACTORS

The military capabilities of lesser developed nations depend in large part on their ability to successfully employ advanced weapon systems. Questions concerning the ability to absorb the weapons, the adequacy of maintenance, the competence of the operators, the general technological skill level of the population, and the presence of foreign technicians and instructors become of prime importance. The questions are particularly applicable to the naval threat described in Chapters I and II. Systems which are not adequately maintained cannot put to sea. Antiship missile combatants lacking trained crews cannot effectively utilize the firepower inherent in the weapons platform. Maintenance and crew proficiency play an even greater role in submarine operations. Logistics and supply problems can further exacerbate difficulties which confront Third World navies.

The importance of personnel-related factors has long been recognized. These influences have traditionally been addressed in a rather general manner and are normally

117 presented as subjective assessments made by the analyst.

Rattinger reccgnized the need to include personnel factors in his quantification scheme, but merely devised a very general measurement device. 104 LeGrow dealt with the problem by asking his judge to assign scores to various nations* capabilities to operate fighter aircraft. He incorporated these scores into his MAUT-derived capability scores. io 5 LeGrow's methodology resulted in ratio-level scores which could be combined with platform utility scores to measure the air combat capabilities of various nations.

However, his approach lacked the precision available with other judgmental techniques. It would also have been difficult to apply to scale a large number of instances such as the 37 nations which have acquired antiship missile combatants and/or torpedo-firing diesel submarines.

The difficulties prompted a search for an alternative scaling technique which could accomodate the relatively large number of cases involved in the study. The investigation of judgmental scaling methods was further constrained by the requirement that the technique provide ratio-level information which could be mathematically combined with platform utility scores. The Constant Sum

Method meets these requirements. The Constant Sum Method is

118 a well established scaling technique which dates back to the

1930's. It was improved and modified in the period leading up to the publication of Torgerson's Theory and Methods of

Scaling in 1S58.io*

The method calls upon the judge to consider every possible pair of instances. Within each pair the judge is asked to divide 100 points between the two instances "...in accordance with the absolute ratio of the greater to the lesser." 107 For example, a 50-50 split would indicate a judgment that the two instances were of egual magnitude, while an 80-20 division would indicate that the former was four times as large as the latter. The judge is called upon to evaluate n(n-1)/2 pairs of instances if there are n instances to scale. So, for the 37 nations possessing antiship missile combatants and/or diesel submarines, the

judge would have to evaluate 666 pairs of instances. (This was an obvious area of concern which will be addressed in the next section.) Internal inconsistencies which might occur within this large group of judgments are minimized by applying a least-squares fit to the data received from the

judges. (An in-depth example of the constant sum methodology with accompanying discussion is presented in

Torgerson.) l ° 8 The Constant Sum methodology provides

119 ratio-level data. It also is capable of measuring the personnel factors which influence military capabilities of the relatively large number of nations included in the present study. What is more important, however, is the fact that it permiits a greater degree of precision than the

LeGrow approach and combines the judgments of numerous experts into a single capability scale. These advantages led to the adoption of the Constant Sura technique to scale

Third World personnel factors related to sea denial capabilities.

A. QUESTIONNAIRE PREPARATION

The requirement to bring together judges with wide-ranging knowledge of the capabilities of Third World navies dictated that evaluations be solicited through questionnaires. In an era of specialization, with the attendant tendency for analysts to concentrate on narrowly defined geographic areas, this general expertise is unusual.

The problem is compounded when the broad expertise must be coupled with the in-depth knowledge necessary for meaningful evaluation of specific Third World navies.

120

Twenty judges eventually were selected. All were personally known to the researcher. The judges ranged in rank from Lieutenant to Commander. Each has had extensive staff-level experience as a naval analyst. Five had recent experience as members of U.S. Navy fleet staffs. This experience carried with it an in-depth appreciation for the capabilities of navies found within the geographic area in which their fleet operated.

The questionnaire which was developed (Appendix F) asked the judge to evaluate Third World nations' capabilities to successfully operate antiship missile combatants and/or torpedo- firing diesel submarines in an open ocean sea denial mission. The instructions suggested that evaluations might be based in part on a demonstrated capability to perform the open ocean mission, the presence of the technology and training necessary for successful accomplishment of the mission, and the ability of a particular nation to man the platforms with competent crews. The purpose of the suggestions was to focus the judg.e*s attention on an evaluation of the personnel factors, as opposed to the performance characteristics of the platforms found in the various naval inventories. The judges' instructions concluded with a brief explanation of the Constant Sum

121 scaling technique and an example accompanied by an interpretation of the hypothetical results.

The questionnaire was divided into three separate country lists. Each encompassed a specific geographic region. Ihis breakdown sought to exploit the expertise of those judges assigned to the fleet staffs by tailoring a portion of the questionnaire to fit their operational expertise in specific geographic areas. The three lists

were linked by including India on Country List #1 and #2 and by including Israel on Country List #1 and #3.

Sixteen of the twenty questionnaires were returned (80

percent response rate) . The majority of the judges responded to more than one portion of the questionnaire.

This indicates that the researcher's concern over the length

of the questionnaire and the fact that the judge was being

asked to evaluate a large number of pairs of instances was

largely unfounded.

B. COMPOTE COUNTRY CAPABILITY SCORES

The actual computations used to derive country

122 capability scores represent a refinement of the Torgerson

treatment of the Constant Sum Method. 109 The computations will be demonstrated in the following paragraphs by using actual judges 1 scores for various Middle Eastern nations taken from Country List #1. The example is based upon the scores assigned to Egypt and Israel by the sixteen judges who evaluated their relative naval capabilities. The

judges' scores for these two nations are displayed in Table

IX. The first step consists of averaging judges' responses for each nation involved in the study. The average score for Egypt with respect to Israel is 505 divided by 16 or

3 1.5625 and the average score for Israel is 1095 divided by

16 or 68.4375.

The second step in the computations involves placing these average scores on an array displayed in part in Table

X. The array for Country List #1 would have 13 rows and 13 columns corresponding to the 13 nations included in the list. (The averages for Iran and Iraq have been included in

Table X to increase the completeness of the example.)

Scores for particular nations are arrayed to be read down the columns. Thus, the average score for Egypt compared to

Iran is 44.6875, Egypt compared to Iraq 70.3125, Egypt

compared to Israel 31.5625, etc.

124

Step 3 involves constructing a second array displaying the ratios of the values for pairs of nations. Thus, the score for Egypt with respect to Iran is 44.6875 divided by its counterpart across the diagonal depicted in Table XI

(55.3125) to give a score of .80791. The score for Iran with respect to Egypt is the reciprical of .80791 or

1.23776. In like manner the score for Egypt compared to

Iraq is 36842 divided by .42222 or 5.60945. The reciprocal

(.17827) gives the score for Iraq with respect to Egypt.

The same computations are completed for each pair across the

diagonal cf the array. The resultant array is found in

Table XI. Again, the total array would have 13 rows and 13 columns.

TABLE XI

ARRAY OF RATIO SCORES

125

The final step is to take the geometric mean of the columns. Thus, the score for Egypt would be determined by the product cf (1) (.80791) f2. 36842) (.4611 9) = 10950.1948 taken to the 1/13 power since there are 13 entries in the column. The resultant scale value for Egypt is 2.04515.

Similar geometric means taken for each column in turn determine the scale values for each nation. The scale values for each of the three country lists are shown in

Table XII. By using the overlapping scores for India and

Israel it is possible to combine the scores into one scale,

The combined scale is displayed in Table XIII.

C. COMBINING PLATFORM AND PERSONNEL-RELATED SCORES

Both the antiship missile combatant and the diesel submarine questionnaires (Appendix B and C) asked the judges to evaluate the relative importance of personnel and

platform-related factors to mission success. In each case the scores were placed on a scale ranging from a minimum of

zero to a maximum of ten. A ratio-level scale was achieved

by defining zero as a natural origin the point at which

a factor makes nc contribution to performance of the mission

Note: The questionnaire failed to include Somalia and Senegal. Both have close counterparts in terms of geographic proximity, similarity of equipment and supplier, and date of initial equipment acquisition. Based on these considerations, Senegal has been assigned Ivory Coast's score of 0.25 and Somalia has been assigned Iraq's score of 0.98 for use in future computations.

128 outlined in the scenario. The scores received from the individual judges are displayed in Table XIV along with the average scores for the factors and the standard deviations for each. Only seven of the antiship missile combatant judges chcse to provide weighting scores, while all of the submarine questionnaire respondents provided weightings.

The judges 1 replies confirmed the importance of personnel-related factors in evaluating sea denial capabilities of lesser developed nations. There was substantial agreement that personnel-related factors were more important than platform performance characteristics in the case cf the missile combatants. In the case of the diesel submarines, the factors were judged tc be roughly equivalent. In toth cases the relative importance of the personnel-related considerations increased in the Scenario

#2 combat situation. The clear implication is that any assessment of Third World sea denial capabilities which

excludes an evaluation of personnel-related considerations

fails to include an extremely important determinant of the threat.

The personnel and platform weightings provided by the

experts must be included in the evaluation of the sea denial

130 potential of a specific nation's naval inventory. In crder for the weightings to be applied in concert with the platform and personnel scores, the scales had to be transformed. Transformation of the scales for antiship

missile combatants {Tables VI and VII) , diesel submarines

(Table VIII) and personnel-related factors (Table XIII) was necessary in part because the scales were based on differing numbers of performance characteristics. Twelve factors were included in the antiship missile combatant scores for

Scenario #1. Thirteen characteristics went into the calculations of the antiship missile combatant scores for

Scenario #2. Eleven totally different characteristics formed the basis for computations of utility scores for the diesel submarines. The personnel-related factors obviously were computed on a different base.

Transformation of ratio-level data is permitted so long as the transformation coefficient is greater than zero and

the transformation takes the form of b (x) , where b is the coefficient and (x) is the existing scale value. 110 The coefficients used in the current transformations were selected so that the value for the platform with the highest score on each scale would equal twenty. The transformation of the utility score for the antiship missile combatants

137 contained in Table VI, for example, required that the previous utility values be multiplied by a transformation coefficient cf .053 to convert the score for the LA

COMBATTANTE III PTFG from 377 to 20. Each score on the same scale was subsequently multiplied by the same coefficient to complete the transformation and develop the scale displayed in Table XV.

It is worth noting that this transformation does net affect the natural origin and does not alter the relationship between the scores for combatants measured on the scale A simple example will prove this point. In Table

VI the scores ranged from the LA COMBATTANTE III PTFG's 377 to the BHAVE PTGL's 182. On the transformed scale the respective utility scores were 20.00 and 9.66. On both scales the score for BRAVE PTGL was equal to U8 percent of the score for the LA COMBATTANTE III. The relationships between the scores for other ships on the same scale were similarly unaffected.

Similar transformations with the appropriate coefficients were accomplished for the scales contained in

Tables XVI, XVII and XVIII. In each case the transformation coefficient was arbitrarily selected to set the platform/

138 country with the highest score equal to twenty.

Platform utility scores and personnel-related factors were examined for utility independence, pairwise preferential independence and pairwise marginality to determine the correct combinatorial relationship. The same concepts and rules apply which pertained to determining the correct relationship for calculating platform utility in

Step 9. The questionnaires were constructed so as to treat platform utility independent of personnel factors. The country factor scores were similarly separated from considerations of weapon system sophistication and capability. The two independence tests and the choice indifference situation addressed in pairwise marginality are all present. The additive combinatorial relationship applies when all three tests are met. 111 The score for a sea denial platform in a particular nation's inventory was determined by multiplying the factor weighting found in

Table XIV tiites the personnel factor score for that

particular country (Table XVIII) . The platform factor weighting frcm Table XIV was similarly multiplied by the appropriate transformed utility score. The two resultant figures were summed to determine the sea denial score for the particular platform.

139

An example comparing three specific platforms will display the procedure used to develop platform scores and will compare demonstrated Third World capabilities with scores derived through the technique just described. Many observers might feel that the scores displayed in Table XVI do not reflect the mastery the Israeli RESHEF/SAAR IV PTFG displayed during the October 1973 war. As demonstrated in the previous section of this chapter, platform utility scores only present one determinant of military capability.

Personnel-related factors play a major part in determining the effectiveness of naval platforms. Israel is generally recognized to have well-trained military personnel and the capability tc utilize and maintain military equipment. This ability is reflected in the high personnel factor score assigned to Israel by the experts. Examining the platform utility scores in isolation is misleading. A side-by-side comparison of the Israeli RESHEF/SAAR IV and the OSA I PTFGs of Israel's opponents set in the Scenario #2 war-at-sea situation which include the personnel factor may be more revealing.

a. Israeli RESHEF/SAAR IV PTFG:

(9.7) (20.00) + (8.7) (17.53) = 347

b. Egyptian OSA I PTFG:

(9.7) (12.28) + (8.7) (15.78) = 256

140

c. Syrian OSA I PTFG:

(9.7) (8.33) + (8.7) (15.78) = 218

The scores show the Israeli RESHEF/SAAR IV to be 1.35 times as effective within the war-at-sea scenario as the Egyptian

OSA PTFG and approximately 1.6 times as effective as the

Syrian OSA. While this is a static measure ''which does not allow combat modeling or predicting outcomes of specific engagements, it does appear to reflect the previously demonstrated capabilities of the individual nations.

As was the case with the submarine utility scores examined in Chapter V, quantification which corresponds to subjective judgments of decision makers and analysts who deal with the problem is essential to achieving their acceptance of the measurement technique. Comparison of

MAOT-derived capability scores with the demonstrated abilities of specific nations to successfully employ the weapon systems is a highly visible test of validity.

Unfortunately, there are few instances where Third World nations have demonstrated sea denial/interdiction capabilities. Thus, it is extremely important for the MAOT technique to meet the few validity checks which are available. In the case of the submarine developments enunciated in Chapter V and the brief assessment of the

141

Arab-Israeli comparison MAUT has met the validity test

D. DEVELOPING NATIONAL SEA DENIAL INDEXES

Combining sea denial capability scores for antiship

missile combatants . and diesel submarines involves comparing

"apples and oranges" to the extent that dissimilar systems are involved. However, there is a common threat posed by the two types of systems which promotes their combination into a common index. CDR Eldridge dealt with the problem of combining firepower indexes by multiplying submarine firepower scores by a factor of 1.2 before combining submarine scores with the scores for the antiship missile combatants. The 1.2 factor was an intuitive score designed

"...to account for the increased complexity of the... defensive problem" 112 presented by submerged platforms.

Gathering expert opinion about the weighting to apfly to either the submarine or the missile combatant threat presents an alternative to simple intuitive reasoning. Ten

D.S. Navy Surface Warfare Officers at the Naval Postgraduate

School were asked to place themselves in the position of tne

Captain of the merchant ship/tanker or Commanding Officer of

142 the surface combatants under attack in the scenarios outlined in the sea denial questionnaires (Appendix B and

C) . Each was asked to assign a value ranging from zerc to ten to the threat posed by an antiship missile combatant or a diesel submarine in each scenario. Again zero was defined as the point at which the attacker posed no threat. The average score assigned to both the missile combatant and the diesel submarine in the Scenario #1 attack upon a merchant ship/tanker was 8.6. When placed in the position of the

Commanding Officer of the surface combatant in the Scenario

#2 combat situations, the judges assigned a score of 6.3 to the typical missile ship and an average score of 5.8 tc the diesel submarine threat. The fact that the experts evaluated the two threats as being of approximately equal magnitude removed the requirement to weight either factor in developing overall capability scores. (No attempt will be made to compare capability scores from Scenario #1 to

Scenario #2.)

The development of aggregate sea denial capability scores for each of the Third World nations demonstrates the flexibility inherent in MAUT-derived judgments of military worth. It also presents information which might be requested by a decision maker. It provides a meaningful

143 index of the naval balance within a particular geographical area. It also would assist a policy maker faced with the difficult decisions which accompany requests for security assistance to meet a perceived threat from a neighboring nation. A number of additional uses for such an index might be envisioned. Suffice it to say Jthat an index of this type is in keeping with the demands which might be placed on a researcher by a decision maker.

An overall sea denial/interdiction score requires an up-to-date naval order-of-battle listing such as the one contained in Appendix A. Utility scores for a particular weapon platform are combined with the personnel-related factor sccre as demonstrated in the previous section of this chapter. The resultant score is multiplied by the number of platforms of that type contained in the nation's naval inventory. Scores for particular types of weapon systems are summed to develop aggregate sea denial scores for each nation in turn. (Table XIX presents the scores for Scenario

#1 and Table XX displays similar scores for Scenario #2.)

The two tables present the decision maker with a large amcunt of information about the sea denial/interdiction capabilities of Third World nations. Each shows the current

situation with respect to missile-carrying surface

combatants and torpedo-firing diesel submarines. The third column gives aggregate capability scores. The fourth column

displays the aggregate capability scores for each nation

assuming the delivery of all systems currently contracted for

and no retirement of existing systems. The tables have the

advantages of being concise, easily interpreted and quickly

updated as information concerning inventory changes becomes

available. They present the decision maker with capability

scores, rather than the relatively unsophisticated outputs of

techniques displayed in Chapter III. They incorporate the

capabilities which are inherent in the weapons platforms and

take into account the ability of the recipient nation to

effectively utilize the weapons. No other technique

discovered to date has the ability to combine this number of

complex factors into a sophisticated, yet easily understood,

format. These advantages cannot be overstressed in an era of

extreme demands on decision makers* time and the resultant

reliance on meaningful research.

E. THE MIDELE EAST CRISIS SCENARIO

What insights can be gained by application of the scores

149 to the 1980 crisis scenario postulated in Chapter I? MAUT focuses attention on a number of factors highlighted in that scenario. The implications which can be drawn will be demonstrated by taking each nation involved in that scenario in turn.

1. Kuwait: Kuwait has neither antiship missile combatants, nor diesel submarines. However, acquisition of antiship missile combatants is expected in the near future.

Scores derived in this thesis suggest that Kuwait's best counter to the Iragi naval build-up would be to purchase high capability ships such as the LA COMBATTANTE III PTFG with the

EXCCET SSft to exploit the deficiencies of the OSA PTFGs in the Iragi inventory (Table XVI) and to exploit the relatively low Iraqi personnel-related factors (Table XVIII) by developing or hiring a highly trained cadre of personnel.

2. Saudi Arabia: The judges considered the Saudis about equal to the Iraqis in the personnel-related areas (Table

XVIII) . Thus, relative capabilities become dependent en the numbers and nilitary worth of the ships in each nation's inventory. The absence of information about the numbers and performance characteristics of the missile combatants to be provided as part of the Saudi Naval Expansion Program package

150 precludes further evaluation of the possible impact of the

Saudi decision to support Kuwait in the hypothetical crisis situation.

3. Iraq: The platform capability scores in Table XV and

XVI reveal that further Soviet deliveries of OSA PTFGs might be required in order for Iraq to retain a position of dominance over combined Kuwaiti and Saudi forces, especially if Kuwait were to acquire ships of the LA CCMBATTANTE III

PTFG caliter. The relatively poor score for the OSA PTFG in the war-at-sea situation, coupled with the unimpressive personnel-related score for Iraq, means that the Soviets would have tc resupply Iraq with more than one OSA PTFG for each LA CCMfiATTANTE III PTFG introduced into the Kuwaiti inventory in order to maintain Iraqi superiority. An alternative would be to improve training and logistics support to raise Iraq's personnel-related score.

4. Iran: tfhile Iraq and Iran are roughly equivalent in sea denial capabilities at the present time (Table XIX and

XX) , the Shah will clearly have the dominant navy in the

Persian Gulf by 1980. This is a result of both the influx of significant numbers of very capable weapon platforms and the nigh perscnnel-related score assigned to Iran by the judges.

151

A force with these considerable capabilities operating in the confines cf the Persian Gulf as described in the crisis scenario will be formidable.

5. Libya: Libyan sea denial capabilities are among the lowest in the Middle East at the present time. However, the influx of capable weapon platforms such as the PR-72 PTFG

{Tables XV and XVI) will give President Qadhaafi one of the dominant Third World navies by 1980. If the rather dismal personnel-related score (Table XVIII) could be improved in the interim, Libyan capabilities could be expanded even further.

6. Egypt: It is realistic to assume that Egypt views the growing Libyan naval capabilities with concern. While

Egypt is clearly dominant at present (Table XIX and XV) , she may well be surpassed by Libya in the near future. The possibility that Egyptian units might have to be retired or scrapped for spare parts in the interim period further aggravates the Egyptian situation. The relatively high score for personnel-related factors indicates that an effort to improve Egyptian naval capabilities will have to concentrate on inventory augmentation with units comparable to the guality of the units being acquired by Libya. In short, by

152

1980 Egypt might be expected to call for outside support in the face of a Libyan blockade as was postulated in the hypothetical crisis scenario.

7. Israel: The overall capability scores show Israel to be roughly equivalent to Egypt as the dominant navy in the

Eastern Mediterranean at present. This is clearly the case of meeting Egyptian quantity with Israeli quality as demonstrated by the scores. The orders which have been place for additional antiship missile and submarine platforms and the high guality personnel and support functions will improve

Israel's relative position in the near future making her the single dominant naval force in the Eastern Mediterranean.

What cf the concerns of the major naval powers over the threat of guerrilla-type attacks on Western shipping? The quantification of sea interdiction capabilities indicates that the concerns are legitimate and that the threat is growing. For example, in the foreseeable future the sea interdiction potential of nations cast in the scenario as being in opposition to the West will increase as follows

(from Table XX) :

1. Iran Up 400 percent over 1977 level.

2. Libya Op 1500 percent over 1977 level.

153

Other significant, if less spectacular, increases will occur at the same time in other, geographically dispersed parts of the Third World.

154

VII. CONCLUSIONS

This study has demonstrated a potential problem for

Western nations who are dependent on sea lines of communication for supplies of vital resources. Third World navies are rapidly enlarging their sea interdiction capabilities and their capacity for limited-area sea denial.

The increased capabilities are primarily embodied in large-scale acquisitions of antiship missile combatants and torpedo-firing diesel submarines. The magnitude of these acquisitions alone requires that the threat and the potential foreign policy implications which attend transfers of these systems be closely examined.

A survey of previous attempts to measure military capabilities reveals a need for improved analytic techniques.

Arms transfer analysis in general requires meaningful inquiry into the military capabilities which are being transferred to

Third World nations. Meaningful analysis is particularly important to evaluation of Third World naval capabilities because of the direct threat to Western interests which these

155 capabilities can pose. The immediacy of the threat has generated an urgent requirement for analytical techniques which can transcend inventory counting or dcllar expenditure evaluations to analyze military capabilities.

Multi-Attribute Utility Theory as developed in the LeGrow thesis offers a technique for meaningful quantification of military capabilities. The theory behind the technique is sound. It produces ratio-level data which increases its usefulness and avoids the computational abuses which often accompany the use of interval-level data. The application of

MAUT to the sea denial capabilities question resulted in three majcr findings.

1. MAUT is a workable technique. MAUT and the Constant

Sum Method are both amenable to treatment in questionnaires.

The required computations are easily explained and can be performed on a hand-held calculator. The two techniques operating in concert permit the incorporation of a wide range of expertise into the study. The results obtained are consistent with observed real-world phenomena.

2 MAUT is well suited to asses smen ts of Military capabilities. MAUT/ augmented by the Constant Sum Method,

156 permits a comprehensive examination of the multi-faceted problem of quantifying military capabilities. It measures capabilities directly, rather than relying on surrogate measures such as weapon system cost. MAUT and the Constant

Sum Method offer an optimal trade-off between realism and sophistication. They incorporate measurements of the important determinants of weapon system capabilities tc present a realistic appraisal of military worth. In this regard they offer greater sophistication than current methods, tut do not become encumbered in the complexities of computer programs and higher mathematics as do sophisticated combat models. Finally, the method has the flexibility required for imaginative application in the area of arms transfer analysis.

3. MAUT off er s a meani ngful po-licy- mak inq tool . The technique described in this thesis can aid in bridging the chasm which cften exists between the analyst immersed in the

intricacies of a problem and the decision maker who remains a

generalist. MAUT offers expert judgments presented in an easily understood format. The output is concise. Its

flexibility permits tailoring the technique to answer the

policy maker's specific questions. MAUT outputs can serve as

excellent rules-cf-thumb for a decision maker lacking the

157

. requisite expertise to make direct evaluations of military capabilities

A. SUBSTANTIVE ANALYSIS

The focus of this thesis has been on a thorougn examination of the MAUT technique, rather than on sutstantive analysis. However, the presence of the real and growing potential threat from lesser developed nations' navies requires that major substantive findings be brought to the reader's attention.

1 . Current analysis tends to und erstate the £Ot en t ial se a interdiction threat. Figures presented in Chapter II showed that Third World antiship missile combatant inventories will expand approximately 66 percent between 1977 and 1980.

Inventories of diesel submarines will increase by approximately 33 percent over the same period. MAUT-derived scores taken from Table XIX and XX demonstrate that capabilities will increase in excess of 85 percent during that time period. Moreover, this dramatic increase is tremendously understated. It does not include Soviet^bloc transfers which might occur during the period. Non-Communist

158 transfers have been omitted where detailed information is lacking. But, more significantly, the 85 percent increase is based on present personnel-related factor scores. It is anticipated that additional training and operational experience obtained during the three-year period will add significantly to the 1980 capability scores.

2. Concentrations of sea denial capabil itie s have occurred/are ev olv ing in specific geographical regions. Much of this concentration has taken place in areas which are particularly vital to Western interests. The Eastern

Mediterranean is a case in point. In North Africa, the anticipated ten-fold increase in Moroccan capabilities and

Libya's dramatic 1500 percent expansion may have profound implications for naval planners. Further, Libyan and

Moroccan plans may spur increased acquisitions by neighboring

Algeria, Tunisia and Egypt which will raise the concentration of naval capabilities in this area. Other areas of interest which evolve from MAUT analysis are South Africa, the Persian

Gulf and the nations surrounding the Straits of Malacca. All have/will have dense concentrations of sea denial capabilities in restricted ocean areas.

3- Transfers of technology greatly, affect sea denial

159 capabilities. The MAUT technique clearly demonstrates the significant impact which technology transfers have on sea denial potential. Transfers of ECM/DECM eguipment, deliveries cf sophisticated torpedoes and incorporation of antiship nissile defenses can rapidly upgrade existing systems. Decisions to deliver follow-on missiles like the improved EXOCET could alter regional naval balances. The implications of technology transfers are dramatic because of the speed with which changes can occur. Lead time on delivery cf new surface combatants and submarines could be five to seven years. Transfers of technology can occur within a matter of weeks or months.

4. Personnel and societal infl uen ces are often ignored.

The judges rated personnel considerations approximately equal to weapon performance in determining the sea denial potential cf lesser developed nations. Arms transfer analysis tends to overlook personnel and societal influences. In doing so it ignores extrenely important factors.

MAUT analysis displayed two distinct groups of nations.

The first grouping has largely realized its potential in personnel-related fields. This group is epitomized by

Israel, South Africa and the PRC. These nations must

160 concentrate efforts to increase sea denial potential in the weapons acquisition/improvement areas. Each is currently pursuing this course of action.

The second group encompasses nations with potential which has not teen realized because of low personnel-related scores. This group would be expected to attempt to increase sea denial potential by upgrading training, maintenance and logistics functions. The relative speed with which benefits can be realized, compared with the length of time required to acguire additional weapon systems, requires close examination of personnel-related factors.

B. SUGGESTIONS FOE FURTHER STUDY

Further study of Multi-Attribute Utility Theory is clearly warranted. Three areas of investigation are suggested.

1 • £§£§ii^i research. Duplicate research in the area of sea denial capabilities is reguired to examine the reliability cf the capability scores presented in this thesis. Sensitivity analysis should be accomplished to

161 determine whether the results were biased by the chcice of experts or by the questionnaires utilized in the study.

2. Expansion of MAUT . MAUT should be expanded into additional areas of military capability analysis. Studies of other missicr.s and scenarios are warranted. Investigation of additional missions and scenarios will further develop the mechanics of the technique.

3. Utilize results for substantive anal ysis . The study of sea denial capabilities suggests applications for MAUT in analysis cf arms racing. Application of MAUT capability scores to sinulations and projection techniques might be explored. Study of the interaction of geography and naval capabilities is is also required. For example, the PRC's tremendous naval capability score is significantly tempered by requirements placed on its navy by a long coastline and widely separated operating areas. A smaller concentration of sea denial capabilities in restricted waters such as the

Straits cf Malacca may prove to be far more significant.

Updated personnel-related factor scores, coupled with current platform capability scores for a wide variety cf platforms and scenarios, would provide the basis for

162 responsive and meaningful research. MAUT has the ability to meet a decision maker's needs in quantifying military worth.

The development of the necessary MAUT-derived scores and an in-depth exploration of potential applications of the technique remains to be accomplished.

25 Jane^s Fighting. Ships 1 976-77 published reports that India Has crdlred~~an unknown number of NANUCHKA PGGs from the Soviet Union. These units normally carry the SS-N-9 antiship missile. Whether this modern Soviet missile will be exported remains to be seen. 26 A number of reports of HARPOON sales have been noted. They include a report in Jane's Fighting Ships 1976-77 that Iran has ordered 222 HARPOUTT cintisnip missiles. 27 A detailed breakdown of missile combatant deliveries and deletions by country is contained in Appendix A. 2a The Soviet WHISKEY SS is based on World War II German design. The BALAO SSs which have been exported were constructed in the 1944-45 period. A number of this class have already been retired by Third World recipients. (See Appendix A.) 29 The West German TYPE 209 SS, which is currently ceing produced is an example of the level of sophistication available to Third World recipients. 30 The TYPE 209, for example, is capable of 22 knots dived and carries the wire-guided SST-4 active/passive sonar homing 1 torpedo.

Subj: Student Questionnaire; distribution of

End: (1) Sea Denial Capabilities Questionnaire

1. Enclosure 1 represents one part of a student research project currently underway ac the Naval Postgraduate School which is designed to measure the military worth of small, missile-equipped surface combatants. Results of this questionnaire will be incorporated into a thesis being prepared by LT Lowell 3. Jacoby as a degree require- ment in the Naval Intelligence Curriculum.

2. Distribution of this questionnaire has been greatly constrained by the lack of personnel within the U.S. Navy structure with expertise in the area of anti-ship missile capabilities and/or experience with small combatants of the ^ype being employed by lesser developed nations a3 anti-ship missile platforms. Thus, each response to this questionnaire becomes very important to this research effort.

3. Questionnaire results should be returned to LT Jacoby via the pre-addressed envelope enclosed. Given "he time constraints imposed by a March 1977 graduation date, completion of the question- naire at your earliest convenience would greatly aid the research.

[;. Your participation in this research project would be most appreciated.

SEA DENIAL CAPABILITIES QUESTIONNAIRE

The proliferation of sophisticated anti-ship missile systems and modern small combatant platforms for these systems has caused increasing concern among naval planners. The demand for these relatively inexpensive weapons systems and the ability of lesser developed nations to effectively employ these platforms is likely to expand. The naval threat from lesser developed nations is likely to expand accordingly. Research being conducted by LT Lowell E. Jacoby at the Naval Fostgraduate School is attempting to evaluate the military worth of these weapons systems in order to better identify the threat that these systems pose. In this questionnaire you will be asked to evaluate various performance characteristics of surface-to-surface missiles and/or small surface combatants which typically are as- sociated with these missiles in lesser developed nations' navies. The results from this questionnaire will provide an important input for an evaluation of the military capabilities of these modem naval systems. Scenarios Two scenarios are of particular concern in considering the implications of the transfer of anti-ship missiles and small surface combatants to lesser developed nations. Scenario £l involves the possibility of guerrilla-type operations against merchant ships/ tankers or surprise attacks against isolated surface combatants. Inherent in this scenario is the requirement that the missile plat- form transit to normal sea lanes/open ocean operating areas to con- duct the attack. It is assumed that the attack would occur at the time and place of the missile boat commander's choice in conditions most favorable to the missile platform, and that the engagement would occur out of range of land or 3ea-based air cover.

The other scenario ( Scenario =2 ) concerns the possibility of missile platform vs missile platform war-at-sea between two or more lesser developed nations. This scenario matches the platforms in one-on-one engagements and assumes that neither opponent would have air support. The scenario is modeled upon confrontations such as

I96 Appendix B

Example The methodology being utilized in this research is termed "Multi-Attribute Utility Theory (MAUD". MAUT requires the develop- ment of utility curves which serve as standards against which real- world systems can be judged. 'The following utility curve drawn from a study of air combat capabilities will serve as an illustration of the technique. Utility Curve of Speed

1 .0 1 ' 2 1.5 1.'3 2\0^ Maximum Combac Mach Number

Interpretation: Judges evaluating Maximum Combat Mach Number

indicate that a fighter's utility is minimal below a maximum Mach number of 1.2 and that utility increases steadily between Mach num- bers of 1.2 and 1.3. Ac Mach 1.3 speed is optimal (represented by a score of 10) and utility decreases at speeds in excess of Mach 1.3, C-iven "his curve, an aircraft with a maximum Mach number of 1.3 is

twice as useful as a fighter as one with a 1 .2 maximum. Also, an

aircraft with a maximum combat Mach number of 1.5 would have a utility score of 3 for this characteristic.

197 Appendix B

-3- Questionnaire Instructions You are asked to answer questions and sketch utility curves for the following, characteristics associated with naval surface-to- surface missile systems or naval missile platforms. If you do not feel qualified to judge a particular characteristic, it should not preclude you from answering other questions, since each is considered

to be independent of all other questions. In each case a utility

3core of zero represents the minimum for a particular characteristic necessary for successful performance of the mission outlined in each scenario. (Example: The judges felt that below 1.3 Mach an aircraft does not have sufficient speed to successfully perform the air combat mission.) A utility 3core of ten represents the upper limit; ie. what you judge to be technologically feasible or desirable, to perform the mission outlined in each scenario. (Example: 1.3 Mach represents the 3peed the judges felt was mo3t desirable in an air combat environment.) At the end of the Questionnaire you are asked to weight those factors which you judged. It should bo emphasized that you are being asked for subjective judgSBB&S: based on your experience at all times in filling out this questionnaire.

3. Many of the lesser developed nations face money constraints in purchasing naval missile platforms. This makes the cose per unit and considerations of the number of units which are desira'cle given zhs flexibility/ survivability which accompanies larger numbers of units of prime concern in purchasing decisions.

Results of this questionnaire will be incorporated into a thesis being prepared by LT Lowell Z. Jacoby as a degree requirement in the Naval Intelligence Curriculum.

2. Distribution of this questionnaire has been greatly constrained by the shortage of personnel within the U.S. Navy structure with analytical expertise and/or recent operational experience with diesel submarines. Thus, each response to thi3 questionnaire be- comes very important to this research effort.

DJSSEL SUBMARINE CAPABILITIES QUESTIONNAIRE

The increase in the numbers of diesel submarines in lesser developed nations' inventories and the increase in numbers of nations possessing torpedo-firing diesel submarines in recent years has caused increasing concern among naval planners. The demand for submarines and the ability of lesser developed nations to effectively employ these platforms is likely to expand. The naval threat from lesser developed nations is likely to expand accordingly. Research being conducted by LI Lowell E. Jacoby at the Naval Postgraduate School is attempting to evaluate the military worth of these weapons systems in order to better identify the threat that these systems pose. In this questionnaire you will be asked to evaluate various performance characteristics of torpedo-firing diesel submarines. The results from this questionnaire will provide an important input for an evaluation of the military capabilities of these naval weapons systems. Scenarios Two scenarios are of particular concern in considering the implications of the transfer of torpedo-firing diesel submarines to lesser developed nations. Scenario rl involves the possibility of guerrilla-type operations against merchant ships/tankers or sur- prise attacks against isolated surface combatants. Inherent in this scenario is the requirement that the attacking submarine transit to normal sea lanes to conduct the attack. It is assumed that the attack would occur at the time and place of the submarine commander's choice in conditions most favorable to the attacking unit, and that the entire attack phase of the scenario would occur out of range of land or sea-based surveillance and/or ASW aircraft.

The other scenario (S cenario ?2 ) concerns the possibility that diesel submarines would be U3ed in a war-at-sea between two or more lesser developed nations. It is assumed that the submarines would be employed against the other nation's surface combatants in this circumstance. These ships generally have a limited ASW capability. The surface combatants are assumed to be alert to the submarine

208 Appendix G

Example The methodology being utilized in this research is termed "Multi-Attribute Utility Theory (MAUT)." MAUT requires the develop- ment of utility curves which serve as standards against which real- world systems can be judged. The following utility curve drawn from a study of air combat capabilities will serve as an illustration of che technique. Utility Curve of 5oeed

10 -r

z.S -

T T 1 .i 1.2 2.0 T.5 Maximum Combat Mach Sunt

Interpretation: Judges evaluating Maximum Combat Mach Number indicate that a fighter's utility is minimal below a maximum Mach number of 1 .2 and that utility increases steadily between Mach num- bers of 1.2 and 1.8. At Mach 1.3 speed is optimal (represented by a score of 10) and utility decreases at speeds in excess of Mach 1.8, C-iven this curve, an aircraft with a maximum Mach number of 1.5 is twice as useful as a fighter as one with a 1.2 maximum. Also, an aircraft with a maximum combat Mach number of 1.5 would have a utility score of 8 for this characteristic.

-3- Questionnaire Instructions You are asked to answer questions and sketch utility curves for the following characteristics associated with naval surface-to- surface missile systems or naval missile platforms. If you do not feel qualified to judge a particular characteristic, it should not preclude you from answering other questions, since each is considered to be independent of all other questions. In each case a utility score of zero represents the minimum for a particular characteristic necessary for successful performance of the mission outlined in each scenario. (Example: The judges felt chat belcw 1.0 Mach an aircraft does not have sufficient speed tc successfully perform the air corneal; mission.) A utility score of ten represents the upper limit; ie. what you judge tc be technologically feasible or desirable, to perform the mission outlined in each scenario. (Example: 1.3 Mach represents the speed the judges felt was most desirable in an air combat environment.) At the end of the questionnaire you are asked to weight those factors which you judged. It should be emphasized that you are being asked for subjective judgments based on your experience at all times in filling out -his questionnaire.

1 . Many of the lesser developed nations face money constraints in purchasing submarines. This makes cost per unit and considerations concerning the number of units which are desirable given the in- creased flexibility/survivability which accompanies larger numbers of unita of prime concern in purchasing decisions. Given these trade-offs, what submerged displacement is most desirable (Utility of ten) for a submarine performing the mission outlined in Scenario

Enclosure (1) SEA DENIAL CAPABILITIES MEASUREMENT Questionnaire Instructions This questionnaire is part of a student research project being conducted by LT Lowell E. Jacoby at the Naval Postgraduate School. The research is attempting to evaluate the sea denial capabilities of various nations. Countries selected for study have or will receive anti-ship missile-equipped surface ships and/or torpedo-firing diesel submarines. Based on your expertise, you are asked to judge the various nations' capabilities to successfully operate these weapons platforms in an open ocean sea denial mission. Criteria for this evaluation might include (but not necessarily be limited to): a proven ability to perform this mission, the technology/training needed to maintain these weapons systems, and the ability to man these platforms with crews adequately trained to perform the mission. Specifically, you are asked to divide 100 points between the two countries in each of the pairs contained in Enclosures

2, 3, and U. in such a way as to reflect their relative capabilities to perform the open ocean sea denial mission with an anti-ship missile-equipped surface combatant and/or a torpedo-firing diesel submarine. For example, if two judges made the following point divisions it would indicate that Judge #1 feels that Prance is four times more capable than Albania, while Judge #2 feels that the two countries possess equal sea denial capabilities.

Judge #1 Judge #2 Albania 20 Albania 50 France 80 France $0 Again, let me emphasize that the questionnaire seeks to elicit a personal judgement based on your expertise. Thank you very much for your participation.
