Research on Weapon and Equipment Requirement Analysis Method Based on DODAF

Abstract

The method of architecture is an effective way to analyze the requirements of weapons and equipment. DODAF (U.S. Department of Defense Architecture Framework) is a standard specification issued by the U.S. Department of Defense in 2004 to guide the generation of military equipment requirements. DODAF has been widely recognized as the standard of weapon equipment requirement description. This paper introduces the concepts of DODAF, analyze DoDAF function, structure and problems of DoDAF, and discusses the basic process of weapon loading requirement analysis based on DODAF method, providing a new scientific method for the analysis and research of weapons and equipment requirements.
