A recent study has introduced a procedure to quantify the survivability of ateam of armoured fighting vehicles when it is subjected to a single missileattack. In particular this study investigated the concept of collaborativeactive protection systems, focusing on the case where vehicle defence isprovided by high power radio frequency directed energy weapons. The purpose ofthe current paper is to demonstrate how this analysis can be extended toaccount for more than one missile threat. This is achieved by introducing ajump stochastic process whose states represent the number of missiles defeatedat a given time instant. Analysis proceeds through consideration of the sojourntimes of this stochastic process, and it is shown how consideration of thesejump times can be related to transition probabilities of the auxiliarystochastic process. The latter probabilities are then related to theprobabilities of detection and disruption of missile threats. The sum of thesesojourn times can then be used to quantify the survivability of the team at anygiven time instant. Due to the fact that there is much interest in theapplication of high energy lasers in the context of this paper, the numericalexamples will thus focus on such directed energy weapons for armoured fightingvehicle team defence.
