Abstract. Most modern military forces have embraced simulation as an effective
and cost-efficient means of preparing and training for military operations.
While there is now a well-developed military simulation industry, and
strong anecdotal evidence of the benefits of simulations abounds, solid
evidence of benefits, and monetary savings accruing, is problematic. This
paper provides a basis for demonstrating the benefits of simulation
in a military environment. The paper describes current initiatives to
define the benefits of simulation in military forces, suggests a
possible methodology or framework for measuring benefits, and provides brief
details of evidence of benefits, as realized by US military
forces.
