A Capacitated Facility Location Approach for the Tanker Employment Problem (Paperback) (ISBN-13: 9781249595045)

Air refueling is conducted to provide rapid response, increased range, and extended airborne operations for bombers, fighters, airlift, command and control, and intelligence, surveillance, and reconnaissance aircraft. The planning and scheduling of limited tanker resources during employment operations is a major concern for Air Mobility Command (AMC). AMC does not currently have a simple tool that runs in a short amount of time to aid in planning operations. The tool developed allows AMC to input several sorties consisting of various aircraft types and armaments. Each sortie contains a base of origin, and is assumed to be attacking or patrolling in an engagement zone defined by the user.
