Statistics, Testing, and Defense Acquisition


Consider the following scenario. A new major has just rotated into a service test agency and has been assigned to oversee the operational test design and subsequent evaluation of the test results of QZ3, a major military system. The results of the test are to inform the assessment of the system’s operational readi- ness. Operational readiness is determined by the system’s performance in an operational setting, which itself can only be measured in the military contexts of training, doctrine, and the scale in which the system is to be used. Of necessity, operational testing will be limited in time, the level of realism that can be at- tained, and the quality or quantity of measurement data obtainable from what at best is an adequate approximation of the chaotic and uncontrollable environment in which the system will actually be used.
