Research abstract
TKC International LLC will employ its unique and innovative concepts for analyzing and modeling Submarine Force capabilities and technologies. TKC's Wells Doctrine, named after its inventor and PI, has been translated into a weapons-target centric modeling approach for submarines. TKC's model stands back from traditional platform centric approaches and analyses key data sources from the perspective of the end game, weapons on targets. TKC's concepts enable submarine build costs, through life ownership costs, including manpower, training, and operating costs, and R&D costs, to be put in a true context of total ownership. TKC weighs and measures submarine capabilities and technologies in terms of both economic cost effectiveness and, equally critically, in terms of weapons-target effectiveness.
