Abstract

This paper aims to benchmark the United States' LRIP, the country's initial production policy, and provide a Korean version of such policy which reflects the circumstances of the country's weapon system research & development(R&D) and acquisition procedures. The research suggests measures to improve the country's initial production policy in a direction that the policy could execute two stage continuously: (1) employment test & evaluation(OT&E), conducted on prototypes during the development stage, and (2) field employment tests(FT), conducted on initial products during the production stage. In addition, the research provides an equation calculating the optimal number of initial test products to be produced, applying statistical theories of t-distribution. The research aims to be used a reference to calculate the optimal number of initial products to be produced for testing in order to improve future national defense acquisition systems and the stable R&D of weapons systems.

본 논문은 미국의 초도생산제도인 LRIP을 우리나라 무기체계 연구개발 획득절차 실정에 맞도록 적용한 한국형 초도생산제도에 대한 연구이다. 초도생산제도는 개발 단계에서 시제품을 대상으로 수행하는 운용시험평가와 양산단계에서 초도생산품을 대상으로 수행하는 야전운용시험을 연속적으로 수행하여 초도생산시험 단계에서 충분히 야전에서의 성능 충족여부를 점검하고, 이후에 안정적으로 후속양산에 진입할 수 있도록 제도개선 방안을 연구하였다. 또한 초도생산 시험수량을 고가의 무기체계 특성을 고려 국방 모델링 시뮬레이션에서 반복횟수를 산출하는 t분포를 이용한 통계학적 이론을 적용하여 시험수량 산출식을 제시하였으며, 향후 국방 획득체계 개선과 안정적 무기체계 연구개발을 위한 최적의 초도생산 시험수량 산출에 대한 연구자료로 활용하고자 한다.
