Abstract :
This paper describes closed-loop testing of the NORAD Command and Control System´s ability to perform its assigned task: provide support for CINCNORAD in directing the air defense of North America. Special techniques were required to perform this testing since human beings were an integral part of the feedback loop. System test design and results are treated.
