Abstract :
A development strategy for transitioning a legacy radar modeling system to a fully object oriented standards based architecture is presented The strategy involves a series of model “Builds” that preserves the legacy investment (including VV&A), while addressing the highest priority customer needs for HLA and JMASS compliant modeling products. The strategy emphasizes collaboration within the M&S community to foster model commonality, minimize the number of legacy models, and reduce organizational M&S costs
