Suppose further that each attacking re-entry vehicle has a 70 percent single-shot
kill probability. (The figure of 70 percent is notional but subjectively reasonable.) The figure shows the price to attack, as a function of the size of the ICBM force, for destroying all but 20 of the ICBM silos.
The weapon system has excellent electronic counter measures and high
kill probability. The system is fully capable of providing low to medium altitude area air defence to national and strategic assets, field formations and maneuvering forces.
The new missile has high single shot
kill probability, which enhances its accuracy.
ASTRA is India's first BVR Air-to-Air Missile indigenously designed and developed by DRDO, possessing high Single Shot
Kill Probability (SSKP) making it highly reliable.
Air and missile defence is often a matter that involves more than one system, a layered defence being definitely the best way to increase the
kill probability against an incoming threat.
The three independent darts increase the
kill probability. The minimum system range is 300 m, at which point the darts separate.
Today the single shot
kill probability is about 90 percent.
On the other hand, it has a far lower single-shot
kill probability against a modern ground-attack aircraft with a defensive aids suite and armour plating.
Under the conditions of the engagements, the
kill probability should have been 96-99%.
Each firing has an estimated single-shot
kill probability in excess of 75%.
The
kill probability increased from 0.25 (for the Strela-2M) to 0.32, featured better resistance to countermeasures haze, snow, and rain--all the while being simpler to use.
