This paper briefly analyses the broader framework of requirements for an imaging simulation system, in the 0.4 to 14 µm spectral bands. An existing imaging simulation system, OSSIM, is used to evaluate the identified key requirements for accurately simulating the missile-aircraft engagement scenario. Parameters considered include signature spectral colour ratio, spatial shape, kinematics, temporal behaviour, as well as the effect of the atmosphere and background. From this analysis the significance and relevance of the modelled signature elements are reviewed, thereby confirming the key requirements for simulating the missile-aircraft engagement.
