Claim One:
1. A method for decision support of a combat object ( 1 ) in a combat situation comprising the steps of: a) detecting ( 3 ) an enemy object ( 2 ) comprising at least one of an enemy combat aircraft or an enemy station, such that a plurality of characteristic parameters of the enemy object ( 2 ) is determined, b) calculating ( 4 ) at least one quality factor for at least one combat sensor of the combat object ( 1 ), the quality factor referring to own sensor quality, when detecting an enemy object ( 2 ), wherein each quality factor is configured for indicating identification ability of a combat sensor, and calculating ( 4 ) at least one signature factor for at least one enemy sensor of the enemy object ( 2 ) based on a predetermined model, the signature factor referring to own signature, exposed to the same enemy object and its sensors, wherein each signature factor is configured for indicating identification ability of an enemy sensor, c) allocating ( 5 ) each quality factor calculated in the previous step b) to each combat sensor and allocating ( 5 ) each signature factor calculated in the previous step b) to each enemy sensor, and d) controlling ( 6 ) each combat sensor against the enemy object ( 2 ) based on the result of the previous step c), wherein the controlling is configured for decision support of the combat object ( 1 ) such that the combat object ( 1 ) adjusts its appearance in the combat situation, by a trade-off between increasing the quality factor and decreasing the signature factor, without revealing the combat object ( 1 ).
