Identification and Ranking the Components of Barraging High-Altitude Management in Air Rescue Operation in Crisis Situations

What has been discussed in this article is the identification and ranking of the dimensions and components of barraging high-altitude Management in Air rescue operations in crisis situations. Our country is one of the countries that face various crises, such as earthquakes, wars, epidemics of contagious disease, etc. Among the crises that have been encountered so far were the Procrustean wars. One of the missions of air operations is to support the fighting forces with C-130 planes. Air barraging has long been carried out at low altitude and at low speed to support the ground forces, but due to the strong defense ring and the possibility of firing missiles at the aircraft at low altitude, the possibility of vulnerability increases. To achieve this purpose, first study documents and research background. Then a questionnaire was developed the Delphi method with a range of 5 Likert options and was distributed in two stages among 26 experts of airlines and effective high-altitude precipitation antecedents in air operation and Analysis with SPSS software. Then were identified 6 dimensions and 26 components, The content validity index of CVR was confirmed and the Cronbach's alpha coefficient in all components was above 0.7, which shows acceptable reliability. To prioritize the identified solutions, a hierarchical analysis questionnaire was prepared and distributed among the skilled staff of an airline. The results of the questionnaires were analyzed in Expert Choice software and the effective high-altitude precipitation antecedents in air operation were prioritized in six dimensions: Emergency conditions, weather conditions, launch point, parachute and load. Finally, according to the research results, applicable solutions were presented based on 6 dimensions.
