Single and double attacks against a system of parallel elements are analyzed. The vulnerability of each element depends on
an attacker-defender contest success function. The contest intensity may change from the first to the second attack as determined
by a contest intensity variation factor. The defender allocates its resource between deploying elements to provide redundancy,
and protecting each element. The attacker allocates its resource optimally across the two attacks, may attack a subset of
the elements in the first attack, observes which elements are destroyed in the first attack, and attacks all surviving elements
in the second attack. A minmax two period game is analyzed where the defender moves first and the attacker moves second. The
paper shows how the contest intensity variation factor affects the defense and attack strategies. |
