It revises and extends that analysis in a number of ways: (1) It more accurately fits the model parameters using linear regression; (2) It considers the data from the entire campaign; and (3) it adds in air sortie data. In contrast to previous results, it concludes by showing that neither the Lanchester linear or Lanchester square laws fit the data. A new form of the Lanchester equations emerges with a physical interpretation.1 - 22 page(s)application/pdfenIn CopyrightArticle - Refereed45
