In the OODA loop, you don’t usually get paid for the observe and orient work. So if you’re in OO-dominant mode for too long you’ll run out of money unless you have a lot of capital. Conversely hand-to-mouth existence is all DA, no OO. Capital (=PE) levels predict OO-dominance.

Going out on a limb here, but I wonder if Boyd had such usage in mind.

He absolutely did. OODA theory came out of E-M theory which is all PE/KE dynamics. OODA was an attempt to deal with the fast transients paradox: better planes by E-M theory losing to worse planes. The explanation was better OO=faster transients.

The way I remember it, Boyd said it was the faster hydraulic actuators on American A/C that allowed faster DA. Of course he did prioritize things like bubble canopies for OO. The F-16 is pure OODA.

Actuator speed affects OO too since you can compensate for poor visibility by reorienting for a better look before reorienting further for a better maneuver. I don’t think there’s a simple 1:1 hardware to mindware mapping
