Abstract: The simulator algorithm of the system consisting of a group of armed mobile platforms, which in defence of a territory against an active threat uses the synchronized swarming tactics, has been presented. The synchronized swarming concept has been introduced in order to prevent the active threat to destroy the swarming platforms one by one, reducing the probability of success of the swarm as a whole.

Keywords: swarming; armed mobile platform; synchronization; simulation; algorithm.
