Emergency management capability serves as an important support for the management of aerospace tracking and control equipment, significantly influencing the successful execution of mission tasks. However, current research on the design of evaluation index system for such capabilities remains insufficient. To address issues such as overly simplistic assessment criteria, based on the 4R theory of crisis management (Reduction, Readiness, Response, and Recovery) to comprehensively analyze emergency management requirements across all operational phases. Utilizing the Delphi method, an evaluation index system for aerospace tracking and control equipment emergency management capability is constructed, with the Analytic Hierarchy Process (AHP) applied to determine indicator weights. Finally, some suggestions for building the emergency management capacity of equipment are provided. The relevant results can also provide reference and guidance for evaluating emergency response capabilities of other large-scale equipment.
