Zusammenfassung:This report describes the methodology used to design and develop crew drills for armor weapon systems. In the design of the crew drills training approach emphasis was placed on incorporating the concept of dry-fire training in a low cost environment. Also included were concepts for program management, task performance and evaluation, and quality control. Applying these concepts, a set of tank gunnery crew drills was developed for the M1 General Abrams, M60A3, and M60A1 (AOS) tanks. Specific task requirements were detailed for each weapon system by crew position and phases of target engagement. Task behaviors considered critical to crew performance were identified for evaluation.
