Combat Job Requirements for the Air Cavalry Aeroscout Pilot and Aeroscout Observer

Abstract

The objectives of the research were to formulate and describe the skills and knowledges required for combat job performance for the aeroscout pilot and aeroscout observer in an Air Cavalry Unit, and to determine how much emphasis should be placed on each skill or knowledge area during training. Job inventory lists were administered to 14 combat-experienced aeroscout pilots and 15 aeroscout observers. The respondents judged each skill or knowledge item in terms of its importance for job performance in combat. This information provides a basis for organizing content and subject emphasis of formal training programs, and provides school personnel and field commanders with a basis for evaluation and development of such.
