Tactical Engagement Simulation Training Techniques: Indirect Fire Simulation Procedures.

Abstract

An integral part of tactical engagement simulation training is the simulation of indirect fire weapons and their effects. Mortar and artillery fire represent important sources of firepower to the tactical commander; the opportunity must be given for him to learn the proper employment of this combat asset. The indirect fire simulation Training Circular which comprises the major part of this document is the result of research on improved and expanded procedures for integrating all aspects of indirect fire simulation into tactical engagement simulation trianing. Most of the indirect fire simulation procedures described in the Training Circular have been tried out in the field (usually as part of a larger test effort); those procedures not subjected to test in the field are logical extensions of procedures for smaller size tactical units.
