Abstract

The specific objectives of this research were to evaluate the relationship between gunner's and tank commander's: (1) scores on a series of potentially predictive paper-and-pencil tests and main-gun Tank Table performance; (2) intermediate tank gunnery training task performance and main- gun Tank Table performance; (3) composite scores and their performance on the main-gun Tank Tables ; and (4) to evaluate the relationship between aptitude test scores and driver performance as measured by driver's ranking within their platoon.
