Tank Crew Stability and Tank Gunnery Performance

Abstract

Although fairly comprehensive data on the degree of crew turbulence was provided by Larson et al., the data was collected several years ago and may not represent today's armor forces. And the effects of crew turbulence were not fully explored. Concern over the magnitude and effects of crew turbulence on tank gunnery training were expressed to ARI by numerous individuals in 1977, and research involving experimental manipulation of several degrees of turbulence was planned. In the interim this correlational research was designed and conducted in conjunction with tank crew assignment research ongoing with five armor battalions in USAREUR.
