Program/System Constraints Analysis Report.
Abstract
The development and implementation of a training system is carried out in the presence of certain constraints which impact the effectiveness or efficiency of the training. These constraints include operating policies and regulations, existing facilities and equipment, characteristics of the student population, and personnel availability. The task of the contractor team was to investigate and identify constraints likely to affect the F-16 instructional system design and describe system design restrictions imposed by them. Such information will be used by the contractor team in designing the F-16 instructional system to accommodate those constraints identified, and by USAF/TAC agencies in an effort to mitigate the effects of these constraints whenever/wherever possible. Such efforts should results in increased communication between the contractor team and USAF/TAC agencies in coordinating possible changes. Some constraints identified such as weather, range availability, and air space are 'hard' and must be accommodated by the training system. Other constraints such as USAF/TAC regulations and policies, trainer delivery schedules, or student flow could be changed to be more compatible with the training program. Finally, some constraints such as facilities and media available are within the scope of the training system and can be modified. As a result of this study analysis, the F-16 ISD effort has been able to better plan the training program within existing system constraints.
