Army Science Board Ad Hoc Subgroup on Testing of Electronic Systems.

Abstract

This investigation should include an assessment of relevant testing facilities, including TRI-TAC's Joint Test Facility at Fort Huachuca, the Automated Systems Test Bed at Fort Hood, and plans for the Modular Automated Integrated Systems Interoperability Test and Evaluation (MAINSITE) System. The adequacy of facilities, test equipment, procedures and plans to support testing of ASAS, PLRS, and TACFIRE should be addressed. In addition, suggestions for satisfactorily operationally testing future software systems would be appreciated. The initial meetings of the Subgroup, devoted primarily to overviews of test organizations, facilities and approaches, were held in the Washington area. Subsequently, to engage in discussions with personnel directly involved in Army testing, visits were made to the Combined Arms Test Facility, Fort Hood; The Missile Command, Redstone Arsenal; the White Sands Missile Range; and the Electronic Proving Ground, Fort Huachuca.
