Analysis of Gunnery Training for the Bradley Infantry Fighting Vehicle

Abstract

This report examined areas of potential improvement to gunnery training evident during the initial stage of introduction of the Bradley Infantry Fighting Vehicle to U.S. Army units. The analysis consisted of a synopsis of available literature on gunnery requirements and tasks; an overview of then-current training practices, programs of instruction, and training resources; and consideration of available and projected training devices. This analysis provided a basis for selection of specific topics for further research to aid in the development of gunnery training programs, gunnery rules and procedures, and approaches to the evaluation and refinement of gunnery training devices.
