A Cost and Training Effectiveness Analysis (CTEA) of Moving Target Engagement Training Programs for the M16A1 Rifle

Abstract

In June 1985 a research effort was initiated to examine current Advanced Rifle Marksmanship (ARM) Training at the Fort Benning Defense Test Range (DTR). This research effort examined alternate methods of training moving target engagement. Several variations of training devices and procedures were developed and evaluated. This note provides a cost and training effectiveness analysis (CTEA) of each alternative developed for training moving target engagements. Keywords: Cost and training effectiveness analysis (CTEA), Location of miss and hit (LOMAH), M16 rifle, Marksmanship training devices, Multipurpose arcade combat simulator (MACS), Remoted Target system (RETS), Rifle marksmanship, Single lead rule, Weaponeer II.
