Training Support Package for Moving Target Engagement with Existing Ranges and Special Devices

Abstract

This report presents a program of instruction for the engagement of moving personnel targets with the service rifle. It was designed for use by the Army Training Center to teach Infantry One Station Unit Training (OSUT) soldiers. Instruction is situationally focused. It is oriented for application on existing ranges and facilities at Fort Benning, Georgia, in conjunction with available special training devices. Utilization of the devices described and discussed within the recommended training program will cost effectively increase targets hit on the Defense Test Range (DTR). Instructor requirements remain unchanged, but nominal increases in training time and ammunition requirements are necessary. Detailed lesson outlines and hard copy vu-graphs are included. Keywords: Advanced rifle marksmanship (ARM); Multipurpose arcade combat simulator; M16A1 rifle training; Remoted target system(RETS); Weaponeer II.
