Line of Sight-Forward (Heavy) Surrogate Assessment

Abstract

The briefing called for a manpower and personnel integration (MANPRINT) assessment of the operability and supportability of the lines of sight-forward (heavy) gun-missile or hybrid system. Based on Manpower, Personnel, and Training assessment of one prototype or surrogate system from two manufactures, it was found that operability and support requirements could be met by the anticipated transition MOS, 16R. Human factors engineering, system safety, and health hazard evaluations, while identifying specific areas of noncompliance and risk, uncovered no features in the prototype systems that invalidate the feasibility of the hybrid concept. Specific suggestions were made to help guide the planned LOS-F (H) Candidate Evaluation. Keywords: Human factors; Manpower; Personnel Training; Health hazards; System safety; Combat development.
