Aircrew Combat Preparation Training

Abstract

This report is the result of a study to forecast future technologies and systems required for optimally conducting aircrew ancillary training in the next century. The study findings are based on the review of regulations, documents and related publications, and on the interviews of nearly 50 pilots, instructor pilots, and training personnel at Tactical Air Force Major Commands, fighter wings, and air warfare centers. This volume provides a comprehensive description of the existing US Air Force Aircrew Combat Preparatory Training system and an assessment of that system's operations. It also forecasts future operational requirements and their impact and identifies areas of concern. Long term training needs are defined from these areas of concern and suggested courses of action are discussed. A developmental roadmap is included that describes the actions necessary to resolve any technology shortfalls.
