Multiple-Station Range Target System Operations Manual
Abstract
The Multiple-Station Range Target System (RTS) is a high-fidelity engagement simulator. Short Range Air Defense (SHORAD) and Forward Area Air Defense System (FAADS) crews employ their actual weapons in simulated or live- fire engagement of subscale, fixed-wing and rotary-wing aircraft. RTS permits training and evaluation of individuals, crews, and platoons; provides detailed crew performance scoring and feedback; and can be moved from one location to another and rapidly deployed for a new training exercise or test application. This operations manual describes the major RTS components (targets, range control station, data acquisition station, position-location station, and laser ballistics simulator) ; RTS set-up procedures; RTS system preparation and installation procedures; and RTS operations, maintenance, and supply. Two separately published annexes to this manual exist. Annex 1 describes the Pop-Up Target System operations and maintenance. Annex 2 describes the Flying Target System operations and maintenance. These three manuals contain the minimum documentation needed to support RTS. Short Range Air Defense (SHORAD), Stinger, Engagement simulation, Chaparral, FAAD, Vulcan.
