Lessons Learned from the Development and Transition of the Air Intercept Trainer (AIT)
Abstract
The Aircrew Training Research Division of Armstrong Laboratory conducted a study of the transition of the Air Intercept Trainer (AIT) to the pilot training community. The study was conducted to improve training technology and to better understand how to transition technology from the laboratory to the user. User groups were: Air National Guard (ANG) squadrons, Air Combat Command (ACC) training squadrons, and Air Force Reserve (AFRES) operational squadrons. This technical report documents major lessons learned about device utilization, technology design, user acceptance, training effectiveness and other issues of transition. Findings showed that the AIT was highly successful as a training device in the ANG and ACC squadrons, but was less successful in the AFRES operational squadrons.
