Skill Level 10 Operations and Unit Maintenance Skills: An Examination of Tactical Unmanned Vehicle (TUV) Soldier-Marine Capabilities.

Abstract

An analysis was performed to identify specific skills required to successfully perform operations and unit maintenance tasks for the future tactical unmanned vehicle (TUV) and to determine if U.S. Army soldiers and U.S. Marines with a skill level of 10 have those skills. This analysis was performed by the Human Research and Engineering Directorate of the U.S. Army Research Laboratory at the behest of the Program Manager Unmanned Ground Vehicles/Systems. Military occupational specialties examined included U.S. Army infantryman (11B), cavalry scout (l9D), and the Marine Corps rifleman (0300). System-required operations and unit maintenance functions and tasks were identified. Soldier-marine operations and unit maintenance skills were compared to these tasks. Results of the analysis show that of 209 operations skills required by the TUV system, 82 were mismatched because of a higher skills requirement, untrained system-specific skills, or a combination of both. Additionally, all 25 unit maintenance tasks were identified as requiring system-specific training.
