Evaluation of Dismounted Infantry Simulation Technologies (E-DIST).

Abstract

This report describes the assessment of five simulators that train dismounted infantry tasks. Subject matter experts (SMEs) worked through leader, soldier, or team scenarios and rated how well each simulator supported performance of subtasks related to military operations in an urban environment. The SMEs also identified characteristics to be considered for future simulators and modifications that would improve the current systems. The recommendations are the basis for characteristics to be considered in the Training Device Requirement for a Dismounted Infantry Module in the Close Combat Tactical Trainer.
