This book was released on 1987 with total page 48 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: In May 1987 a research effort that examined current Advanced Rifle Marksmanship (ARM) training conducted during One Station Unit Training (OSUT) at Fort Benning, georgia, was initiated. This research evaluated night fire with no illumination, normally scheduled night fire training with artificial illumination, and protective mask fire during daylight. Alternative methods of training were tested in addition to night fire training using the AN/PVS-4 night vision sight. Separate alternative training methods were tested for protective mask fire during daylight. All training procedures developed during this effort used existing range facilities and training resources. Additional resource demands were confined to increases in training time allocation and extra ammunition. Findings indicated that soldiers had extreme difficulty in hitting targets during night fire with no illumination and with artificial illumination. Results for night fire using the AN/PVS-4 night vision sight showed that soldiers were capable of hitting targets out to 300 m. Findings for protective mask fire during daylight also indicated that soldiers were capable of hitting targets out to 300 m.

This book was released on 1987 with total page 50 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Moving target engagement training is conducted on the Fort Benning Defense Test Range (DTR), which is equipped with the Remoted Target System (RETS) and uses a stationary and moving target attack/retreat scenario. In June 1985 a research effort was initiated to examine current Advanced Rifle Marksmanship (ARM) training at the DTR and to conduct research on alternative methods of training moving target engagement. Several variations of training devices and procedures were developed and evaluated. Strategy incorporating existing resources, as well as a special training devices strategy, were developing and tested. Findings indicated that both training strategies significantly increased moving targets hit by low-ability shooters from pretest to postest. In addition, both strategies resulted in more posttest moving target hits than the current training program.

Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: The Advanced Rifle Marksmanship (ARM) program existing in 1981 was analyzed and three major problems were identified: (a) limited scope of training; (b) inappropriate automatic fire and night fire training, and (c) inadequate feedback (bullet location information). An extensive analysis of Army Training and Evaluation Programs was performed for both the Infantry (ARTEP 7- 15) and the Mechanized Infantry (ARTEP 71-2). This analysis attempted to identify the most important marksmanship skills required by Infantrymen, but which had not been taught in the Basic Rifle Marksmanship program.

This book was released on 1988 with total page 76 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: This report summarizes the research on M16A1 rifle marksmanship training conducted by the Army Research Institute (ARI) at Fort Benning primarily between March 1978 and January 1983. It examines research designed to identify marksmanship training problems and to evaluate promising solutions to these problems. The overall marksmanship research led to the development and implementation of an integrated set of three training programs: basic, advanced, and unit rifle marksmanship. These programs have been approved for adoption Army-wide by the U.S. Army Infantry School (USAIS) (as proponent). Implementation efforts are documented in the areas of equipment research, target design, range modification, training aids and devices, and instructor training. The report also summarizes the major problems that must be resolved for fully effective marksmanship training. It concludes with information about current or planned research directed toward improved marksmanship instruction.

Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: An effective marksmanship program can be measured by the unit's ability to put effective fire on a target. This chapter provides a proven strategy for establishing and conducting an effective rifle marksmanship training program. The strategy begins with the progressive individual training periods taught during initial entry training (IET) and culminates with advanced rifle marksmanship (ARM) skills. Refresher training is conducted only when necessary. A Soldier's marksmanship proficiency depends on proper training and application of the basic marksmanship fundamentals. During initial marksmanship training, emphasis is placed on learning the firing fundamentals, which are taught in four phases-preliminary marksmanship instruction (PMI), downrange feedback, field firing, and advanced firing exercises. This prepares Soldiers for advanced optic and laser training for combat-type collective exercises and real-world deployments.
Download or read book Basic Rifle Marksmanship Training with the Laser Marksmanship Training System written by Joseph D. Hagman and published by . This book was released on 2000 with total page 28 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: "This research compared the relative impact of two approaches for training Basic Rifle Marksmanship (BRM). One hundred and eighty four One-Station Unit Training (OSUT) infantry trainees (i.e., the experimental group) trained under a U.S. Army Reserve (USAR)-developed, device-based (i.e., the Beamhit Laser Marksmanship Training System LMTS) approach, and 202 infantry trainees (i.e., the control group) trained under the standard U.S. Army Infantry School BRM program of instruction. Results revealed that the experimental group outperformed the control group on shot grouping, weapon zeroing, and known-distance firing. No between-group differences were found, however, for record fire qualification scores or for performance during pop-up target engagement practice periods leading up to qualification. The implications of these findings for initial marksmanship training are discussed along with plans for follow-up USAR-sponsored research to assess (a) the impact of LMTS-based training on sustainment performance, and (b) the feasibility of using LMTS-based performance to predict live-fire qualification scores."--Stinet.
