In an effort to reduce training costs for sustaining soldier proficiency in deployed units, the U.S. Army Training and Doctrine Command (TRADOC) has identified embedded training as the preferred alternative to be considered for development of training systems used to prepare and sustain future armored vehicle crew members. Prior to full scale development, the demonstration/validation portion of the vehicle acquisition process must investigate the optimum implementation of embedded training for the next generation of armored combat vehicles. This paper reviews the general goals, and some of the challenges involved, for embedded training within the six future vehicle systems planned for the Armored Systems Modernization program; the paper focuses primarily upon the present efforts directed for developing embedded gunnery and tactical simulation into the electronics of two of these vehicles, the Block III tank and the Advanced Field Artillery System (AFAS).
