Tank Platoon in the Defense: Model for Analysis.

摘要

A model of the tank platoon in the defense of a preselected battle position is presented. Time sequential crewman level tasks are integrated into crew level and platoon level aggregate tasks. The model shows the crewman's reaction to his environment and his interaction with other crewmen and equipment. A portion of the model is task analyzed to develop platoon measures of performance in the defense. Factors relevant to each measure are also developed. The model structure and contextual task analysis can be applied to improve training and doctrine literature, institutional and unit training programs, training measurement and analysis, and existing computer simulations.
