Commanders' Integrated Training Tool for the Close Combat Tactical Trainer: Design, Prototype Development, and Lessons Learned

摘要

This report describes the design of the Commander's Integrated Training Tool (CITT) for the Close Combat Tactical Trainer (CCTT), a system of armored vehicle manned module simulators and workstations that allows units to train collective armor and infantry tasks at the platoon through battalion task force level. CITT will allow commanders and other unit trainers to select, create, or modify structured training exercises for use when the unit trains using the CCTT. Although the project focused on the CITT design, it also included the development and refinement of a CITT prototype in standalone and distributed in tern et accessible versions. Additionally, the project included the development of an information overview presented in the form of videotapes and included in the CITT prototype, and the development of an implementation strategy and fielding plan. This report describes the activities involved in the development of the listed products along with the lessons learned during project completion.
