Summary: Army procurement Combat readiness Computer assisted instruction Cost effectiveness analysis Defense contingency planning Military personnel Military training Product evaluation Testing Training utilization Interoperability Army Close Combat Tactical Trainer Acquisition Plan Army Combined Arms Tactical Training System Congress has supported increased use of simulation technology but has had some concerns about the Defense Department's (DOD) management in this area. This report describes the evolving coordination of simulation activities under the auspices of the Defense Modeling and Simulation Office. Specifically, GAO reviews the Army's acquisition plan for the Close Combat Tactical Trainer--a simulation system to train armor and mechanized infantry forces--to determine whether it provides for (1) high-level management oversight, (2) system interoperability, and (3) adequate integration of the system with more traditional forms of training for greater cost-effectiveness. |
