Abstract:

The data guide was developed to aid the weapon system project manager PM in procuring the minimum but complete set of data required for training device development and to assure timely delivery of that data. The guide is not intended to deal with training devices for weapon systems for which data and performance characteristics are not defined or established until the system is approaching production or in production. An example of this type of training device is a flight trainer. AR 1000-1 requires that training devices be available for evaluation as part of the total system during full-scale engineering development FSED. Achieving this objective requires concurrent development of the weapon system and training devices. If training devices are not ready during FSED, the result may be a delay in approval for weapon system production. Programs that have attempted concurrent development have encountered problems, particularly with data procurement. The data guide will help the project manager avoid these difficulties.
