Book excerpt: A field experiment was carried out to determine the relative effectiveness of REALTRAIN (an engagement simulation training system) and conventional training that did not employ engagement simulation. Eight Armor/ Anti-Armor units were given a pretraining tactical test, 5 days of tactical training using either REALTRAIN or conventional methods, and a posttraining test. In addition, test units participated in a series of exercises in which REALTRAIN and conventional units opposed one another. Results showed that, in general, REALTRAIN units improved more than conventional units and achieved higher performance levels.
