Navigator training programs and syllabi have gone through numerous evolutions to provide students with the requisite knowledge, skills, and experience to enter combat crew training. Similarly, flight simulators have been the focus of many Air Force modernization programs designed to enhance simulator capabilities across a wide spectrum. State-of-the-art technology has brought about advanced flight simulators with sophisticated visual systems, highly realistic crew training and enhanced instructor roles. Cost considerations aside, questions still remain as to whether modern flight simulators are, or will be, feasibly capable of adapting students to the simulators are or will be feasibly capable of adapting students to the physical and psychological stresses of flight, or adequately preparing them to enter combat crew training. This research specifically examines the potential feasibility of an all-simulator program for the Tanker, Transport, and Bomber track of Specialized Undergraduate Navigator Training.

A one-year contract effort was performed in response to the USAF Air Training Command Request for Personnel Research No. 75-27, 'Tanker/Transport/Bomber (TTB) Lead-In Training.' The effort accomplished the following: (a) identification of training requirements for the TTB phase of a proposed dual-track UPT program. These requirements cover those tasks which are common to the B-52, KC-135, C-130, C-141, C-9, and C-5 aircraft, (b) development of ways of estimating the training benefits to be derived by MAC and SAC from pilot lead-in training on these common tasks, (c) development of a method for determining the generalizability of any subset of TTB lead-in training tasks to the entire domain of TTB training tasks, and (d) development of an approach to the measurement of aircrew performance in the TTB training environment. This study effort was prerequisite to the Air Training Command development of a syllabus for the TTB track of a Specialized Undergraduate Pilot Training System (SUPTS). (Author).
The Air Training Command was requested to develop and examine alternatives for replacement of the aging T-37 along with options which provide a more economically trained graduate. This study reports the results of that examination. Training requirements for UPT (Undergraduate Pilot Training) unchanged in the future, with the emphasis remaining on the acquisition of basic flying skills. A specialized pilot training system is required to effectively teach the 30 identified training requirements. Procurement of new aircraft is required to replace the T-37 and inaugurate specialized pilot training. T-38 fleet life can be extended ten years by conversion to a specialized UPT system. Acquisition and life cycle costs favor a three aircraft specialized UPT system; a primary aircraft replacement for the T-37, a new TTB (Tanker-Transport-Bomber) trainer, and use of the T-38 as a FAIR (Fighter-Attack-Interceptor-Reconnaissance) trainer.
This study is an analysis of the benefits and constraints associated with implementing Air Training Command's proposed specialized Weapons Systems Officer (WSO) training concept in the U.S. Air Force Undergraduate Navigator Training (UNT) program. The investigation defines the costs of the proposed program in both UNT and advanced courses, analyzes the impacts on aircrew readiness, and explores the personnel resource management constraints which would result from a departure from current 'universally assignable' concepts of managing aircrew personnel. The general conclusion of this study is that specialized training offers potential cost savings in training WSOs to the current minimum levels of proficiency and that these savings may be reinvested in operational training programs to increase proficiency over that achieved under the current program. Additionally, the study reveals that the potential adverse management consequences can be accommodated.
