Q

What simulators are required for use on Tables III-Proficiency, IV-Basic, V-Practice, and VI-Qualification?

A

Each target emplacement includes either a battlefield effects simulator (BES) (for stationary Armor targets (SAT), moving Armor targets (MAT)), or a hostile fire simulator (HFS) (for stationary Infantry targets (SIT), moving Infantry targets (MIT)). These simulators are required for use on tables III, IV, V, and VI.
