Preface

This manual presents an overview of current, doctrinally approved tank combat training devices. The intent is to familiarize the user with armor-related devices and how they can be used to train and test tank gunnery or tactical skills. This manual is designed for use with FM 17-12-series manuals and the technical manuals or other resource materials for each device.

FM 17-12-7 was developed as a ready reference for tank commanders, platoon sergeants, platoon leaders, master gunners, S3s, and the chain of command of armor units. From this manual, the user can select devices that will best support the type of planned gunnery/tactical training at home station.
