The purpose of this effort was to develop modifications on an SMK-23 Visual Simulator Attachment for determining the training value of various types of visual simulation system configurations. This report documents the required modifications to the SMK-23 television system to convert it from projected field sequential color operation to projected high resolution monochrome. Also documented is the replacement of the projection system with a high resolution monochrome lens-monitor system. A comparative evaluation of the original SMK-23 television system and the two modified display systems is presented. An improved SMK-23 model lighting system is described which enhances the television display contrast and yet uses only 20% of the original light power. (Author).

For every weapons system being developed, the U.S. Department of Defense (DOD) must make a critical decision: Should the system go forward to full-scale production? The answer to that question may involve not only tens of billions of dollars but also the nation's security and military capabilities. In the milestone process used by DOD to answer the basic acquisition question, one component near the end of the process is operational testing, to determine if a system meets the requirements for effectiveness and suitability in realistic battlefield settings. Problems discovered at this stage can cause significant production delays and can necessitate costly system redesign. This book examines the milestone process, as well as the DOD's entire approach to testing and evaluating defense systems. It brings to the topic of defense acquisition the application of scientific statistical principles and practices.
