Book excerpt: This report reviews research on use of the Laser Marksmanship Training System (LMTS) to support small-arms marksmanship training and live-fire performance prediction. In general, the findings to date indicate that (a) an LMTS established rifle battlesight zero should not be used for record fire qualification without prior live-fire zero confirmation, (b) LMTS is capable of supporting effective initial entry, as well as sustainment, rifle marksmanship training although further research is needed to provide a definitive conclusion in regard to the latter, (c) LMTS based performance can accurately predict the likelihood of both rifle and pistol live-fire qualification, and (d) these predictions provide an associated set of empirically derived, live-fire performance standards needed to support the implementation of competency-based small- arms training with LMTS as well as the use of LMTS for validating previous live-fire qualification performance when outdoor range facilities are not readily available or when mission requirements dictate.
