The validity of the Link-Miles driver training simulator was investigated for tracked vehicles in use with the Dutch Army. Transfer of training, behavioral validity and required training time could be assessed for four different driving tasks, based on the performance of experienced as well as inexperienced subjects. It is concluded that the simulator is to be regarded as a valuable training aid, provided that: (1) a number of technical imperfections are corrected; (2) the users' know-how with regard to possibilities and limitations of the simulator is increased; and (3) the demands made on the instructors and the contents of the instruction program are reconsidered, as well as the way the simulator is used in the context of the complete military training program.
