U.S. Navy surface combatant crews undergo extensive and rigorous training to operate their ships. The training needs are challenging for crews on DDG-51-class destroyers, the most numerous ships among the surface ship combatants, and specifically for engineers on these craft. Much of this training is done underway, but most can be done in port or on simulators at considerable savings. The Director, Assessment Division (OPNAV N81) therefore asked the RAND Corporation to examine the training requirements for DDG-51 engineering watchstanders, specifically, how available engineering simulation technology might be adapted for use by DDG-51-class ship crews and what policies and resources could help increase the use of simulators for engineering training. This monograph reports our findings. It should interest those concerned with the training and readiness of Navy surface combatants, including members of the Fleet Forces Command, the Type Commander, and the broader defense operational planning and budgeting community.
