The purpose of the engineering tests was to determine the suitability of the TOW production trainer for US Army use under a variety of temperate zone conditions and environmental limits defined primarily by the Small Development Requirement(SDR). For training in practice loading, tracking, and firing, the trainer design is satisfactory. Scoring, while not meeting the SDR as stated, does qualify satisfactory gunners and provides a needed and safe means for screening gunners. It is recommended that the deficiencies and as many as possible of the shortcomings be corrected. Certain changes in the training literature are also recommended.
