AMSAA was requested to provide an independent third party analysis of TRADOC's Training Effectiveness Analysis-TOW (TEA-TOW) live firing data when neither the tester nor the TOW Program Manager'S Office agreed on the cause of the large missile excursions and reduced frequency of hit. By making use of the AMSAA TOW missile simulation it is concluded that the missile excursions were the result of gunner tracking errors in all but one case. The excursions in flight 2407 are not the result of gunner tracking error. In addition, these flight data are compared with the simulated trajectories to demonstrate that the AMSAA TOW missile simulation is a valid representation of the real system especially when engaging the accelerating target.
