A study was made to assemble data relevant to ACV operator training and to provide estimates of operator training requirements. The following tasks were undertaken: description of ACV's and vehicle subsystems; identification of ACV application; description of ACV controls and displays; identification of natural and induced environmental factors; operator task descriptions; description of handling characteristics and techniques for U. S. Navy Hydroskimmer (SKMR-1); and estimates of skill and training requirements. The results of this study indicate that training requirements will vary with vehicle size, configuration, controls, mission, and operating environment. Among the areas effecting operation of ACV's and personnel training, the following appear to be in particular need of research and development attention: electronic equipment for navigation purposes; standardization and optimization of operator's controls and displays; and empirical determination of personnel training and training equipment requirements.
