Study Notes

Cough Function

Enables crew to perform critical combat skills.

Exercise Scoring

Gunnery and combat matrix exercises are scored based on criteria in TC3-20.

Matrix Progression

Cruise through the matrix by successfully completing exercises.
If a crew fails an exercise, they remain on that exercise.
Repeated failure may require special purpose exercises.

Special Purpose Exercises

15 special purpose exercises are available in the library.

Initial Integration

After initial integration, the training manager effectively integrates CoFT into the annual unit gunnery training plan.

Crew Performance Observation

The situation monitor display screen allows the IO to observe crew performance during training at the crew station.

IO Account Deletion

Steps for deleting an IO account:
- Log in as SIO.
- Select "Record management" from the bottom.
- Select "Instructor" tab at the top.
- Select the IO to be deleted.
- Confirm deletion.
