Communications training -- the key to victory? The history of warfare is littered with episodes in which communications -- or the lack of them -- have determined the outcome of a battle. In the days when messages were delivered by runners or horsemen, the failure to get vital information through could be excused, while signalling by flags, bugles or lamps later improved the chances of conveying instructions. (Simulation Approach).	Walters, Brian		997
Driving simulators -- a true cost saver: for countries where fuel costs are negligible, the case for driving simulators may not be immediately obvious, although operating real vehicles such as a tank or other armoured fighting vehicle will certainly be more expensive than using a simulator. (Training).	Walters, Brian		1833
First F-16 CCIP kits. (Digest).			223
Friend or foe? -- training is essential for survival: split-second decisions can spare the lives of a friendly aircrew or result in oblivion for aircraft regarded as legitimate targets. Those onboard a warship or perceived to be a tempting target of opportunity on the battlefield are no less dependent upon the right decision being taken by a pilot. (Simulation Approach).	Walters, Brian		907
JSF X-35B up and gone. (Digest).			156
Night vision technology update: recent international developments in night vision technologies have followed the twin paths of image intensification (12) and thermal. One significant change in recent years, however, has been the convergence of these traditionally separate paths as manufacturers work on a range of developments targeting the tactical `fusion' of both 12 and thermal images.

Radio families on the tactical scene: the decades-long trend toward building complete families of tactical radio sets has created a veritable warehouse of choices from which any country's army can build its communication needs.	Keggler, Johnny		2747
See but survive: air-defence radar: surveillance radars are the primary sensors of any modern air-defence system, but are also its most vulnerable component.	Richardson, Doug		3242
The UAV as sensor platform -- from pioneer to global hawk: the development of UAVs (unmanned aerial vehicles) has witnessed some important successes, but also many failures, and much remains to be accomplished. Armed services want real-time imagery, a quantum reduction in drone attrition rate and operators who do not need pilot ratings. Users also need to decide who is to receive UAV imagery and how it is exploited. (Complete Guide).	Braybrook, Roy		7429
