Army National Guard Aviation training

developed into four main programs during

FY 1975: Instrument, Nap-of-the Earth

(NOE), gunner and night tactical training.

The requirement that all ARNG aviators

be instrument qualified by the end of FY

1975 was over 78 percent complete at the

end of FY 1975. This program has

improved the capabilities and readiness of

every aviation unit in the ARNG.

The NOE flight training program which

was announced during FY 1974 began to

take form during early FY 1975 and

continues to be a major program for units

that would operate near the forward edge

of battle areas in a mid- to high-intensity

war. Many of the states have made

unusually rapid progress with this

program, and the safety record luring this

Intensive management will continue to be

readiness by assuring that assets made

available are distributed to units by priority

and that the maximum readiness possible

is achieved in the ARNG with emphasis in

Another benefit being derived from

Project REDFRAM is that the Guard is

gaining a far better equalization of

equipment distribution. Critically short

assets are better spread within units and

throughout the United States which

facilitates the hand-receipting of critically
