What does AGT I include for Stinger training proficiency?

The Stinger training proficiency test (STPT) is a critical component of AGT I because it serves as a standardized method to evaluate a trainee’s proficiency in using the Stinger missile system. This test ensures that individuals have the necessary skills to effectively operate the system in various scenarios, demonstrating their understanding of the equipment and their ability to perform under pressure.

By focusing on the STPT, the program emphasizes the importance of assessment and validation in the training process, allowing for the identification of areas that may need additional focus or improvement. This structured testing approach is essential for maintaining a high level of operational readiness among personnel who will be using the Stinger system in real-world situations.

In contrast, while aerial engagement drills, team live-fire exercises, and simulated ground engagements play important roles in overall training, they do not specifically represent the standardized proficiency evaluation that the STPT provides.
