01
Small, large, and random missions generated to the manual — deflection 0–6399, elevation 800–1511, saddle tracked on every lay, and a home reset that puts the gun back on initial data. Practice the changes the gunner’s exam actually tests.
02
Tap Gun Up to log the round; double-tap to stop clean — no ghost entries. Every time lands against color-coded exam standards, with grouped history so you can watch the trend.
03
175+ doctrine-verified questions across 60mm, 81mm, 120mm, ammunition, general knowledge, and IMLC — every answer cited to the source publication, verified against TC 3-22.90. Multiple choice with scoring, swipeable flashcards, and a practice-missed mode that drills what you got wrong.
04
The full 5-station examination per TC 3-22.90, Chapter 8 — run from the evaluator's phone. Type the candidate roster, rotate every gunner through each station with timed trials and no-credit checklists, and walk away with a completed DA Form 5964 for every candidate. The clipboard, stopwatch, and scorecard in one tool.
A dark, glove-friendly interface built for the gun line: deflection and elevation in, fire mission out, timer running. Viewport-fitted with no scrolling mid-drill — nothing between you and the next Gun Up.
The gun line is where the time counts — but the reps happen in the barracks, the motor pool, and the back of the truck. Run a drill or a ten-question set anywhere, and show up to the range already fast.
Speed on the gun isn’t talent. It’s reps — and the standard is written down.
