This TC is the keystone publication for the Army ATM series of publications and establishes the requirements for a unit ATP. Based on the battle-focused training principles outlined in ADP 7-0 and the Combined Arms Training Strategy (CATS), it will help commanders at all levels develop, manage, and administer a comprehensive ATP. The ATP is an assembly of training requirements organized to fulfill the broad, overall training goals of aviation commanders supervising rated, nonrated, and noncrewmember Soldiers on their staff. Rated crewmembers are defined in AR 600-105; nonrated crewmembers and noncrewmembers are defined in AR 600-106. It eliminates FAC 3 authorizations in modification table of organization and equipment battalions and below for RCMs and prescribes the responsibilities of those tasked with implementing individual, crew, and collective training. While acknowledging the required involvement of commanders during all phases of training and evaluation; it emphasizes proficiency and PC requirements for all aviators but particularly company commanders, tracked aviation warrant officers, and junior officers. As stated in AR 95-1, the ATP will be in accordance with it and the appropriate ATMs.
