This thesis presents a case study of the fielding and employment of the M2 Bradley Fighting Vehicle to provide lessons learned for training K21 Infantry Fighting Vehicle units in the South Korean Army. Through an analysis of the challenges involved in training M2 Bradley Fighting Vehicle units, the thesis found 21 potential training challenges for training K21 Infantry Fighting Vehicle units. The 21 training challenges were logically grouped into five categories: training doctrine, mounted gunnery training, dismounted infantry training, training support, and leader training. The thesis then prioritized these five categories of training challenges based on an analysis of the literature and interviews with subject matter experts. As a result, it identified three salient training challenges that are directly related to the K21 Infantry Fighting Vehicle units: training doctrine, mounted gunnery training, and dismounted infantry training. The thesis analyzes these salient training challenges in-depth, and suggests possible solutions for them.
