This edited book presents an array of approaches on how human
factors theory and research addresses the challenges associated
with combat identification. Special emphasis is placed on reducing
human error that leads to fratricide, which is the unintentional
death or injury of friendly personnel by friendly weapons during an
enemy engagement. Although fratricide has been a concern since
humans first engaged in combat operations, it gained prominence
during the Persian Gulf War. To reduce fratricide, advances in
technological approaches to enhance combat identification (e.g.,
Blue Force Tracker) should be coupled with the application of human
factors principles to reduce human error. The book brings together
a diverse group of authors from academic and military researchers
to government contractors and commercial developers to provide a
single volume with broad appeal. Human Factors Issues in Combat
Identification is intended for the larger human factors community
within academia, the military and other organizations that work
with the military such as government contractors and commercial
developers as well as others interested in combat identification
issues including military personnel and policy makers.
