It may or may not have progressively larger outlines of image around it and may have one or more similar combinations of images arranged in various patterns or formations upon a common background. The area between the outlines of images are usually designated by assigned numerals decreasing in numerical value from the center to outer edges. The overall shape or appearance may be square, oblong, or irregular, depending upon the simulated outline. It usually consists of paper, pasteboard or similar pliable material. Excludes TARGET, MANNEQUIN.

What is a Bull's-Eye Target?

NATO Supply Class 6920 is a classification within NATO Supply Group 69, which is designated for Training Aids and Devices. Specifically, Class 6920 focuses on Armament Training Devices.

Armament Training Devices are equipment or systems designed to simulate or replicate the functions and characteristics of actual armament systems. These devices are used for training purposes to provide realistic and safe training experiences for military personnel.

Examples of Armament Training Devices that fall under NATO Supply Class 6920 include:

1. Simulators: These are computer-based systems that replicate the operation and functionality of various armament systems, such as firearms, missiles, or artillery. Simulators provide trainees with a virtual environment to practice their skills and improve their proficiency.

2. Training Weapons: These are non-lethal replicas of actual weapons, such as rifles, pistols, or grenades. Training weapons are used to teach handling, disassembly, and assembly procedures, as well as marksmanship and tactical training.

3. Target Systems: These are devices used to simulate targets for training purposes. They can include stationary targets, moving targets, or even remotely controlled targets. Target systems help trainees practice their aim, accuracy, and target acquisition skills.

4. Explosive Ordnance Disposal (EOD) Training Devices: These devices are used to simulate explosive devices or hazardous materials for EOD training. They allow trainees to practice identifying, neutralizing, and disposing of explosive threats in a controlled environment.

It is important to note that NATO Supply Class 6920 is specific to armament training devices and does not include other types of training aids or devices within NATO Supply Group 69.
