Power of Lomah (Location of Miss and Hit)

To understand the power of LOMAH, one must consider first that the Army has a pass rate of only 40 to 45 percent during qualification, and from test data observations, it appears that a significant contributing factor is that weapons are not zeroed. Zeroing a weapon means making sight adjustments on the weapon that align the round’s point of impact to the Soldier’s point of aim.

To accomplish this on a 300m Known Distance (KD) range without LOMAH, a Soldier shoots at his raised target, which is then lowered, marked, and raised again. He calculates how far off his marked shots are from the target’s center of mass and makes the sight adjustments to his weapon. Then, the target is lowered, ‘patched up’ so the previous shots are not visible, and raised again for the Soldier to re-engage. This process is not only time-consuming, but the effectiveness of the sight adjustments depends on the Soldier’s ability to identify the marked shot locations, calculate his offset from center of mass, and make the correct adjustments for his weapon and sight type.

Utilizing LOMAH, Soldiers make the necessary adjustments based on the immediate feedback displayed on the tablet-based student station at the firing point. While the Soldiers are shooting, the instructors are watching over them and utilizing a tablet-based coaching station that provides a real-time, color-based indication of each shooter’s status. A blue, green, yellow, or red status indicates that a shooter has either successfully met the zeroing standard, the shooter is projected to meet standard, the shooter is struggling to meet standard, or the shooter is far from meeting standard, respectively. The instructor can immediately focus his attention to a shooter not meeting the standard, look at the shooter’s mechanics and LOMAH feedback, and explain to the shooter in real time where he is making mistakes. Based on this information, the Soldier improves his mechanics in addition to correctly zeroing his weapon.
