description We developed an estimation formula for mission motion suitability evaluation based on the general motion protocol to evaluate the motion suitability of a tracked vehicle crew jacket. Motion suitability evaluation was conducted for the 9 general motions and 12 mission motions among 27 tracked vehicle crew members who wore a tracked vehicle crew jacket. We conducted correlation and factor analyses on motions to extract the main mission motions, and a multiple regression analysis was performed on major mission motions using general motions as independent variables. As a result, two mission behavior factors related to ammunition stowing and boarding/entry were extracted. We selected ammunition stowing I and the boarding motion, which has the highest factor load in each factor and the highest explanatory power (R<sup>2</sup>) of the estimation formula. Regression equations for ammunition stowing consisting of five general motions (<i>p</i> < 0.001) and for boarding motion (<i>p</i> < 0.01) consisting of one general motion could be obtained. In conclusion, the estimation formula for mission motion suitability using general motion is beneficial for enhancing the effectiveness of the evaluation of military jackets for tracked vehicle crews.
