Book excerpt: "DoD utilized the Civil Reserve Air Fleet (CRAF) to help meet Operation Desert Shield/Storm requirements. Commercial carriers flew in excess of 4,700 missions in moving units, equipment, and resupply material. The call-up of aircraft proved particularly troublesome both to MAC (which did not necessarily need all of the capability of an entire CRAF stage) and to the carriers (whose aircraft were not always fully utilized once activated). We propose that DoD discard the use of staged activations; create discrete aircraft requirements categories or segments (e.g., long-range international cargo); select aircraft capability from each segment according to need; use a lottery system to spread volunteer awards and activation burdens among the carriers; and establish new authority levels for calling up aircraft. We believe that this proposed call-up procedure - along with recommendations concerning the senior lodger program, crew ratios, national defense features, and war risk insurance coverage - will strengthen th CRAF Program."--Stinet.

Download or read book Civil Reserve Air Fleet: A Rough Road Ahead written by and published by . This book was released on 2004 with total page 24 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: The Civil Reserve Air Fleet (CRAF) was created in 1951 to provide supplemental airlift capability to the U.S military for worldwide operations. The program has been mutually beneficial, providing peacetime government cargo and passenger business for CRAF participants while allowing the military to man and maintain a smaller, less expensive organic airlift capability. Indeed, Operations Enduring Freedom and Iraqi Freedom recently illustrated the undeniable requirement for the CRAF to continue supplementing organic lift. However, air carrier industry trends and a perceived erosion of the incentive program have put future air carrier participation at risk. If CRAF is to survive, USTRANSCOM and the Air Force's Air Mobility Command must make some tough decisions and implement sweeping changes in the way it manages the program. This paper illustrates concerns with the CRAF program, its outdated activation system, and deteriorating incentives and recommend changes that will ensure the CRAF exists to support the Global War on Terror and other operations well into the future.
Book Synopsis The Civil Reserve Air Fleet and Operation Desert Shield/Desert Storm by : Mary E. Chenoweth
Download or read book The Civil Reserve Air Fleet and Operation Desert Shield/Desert Storm written by Mary E. Chenoweth and published by Rand Corporation. This book was released on 1993 with total page 78 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: This report investigates the activation of the Civil Reserve Air Fleet (CRAF), which the Military Airlift Command (predecessor of the Airlift Mobility Command) called up for the first time at the start of Operation Desert Shield. From August 1990 to May 1991, CRAF furnished commercial airline assets--passenger jets, cargo transports, and crews--to the command to assist in the massive deployment of U.S. troops and supplies to the Gulf region and in their eventual return. To guarantee a robust CRAF for our national security future, some enhancements are vital. An effective, modern mix of incentives for this volunteer program is necessary. Also, policies that shield air carriers from unreasonable risk; improve command, control, and communications; and minimize the inefficient use of commercial aircraft and crews should be developed.
Book Synopsis Asymmetric Warfare by : Cheryl A. Mach
Download or read book Asymmetric Warfare written by Cheryl A. Mach and published by . This book was released on 2001 with total page 0 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: From the beginning of the use of airpower as a means to transport men and material, commercial airlines have provided the necessary augmentation to allow military operational planners to incorporate additional civil lift as part of it's warfighting capability. This concept of commercial airline augmentation of military lift was formalized in 1952 and called the "Civil Reserve Air Fleet" or CRAF program. Conventional U.S. military strategy saw CRAF flying safely into allied airfields far from enemy lines and the physical risk to commercial air carriers was considered low. Yet, as was seen during Operation DESERT SHIELD and DESERT STORM, it was necessary for CRAF to fly directly into Saudi Arabian airbases under the threat of surface-to-surface missile and chemical attacks, a situation that CRAF aircrews were unprepared to face. Future conflicts may constitute a greater threat to CRAF than in the case of the Gulf War. Proactive initiation of programs to mitigate known asymmetric threats to commercial carriers employed in either a voluntary or activation mode will go a long way in strengthening carrier confidence in the CRAF program. In addition, it will ensure that this important strategic asset will not be degraded when it is needed most
Book Synopsis Maintaining the Civil Reserve Air Fleet by :
Download or read book Maintaining the Civil Reserve Air Fleet written by and published by . This book was released on 2000 with total page 25 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Strategic airlift is vital to meeting the National Security Strategy of protecting the nation's interests throughout the globe. With a decreasing defense budget, the CRAF program is a proven method to provide DoD a relatively inexpensive way to maintain a large airlift capability. This paper investigates and analyzes the thesis that the shift in global business practices and a robust economy, combined with CRAF activation concerns, endangers the future of the CRAF program. Section One begins with a historical overview and current status of the CRAF program. Section Two analyzes two core problems (decreased financial reliance upon DoD and increased likelihood of CRAF activation) generated within the civil air carrier industry and military by recent shifts in both the economic and political environment. Section Three provides recommendations to counter these problems and improve the relationship between DoD and civil air carriers. Finally, Section Four examines areas requiring future study that may potentially prove instrumental in addressing the future of CRAF.

Download or read book Impact of Foreign Ownership on the Civil Reserve Air Fleet written by Donald. M. Schauber and published by . This book was released on 2008 with total page 27 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: "Since the beginning of manned flight, the movement of men and equipment by air has been critical to our nation's national security. This realization led to the establishment of the Civil Reserve Air Fleet (CRAF) in 1951 to augment the nation's military airlift fleet in times of national emergency. In the fifty-six years following its inception, CRAF has proven itself numerous times as a critical enabler to our military strategy. Recent changes within the military and trends towards a globalized economy have the Department of Defense (DOD) and U.S. airlines on diverging paths. The purpose of this paper is to examine these changes and their possible impact on our national security. Following a basic overview outlining CRAF and its criticality, the paper will examine the conflict of interest between our national economy and our national security regarding the push to liberalize airline ownership and control. The paper will conclude by examining some possible options and recommendations that may help address the concerns so as to ensure the CRAF program remains a viable and integral part of our military capability."--Abstract from web site.
Book Synopsis The Civil Reserve Air Fleet: A Vulnerable National Asset by :
Download or read book The Civil Reserve Air Fleet: A Vulnerable National Asset written by and published by . This book was released on 2006 with total page 37 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: U.S. military war planning is based upon the use of the Civil Reserve Air Fleet (CRAF) to augment organic air mobility assets when deploying and sustaining forces in a contingency. While the CRAF is a tremendous national asset, its resources are not suitable for operations into airfields vulnerable to surface-to-air missile threats or chemical, biological or radiological attack. If a major conventional war erupts and CRAF assets are restricted from operating into planned aerial ports of debarkation, (APODs) a combatant commander's planned force deployment flow will be affected and the deployment timeline will be extended. U.S. military strategic airlift assets will not be sufficient to adequately flow forces to the desired APODs after CRAF transload at an intermediate staging base. The impact will be significant and war plans will have to be reconsidered.
