Book Synopsis Supporting Air and Space Expeditionary Forces by : Ronald G. McGarvey
Download or read book Supporting Air and Space Expeditionary Forces written by Ronald G. McGarvey and published by Rand Corporation. This book was released on 2008 with total page 274 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: This monograph describes the new modeling approach developed to construct the CONUS CIRF network designs and presents detailed results from the specific analyses. The analyses are based on F-15, F-16, and A-10 aircraft force structure bed-downs resulting from the Defense Base Closure and Realignment Commission's 2005 recommendations. For the three aircraft types, all CONUS active duty bases, Air National Guard (ANG) installations, and Air Force Reserve Command (AFRC) installations possessing combat-coded or training aircraft, along with some Air Force Materiel Command (AFMC) bases, were used as locations to be supported by CIRF networks. CIRF network designs were constructed for aircraft engines (TF34, F100, F110), electronic warfare (EW) pods (ALQ-131, ALQ-184), Low Altitude Navigation and Targeting Infrared for Night (LANTIRN) navigation (AN/AAQ-13) and targeting pods (AAQ-14s), and F-15 avionics line replaceable units (LRUs). This set of commodities was chosen because previous analyses (many of which were performed at RAND) had suggested that they afforded the largest potential savings from consolidated maintenance. Tasking scenarios considered in these analyses included normal peacetime training and readiness, Air and Space Expeditionary Force (AEF) deployment taskings, and major regional conflict (MRC) taskings.

Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: In the years to come, the effectiveness of the Expeditionary Aerospace Force will pivot largely on the support system that underlies it, termed the Agile Combat Support (ACS) system. One key component of the ACS system is the electronic countermeasure (ECM) pod system. Accordingly, this documented briefing outlines the findings of a study that assessed the utility of the Reliability, Availability, and Maintainability of Pods (RAMPOD) database as an analytical tool in support of the ECM pod system. The study found that RAMPOD has significant potential for supporting ECM pod analysis, particularly in the tracking and displaying of trends for pod removal, repair times, and in-shop queue. The study also found a significant number of missing data elements that could adversely affect the efficacy of the RAMPOD system. In addition, the RAMPOD data warehouse was found to contain data that couldn't be readily accessed through the current web-based tool.

Download or read book Supporting Expeditionary Aerospace Forces written by Eric Peltz and published by RAND Corporation. This book was released on 2000 with total page 162 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: The goal of the Expeditionary Aerospace Force (EAF) is to be a rapidly deployable strategic force. This book argues that consolidating F-15 avionics intermediate maintenance and supporting operations from regional support bases would be a better way of achieving that goal than is presently used.
Book Synopsis Supporting the Future Total Force by : Kristin F. Lynch
Download or read book Supporting the Future Total Force written by Kristin F. Lynch and published by Rand Corporation. This book was released on 2007 with total page 284 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: As the Air Force faces manpower end-strength reductions of approximately 40,000 active duty personnel, it becomes more difficult to support the air and space expeditionary force (AEF) construct using current force employment practices. These manpower reductions could leave the active component without sufficient end-strength personnel authorizations to support current operational requirements. The Air National Guard (ANG), on the other hand, will not undergo significant manpower reductions, but it will be affected by the Air Force structure planning under way in support of the Quadrennial Defense Review (QDR) and Base Realignments and Closure (BRAC) that calls for the retirement of a significant number of legacy aircraft. This could potentially leave the ANG with a large number of highly trained, highly experienced personnel with no aircraft to operate and support.
Book Synopsis A Framework for Enhancing Airlift Planning and Execution Capabilities Within the Joint Expeditionary Movement System by : Robert S. Tripp
Download or read book A Framework for Enhancing Airlift Planning and Execution Capabilities Within the Joint Expeditionary Movement System written by Robert S. Tripp and published by Rand Corporation. This book was released on 2006 with total page 165 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Recent operations have shed light on shortfalls in Air Force intratheater airlift. Using an expanded strategies-to-tasks framework, the authors assess current intratheater airlift processes, organizations, doctrine, training, and systems. This report catalogues identified shortfalls and recommends options for improving the Theater Distribution System. The authors recommend separation of supply, demand, and integrator roles and adoption of a closed-loop planning and execution process.

This book was released on 2001 with total page 351 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Dr. Chun's Aerospace Power in the Twenty-First Century: A Basic Primer is a great start towards understanding the importance of aerospace power and its ability to conduct modern warfare. Aerospace power is continually changing because of new technology, threats, and air and space theories. However, many basic principles about aerospace power have stood the test of time and warfare. This book provides the reader with many of these time-tested ideas for consideration and reflection. Although Aerospace Power in the Twenty-First Century was written for future officers, individuals desiring a broad overview of aerospace power are invited to read, share, and discuss many of the ideas and thoughts presented here. Officers from other services will find that this introduction to air and space forces will give them a good grasp of aerospace power. More experienced aerospace leaders can use this book to revisit many of the issues that have affected air and space forces in the past and that might affect them in the future. Air Force officers will discover that Aerospace Power in the Twenty-First Century is a very timely and reflective resource for their professional libraries.
Book Synopsis Supporting Expeditionary Aerospace Forces by : Lionel A. Galway
Download or read book Supporting Expeditionary Aerospace Forces written by Lionel A. Galway and published by Minnesota Historical Society. This book was released on 2000 with total page 90 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: This report addresses support of emerging Air Force employment strategies associated with Expeditionary Aerospace Forces (EAFs). EAF concepts turn on the premise that rapidly tailorable, quickly deployable, immediately employable, and highly effective air and space force packages can serve as a credible substitute for permanent forward presence. This research shows that to implement the EAF concept the Air Force will need to develop a comprehensive system of forward support infrastructure.

Book Synopsis The Future of Air Power in the Aftermath of the Gulf War by : Robert L. Pfaltzgraff
Download or read book The Future of Air Power in the Aftermath of the Gulf War written by Robert L. Pfaltzgraff and published by DIANE Publishing. This book was released on 1992 with total page 387 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: This collection of essays reflects the proceedings of a 1991 conference on "The United States Air Force: Aerospace Challenges and Missions in the 1990s," sponsored by the USAF and Tufts University. The 20 contributors comment on the pivotal role of airpower in the war with Iraq and address issues and choices facing the USAF, such as the factors that are reshaping strategies and missions, the future role and structure of airpower as an element of US power projection, and the aerospace industry's views on what the Air Force of the future will set as its acquisition priorities and strategies. The authors agree that aerospace forces will be an essential and formidable tool in US security policies into the next century. The contributors include academics, high-level military leaders, government officials, journalists, and top executives from aerospace and defense contractors.
Book Synopsis Options for Meeting the Maintenance Demands of Active Associate Flying Units by : John G. Drew
Download or read book Options for Meeting the Maintenance Demands of Active Associate Flying Units written by John G. Drew and published by Rand Corporation. This book was released on 2008 with total page 95 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: "The methodology developed in this research can be used to quantify and compare the key factors that allow the U.S. Air National Guard to generate peacetime training sorties with a fairly small full-time workforce. The authors apply these insights to proposed Total Force Integration initiatives to evaluate maintenance options for supporting associate units, where the goal of the unit is to produce trained pilots in the most efficient manner possible. The methodology evaluates how various types of personnel can influence the size and productivity of a unit." -- publisher's website.
Download or read book A-10s Over Kosovo written by Phil M. Haun and published by www.Militarybookshop.CompanyUK. This book was released on 2011 with total page 368 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: First published in 2003. The NATO-led Operation Allied Force was fought in 1999 to stop Serb atrocities against ethnic Albanians in Kosovo. This war, as noted by the distinguished military historian John Keegan, "marked a real turning point . . . and proved that a war can be won by airpower alone." Colonels Haave and Haun have organized firsthand accounts of some of the people who provided that airpower-the members of the 40th Expeditionary Operations Group. Their descriptions-a new wingman's first combat sortie, a support officer's view of a fighter squadron relocation during combat, and a Sandy's leadership in finding and rescuing a downed F-117 pilot-provide the reader with a legitimate insight into an air war at the tactical level and the airpower that helped convince the Serbian president, Slobodan Milosevic, to capitulate.
Book Synopsis Sense and Respond Logistics by : Robert S. Tripp
Download or read book Sense and Respond Logistics written by Robert S. Tripp and published by Rand Corporation. This book was released on 2006 with total page 144 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: This monograph discusses U.S. Air Force progress toward implementing sense and respond logistics or, as defined more broadly, sense and respond combat support. It describes some of the research that has been conducted on the military combat support system, focusing on improvements in prediction capability, responsiveness of supply chains, and a governing command and control system. The report identifies the elements of sense and respond combat support and shows what is necessary to use the concept within the military-specifically, the Air Force. It surveys the state of technology needed to implement the concept and identifies both the technical work that needs to be further developed and the Air Force organization most appropriate to manage the implementation. The capabilities described involve predicting what will be needed and responding quickly to anticipated or unanticipated needs. The monograph points out the need for both predictive tools and responsive systems working together. A key enabler of sense and response combat support is combat support command and control, which involves joint development of a plan in which logistics process performance and resource levels are related to desired operational effects; establishment of logistics process performance and resource-level control parameters; execution of the plan and tracking of control parameters against actual process performance and resource levels; signaling process owners when their processes lie outside control limits; and replanning logistics or operational components of the plan to mitigate the portions of the plan that are outside control limits.

Book Synopsis Strategic Appraisal by : Zalmay Khalilzad
Download or read book Strategic Appraisal written by Zalmay Khalilzad and published by Rand Corporation. This book was released on 2002-07-31 with total page 510 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Change--in international relations, in technology, and in society as a whole--has become the idiom of our age. One example of these changes has been an increasing recognition of the value of air and space assets for handling nearly every contingency from disaster relief to war and, onsequently, increasing demand for such assets. These developments have created both challenges and opportunities for the U.S. Air Force. This, the fourth volume in the Strategic Appraisal series, draws on the expertise of researchers from across RAND to explore both the challenges and opportunities that the U.S. Air Force faces as it strives to support the nation's interests in a challenging technological and security environment.Contributors examine the changing roles of air and space forces in U.S.national security strategy, the implications of new systems and technologiesfor military operations, and the role of nuclear weapons in U.S. securitystrategy. Contributors also discuss the status of major modernizationefforts within the Air Force, and the bill of health of the Air Force, asmeasured by its readiness to undertake its missions both today and in thefuture.
