Aircraft Engine Component Improvement Program

Abstract

Aircraft Engine Component Improvement Program (CIP) develops, tests, and qualifies improvements to aircraft engine components to correct service-revealed deficiencies, improve flight safety, enhance readiness and reduce operating and support (O&S) costs. In addition, CIP provides the test vehicles for the testing and qualification efforts required as a part of the Army's Critical Safety Item (CSI) program. CIP is included in the RDTE budget vice procurement appropriations in accordance with congressional direction. The majority of CIP funding has been reallocated to PE 273744 beginning in FY07. Non-program specific Auxiliary Power Unit (APU) as well as Unmanned Aerial Vehicle (UAV) safety and readiness issues will continue to be addressed under this PE.
