Aviation Improvements

Abstract

Project 0601 - Common Ground Equipment is a Naval Aviation Project to apply new technology to common support equipment necessary to support multiple aircraft. Project 0852 - Consolidated Automated Support System is a standardized Automated Test Equipment with computer assisted, multi-function capabilities to support the maintenance of aircraft subsystems and missiles. Project 1041 - Aircraft Equipment Reliability/Maintainability Improvement Program is the only Navy program that provides engineering support for in-service out-of-production aircraft equipment, and provides increased readiness at reduced operational and support cost. Project 1355 - Aircraft Engine Component Improvement Program develops reliability and maintainability and safety enhancements for in-service Navy aircraft engines, transmissions, propellers, starters, auxiliary power units, electrical generating systems, fuel systems, fuels, and lubricants. Project 2269 - The EAF program designs, develops, tests and fields components of a heat resistant lightweight airfield surfacing system and resistant that will support the deployment of the Joint Strike Fighter in austere environments worldwide and a sustainment lighting system to replace existing obsolete legacy EAF lighting system. Project 3189 - is the Digital Improved Triple Ejector Rack (ITER) program. The Digital ITER develops an increased capability to the existing BRU-42 Improved Triple Ejector Rack for the AV-8B, which adds a multiple carriage capability for Smart Weapons. Project 3190 - is the Multi-Purpose Bomb Rack (MPBR). The MPBR was to replace the BRU-41 / 42 / 33 / 55 for the F/A-18E/F platform and provide for the carriage and release of both tactical and training stores on one common rack. This project has been terminated. The last programatic event will be the Systems Requirement Review. A stop work has been issued and contract termination cost determinations are under way.
