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 Expeditionary Airfields (EAF) program designs, develops, tests and fields a sustainment lighting system to replace existing obsolete legacy EAF lighting system. JUSTIFICATION FOR BUDGET ACTIVITY: This program is funded under OPERATIONAL SYSTEMS DEVELOPMENT because it includes development efforts to upgrade systems that have been fielded or have received approval for full rate production and anticipate funding in the current or subsequent fiscal year.
