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.

Change Summary Explanation
Cost: Not Applicable Schedule: Project 0601: Carrier Crash Crane Milestone B and Milestone C realigned and rescheduled due to requirement updates from F-35 incorporation in the Requirement Analysis Document and the removal of Assault Ship from the procurement. Milestone B shift from 1st quarter FY17 to 2nd quarter FY19 and Milestone C shift from 4th quarter FY19 to 1st quarter FY22. Project 0852: eCASS milestone Full Rate Production Decision Review and contract award for Full Rate Production shift from 3rd Quarter FY 2016 to 1st Quarter FY 2017 in order to resolve deficiencies found during the test sprint periods. Resolving these deficiencies improves product effectiveness for Navy and Marine operators and will ensure repeatable manufacturing production. EO3 Technology Development was added as an FY18 planned project. This project will develop, integrate and test technical solutions to resolve EO3 obsolescence issues, including a near infrared camera, that are capable of supporting the maintenance and repair of the F/A-18 ATFLIR and H-60 MTS weapon systems. Project 2269: Sustainment Lighting System (SLS) production milestone for Full Rate Production Lot 1 moved from 2nd Quarter FY 2019 to 4th Quarter FY 2019. SLS Critical Design Review moved from 4nd Quarter FY 2016 to 2nd Quarter FY 2017. Technical: Not Applicable.
