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 weapons systems 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
The FY 2019 funding request was reduced by $5.459 million to account for the availability of prior year execution balances. The FY 2019 funding request was reduced by $0.674 million to reflect the Department of Navy's effort to support the Office of Management and Budget directed reforms for Efficiency and Effectiveness that include a lean, accountable, more efficient government. Schedule: Project 0601: Name change from Carrier Crash Crane (CV) to Carrier/Amphibious Assault Ship Crash Crane (CV/AACC) due to adding the amphibious assault ship back to the procurement. CV/AACC Milestone C shifted left from 1st quarter FY22 to 1st quarter FY21 and FRPDR was added 2nd quarter FY22 reflecting the current acquisition strategy. Aircraft Spotting Dolly (ASD) was moved to non-development program due to Commercial Off-The-Shelf (COTS) availability; removed contractor/government test and Milestone C from program schedule. Standard PEMA Cyber Solution (SPECS) POM 19 funded FY19 through FY21 with deliveries completing in FY22; program schedule added to budget. Project 0852: The Third-Generation Electro-Optics (EO3) Technology Development project develops, integrates, and tests solutions to resolve EO3 obsolescence issues to enable sustained maintenance and repair capabilities for the F/A-18 ATFLIR and H-60 MTS weapons systems. The Test Technology Development project includes development of technical solutions to meet emerging weapons system testing requirements and to resolve other imminent Automated Test Equipment (ATE) obsolescence issues, including the Inertial Device Test Set (IDTS), the next-generation Electro-Optical (EO) subsystem, and other eCASS test system modernization requirements. Project 2269: The Sustainment Lighting System (SLS) program experienced a six month slip to MS C caused by the delay in the Critical Design Review (CDR) due to design changes and system maturity concerns which delayed the delivery of required drawings and CDRLs required for CDR. Critical Design Review (CDR) moved from 2nd Quarter FY 2017 to 4th Quarter FY 2017. Test Readiness Review (TRR) moved from 3rd Quarter FY 2017 to 1st Quarter FY 2018. Developmental Test & Evaluation (DT&E) start moved from 3rd Quarter FY 2017 to 1st Quarter 2018. Operational Test Readiness Review (OTRR) moved from 4th Quarter FY 2018 to 2nd Quarter FY 2019. Milestone C moved from 2nd Quarter FY 2019 to 4th Quarter FY 2019. Production milestone for Full Rate Production Lot 1 and IOC moved from 4th Quarter FY 2019 to 2nd Quarter FY 2020. Technical: Not Applicable. NOTE: The 5K in FY22 of PU 2269 belongs in PU 1355.
