C-5 Airlift Squadrons
Abstract
This program is in Budget Activity 7, Operational Systems Development because this budget activity includes development efforts to upgrade systems that have been fielded or have received approval for full rate production and anticipate production funding in the current or subsequent fiscal year. In FY11, Project Number 674495, Avionics Modernization Program (AMP) was completed. In FY11, Project Number 675353, C-5 Block Upgrade was completed. In FY12, Project Number 674835, C-5 Reliability Enhancement and Re-engining Program (RERP) was completed. 675358: C-5 Core Mission Computer (CMC) and Weather Radar Programs: Mission computer and weather radar replacement is a comprehensive effort to mitigate the obsolence of the current CMC and weather radar. This effort centers around replacing the current mission computer to obtain sufficient capability to support integration of new system capabilities with margin for growth. Also, the effort includes replacement of the weather radar with a commercial off-the-shelf color weather radar. The new mission computer will allow for current and future throughput growth of additional processing requirements to meet CY 2020 CNS/ATM mandates. In FY 2013, the C-5 Mission Computer and Weather Radar research, development, test, and evaluation is a new start effort. FY 2013: Funding supports mission computer design, development, weather radar integration, engineering change orders, and contractor test. Mission support funding is required for program office operations.
