Presidental Aircraft Replacement (PAR)

Abstract

This is not a New Start. Prior to FY 2015, Project 655250 Presidential Aircraft Recap efforts were executed in PE 0401314F, Project 675355, Presidential Aircraft Recapitalization. The funding in this line was inadvertently loaded into BA07. The Air Force plans to execute the funding in BA05 if appropriated. This funding supports development planning efforts and studies as well as Engineering and Manufacturing Development (EMD) contract activities for the Presidential Aircraft Recapitalization (PAR) effort. PAR will recapitalize the VC-25A system and support the Office of the President in executing Constitutional roles of Head of State, Chief Executive, and Commander in Chief. The principal mission of PAR is to provide the President of the United States and the President's staff and guests with safe, comfortable and reliable air transportation with the same level of security and communications capability as is available at the White House. As a 'national level' airborne communications node providing voice, data, video, processed imagery and network services, PAR enables the President and traveling staff to address the full range of political and military operations globally. Development planning funding supports planning efforts and products including systems engineering strategy and analysis; risk analysis and management; concept definition and trade studies; test and evaluation strategy; life cycle cost estimates; sustainment and logistics analysis; information support and network analysis; technology and manufacturing maturity analysis and acquisition planning analysis. Funding also supports award of the PAR EMD contract and initial preliminary design efforts.
