Acft Handling & Service Equip

Abstract

Common Ground Equipment is a Naval Aviation project to apply new technology to common support equipment necessary to support multiple systems/aircraft within the Navy. The common support equipment items developed with this budget are briefed to the Air Force, Army and Coast Guard for possible use in joint procurement in the production phase. New Programs are Aircraft Spotting Dolly (ASD) and Carrier/Amphibious Assault Ship Crash Crane (CV/AACC) in FY15. ASD is an R&D program to develop next generation ASD. New ASD requires low profile and alternative power to allow safe spotting of all aircraft aboard carrier/amphibious class ships. CV/AACC is required to remove damaged aircraft from the flight line. R&D resources are needed to identify not only replacements, but new technologies, which can increase the reliability and maintainability of this flight ops critical piece of equipment. Funding supports the evaluation, testing and integration to develop Portable Electronic Maintenance Aids (PEMA) Commercial Off the Shelf solution for portable device deployments across the Naval Aviation Enterprise. PEMA is a portable device utilized by maintainers with the implementation of digital maintenance capabilities (digital publications, Interactive Electronic Technical Manuals, Internet Protocol based data uploads, Binary digit data downloads, automated diagnostics, and planeside Naval Aviation Logistics Command/Management Information System. PEMAs are a mandatory display device supporting modern day Automated Maintenance Environment implemented for weapon systems.
