Training System Aircraft

Abstract

Decrease in by TRAINING SYSTEM AIRCRAFT $0.837M as required for the Department of the Navy to comply with the Bipartisan Budget Act of 2015. The FY 2017 funding request was reduced by $3.982M to account for the availability of prior year execution balances. This program element provides for design, development, integration and test of various pre-production platform improvements for Naval Undergraduate Flight Training Systems. Continued development engineering for improvements in reliability, maintainability, safety and meeting Federal Aviation Administration(FAA) Next Generation Air Transportation System (NextGen)flight safety requirements are required to ensure maximum benefit is achieved to provide effective cost of ownership and availability of aircraft to meet Chief of Naval Air Training (CNATRA) student training requirements. Specific efforts include: T-45 Training System (TS) Required Avionics Sustainment Program (RASP) Phase I Automatic Dependent Surveillance-Broadcast (ADS-B) (Out); T-6 Joint Primary Aircraft Training System (JPATS) Communication and Navigation System/Air Traffic Management (CNS/ATM); TH-57 Follow-On Training System and T-6 Rudder Binding Analysis. TH-57 Follow-On Training System and Training System Improvements are NEW STARTs for FY2017. This program is funded under SYSTEM DEVELOPMENT AND DEMONSTRATION because it includes those projects conducting engineering and manufacturing development tasks aimed at meeting validated requirements prior to full-rate production decision.

Change Summary Explanation
FY2015 Changes reflect reprogramming of funds based on adjustment to T-6 Automatic Dependent Surveillance-Broadcast (Out) schedule. FY2017 program adjustments reflect addition of TH-57 Follow-On Training System effort and continuation of T-6 Joint Primary Aircraft Training System (JPATS) ADS-B Out effort. FY2017 Rate/Misc Adjustments include $3.982M reduction for FY15 Program Execution, Targeted Bipartisan Budget Act Reduction of $0.837M, Defense Travel Modernization Reduction of $0.006M as well as miscellaneous adjustments for Navy Working Capital Fund and Inflation rates. Schedule: T-45 Training System (TS) Required Avionics Sustainment Program (RASP) updated to reflect schedule impacts resulting from this effort being a new start in FY-2015 and delay in receipt of funding to 2nd QTR FY-2015. Schedules shifted by 1 to 2 quarters. Schedule: T-6 A/B schedule updated to reflect change to abbreviated acquisition program specific to T-6B model efforts for Communication and Navigation System/Air Traffic Management (CNS/ATM) removing MS B and MS C events. Schedule: Schedule for training system improvements added for FY2017 and beyond to reflect future development efforts to improve Naval Undergraduate Flight Training Systems.
