Training System Aircraft

Abstract

This program element provides for design, development, integration and test of various pre-production platform improvements for Naval Undergraduate Flight Training Systems which include T-45, T-6, TH-57, and T-44 aircraft. 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, but are not limited to: 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. 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
FY 2018 adjustments include minor program adjustments: Schedule: T-45 Training System (TS) Required Avionics Sustainment Program (RASP) updated to reflect schedule impacts resulting from adjustment in technical baseline in May 2016. This technical baseline adjusted the development efforts for the T-45's navigation source Global Positioning System (GPS) to evaluate the possibility of incorporating a common GPS utilized by other aircraft into the T-45 for compliance with Federal Aviation Administration (FAA) Next Generation Air Transportation System (NextGen) requirements. This development and evaluation is being conducted in parallel with Automatic Dependent Surveillance Broadcast (ADS-B) Out efforts, which are necessary to satisfy FAA NextGen requirements. Schedule: T-6 A/B schedule updated to add schedule for T-6A development efforts (United States Air Force led). Schedule: TH-57 Follow-On system updated to reflect focus on system development efforts. Schedule: Training System Improvement schedule updated to incorporate Joint T-6 study efforts with United States Air Force.
