Undergraduate Remotely Piloted Aircraft Training supports Air Education and Training Command's implementation of Undergraduate Remotely Piloted Aircraft Training. This program provides and maintains the currency of Predator Reaper Integrated Mission Environment Desktop Training System. T-6 Operational System Development continues follow on development activities to Joint Primary Aircraft Training System including studies & development efforts to support future ACAT III Engineering Change Proposals to the T-6 Aircraft, instructional courseware, and logistics support to include Diminishing Manufacturing Sources and Material Shortages and development activities related to Diminishing Manufacturing Sources and Material Shortages. Included is development for the Federal Aviation Administration mandated ACAT III program for Automatic Dependent Surveillance-Broadcast Out and associated upgrades. T-38 program will continue development in FY2017 and FY2018 of a replacement Mission Display Processor, refurbishment of the existing Heads-Up Display, development and integration of an Automatic Dependent Surveillance-Broadcast solution as well as replacement of the Very High Frequency Communication radio system and the Very High Frequency Navigation system. System testing is projected to begin in FY2017 and production and deployment of the replacement the systems will begin in late FY2018 and continue through FY2021. The FY 2018 funding request was reduced by $5.354 million to account for the availability of prior year execution balances.
