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 JPATS including but not limited to studies & development efforts, instructional courseware, and logistics support to include Diminishing Manufacturing Sources(DMS) and development activities related to DMS. Included is development for the Next Generation On-Board Oxygen Generation System, Automatic Dependent Surveillance Broadcast Out (ADS-B Out), Crash Survivable Recorder (CSR),Controlled Flight Into Terrain - Prevention (CFIT-Prevention), Pilot Training Next (PTN) and associated upgrades. There are currently 443 aircraft in the Air Force inventory. Remaining service life is up to 39 years from the final delivery in May 2010. The T-38 program continues studies & development efforts supporting future ACAT III Engineering Change Proposals to address DMSMS issues for the T-38 Platform and regular block upgrades for the T-38C as required to keep the system current. Block upgrades incorporate software and/or hardware improvements for the aircraft and aircrew training devices to address flight safety issues and to comply with new capabilities mandated by Department of Defense, Federal Aviation Administration, or National Airspace System. This program element may include necessary civilian pay expenses required to manage, execute, and deliver Specialized Undergraduate Flight Training capabilities. The use of such program funds would be in addition to the civilian pay expenses budgeted in program element 0605831F.
