AV-8B
Abstract
This program provides for AV-8B Design, Development, Integration and Test of the following improvements: The Engine Life Management Program (ELMP), Operational Flight Program (OFP) and Avionics/Weapons Integration, Escape System, and Readiness Management Plan (RMP). The ELMP is a comprehensive plan to increase safety of flight and operational readiness of the AV-8B F402-RR-408 Engine and Gas Turbine Starter, as well as other critical engine components. The Program Office will accomplish this mission through the Component Improvement Program, which entails Engineering Project Description investigations and a series of planned Endurance Tests to derive safety and reliability improvements to the engine and engine components. The Joint Mission Planning System is required as part of the Department of Navy directed migration to a common Navy and Marine Corps mission planning system. H6.1 provides enhancements and software corrections, and H6.2 (Common Avionics Program) provides Global Positioning System navigation capabilities as well as software updates. H7.0 OFP will integrate APX-123 and Link 16 capability and provide software updates. Follow on OFP will integrate common avionics ADS-B (out), Mode 5, and Mode S Identification Friend or Foe capabilities. Other specific efforts include Airborne Variable Message Format Terminal and AIM-120C flight test, as AIM-120A/B will become obsolete, as well as AIM-120 mixed stores flight test. The program is working closely with the Common Avionics Program and the Allies (Spain and Italy) on all efforts. RMP represents all engineering activities for development and design to support aircraft safety, flight clearance and concept exploration for resolution of emergent safety, service life, escape systems, compatibility, obsolescence, and readiness issues.
