Depot Maintenance (NON-IF)
Abstract
3030: A significant portion of the F/A-18 airframe is believed to have additional inherent capability and a life extension may be possible for many portions of the airframe. The F/A-18 Service Life Assessment Program (SLAP) is assessing the structural and subsystem conditions of the F/A-18 fleet in order to determine what modifications are necessary to extend the aircraft designed life limits to allow it to achieve Chief of Naval Operations inventory requirements. Without SLAP and follow on Service Life Extension Program aircraft are retired from the USN inventory when a design service life metric is reached. 3182: The T-45 SLAP Project involves the prototype design and development of a new tail hook that is capable of supporting Pilot and Naval Flight Officer (NFO) training in an aircraft carrier environment through 2035. The project also includes an assessment of the aircraft subsystem condition of the T-45 fleet in order to determine what modifications are necessary to extend the aircraft subsystem design life limits to support the Pilot Integrated Production Plan and NFO through 2035. JUSTIFICATION FOR BUDGET ACTIVITY: This program is funded under OPERATIONAL SYSTEMS DEVELOPMENT because it includes development efforts to upgrade systems that have been fielded or have received approval for full rate production and anticipate funding in the current or subsequent fiscal year.

- Change Summary Explanation
- Technical: Not applicable. Schedule: 3030: The Structures Phase B effort is extended to 4th Quarter 2018. The Structures Phase C effort will begin in 2nd Quarter 2015 and is extended to 4th Quarter 2018. Phase B is updated to reflect a larger scope of work required to complete Structures tasking. Structures Phase C schedule movement is a product of the Structures Phase B schedule change. The Subsystems Phase B effort will be completed in 4th Quarter 2013 and Subsystems Phase C will start in 1st Quarter 2014 and end in 4th Quarter 2014. This change reflects a more narrow scope of work required to complete Subsystems Tasking. Subsystems Phase C schedule movement is a product of the Subsystems Phase B schedule change. 3182: Not Applicable
