Expeditionary Airfields (EAF) Matting

Abstract

This program is a FY2012 New Start. The Expeditionary Airfields (EAF) program will design, develop, test and field components of a heat resistant light weight airfield surfacing system and a heat resistant lighting system that will support the deployment of the Joint Strike Fighter in austere environments worldwide. These systems will provide EAF Marine Wing Support Squadrons with the required EAF equipments to install Forward Operating Bases (FOB) and Forward Arming and Refueling Points (FARP). With the deployment of this equipment, the Marine Wing Support Squadron (MWSS) can support all USMC aircraft allowing the Combatant Commanders the flexibility to deploy Aircraft Combat Elements (ACE) to meet anticipated threats.
