Advanced Trainer Replacement T-X

Abstract

The Advanced Trainer Replacement, T-X, will replace the USAF T-38 aircraft and associated Ground Based Training System (GBTS) currently used in the fighter/bomber advanced Specialized Undergraduate Pilot Training (SUPT) track as well as in the Introduction to Fighter Fundamentals (IFF) program. The T-38 was first introduced in 1961 and is currently projected to begin phase out in 2017. FY2012 plans include completion of concept development activities and initiation of the Technology Development phase. The program funding includes reductions for overhead reduction efficiencies that are not intended to impact program content. The efficiencies reductions total $0.067M in FY12. Budget Activity Justification. This project is in Budget Activity 5, System Development and Demonstration (SDD), because it primarily involves the missionization of essentially non-developmental aircraft, equipment, and components.
