Foreign Materiel Acquisition/Analysis
Abstract
This project's specific purpose is to support USAF Foreign Materiel Program requirements through the acquisition and analysis of foreign materiel. Items considered for these Foreign Materiel Acquisition (FMA) funds are included in the prioritized Air Force FMA Top 20 list established each year. Each Major Command (MAJCOM) prepares and approves a Foreign Materiel - Mission Requirements Statement for each requirement. Annually, the MAJCOM commanders establish a list of their top 20 requirements. The MAJCOMs' requirements lists are integrated and prioritized into a classified Air Force requirement list. Each MAJCOM then approves the FMA Top 20 List and final validation comes from the Air Force Vice Chief of Staff. System analyses are based on and driven by acquisitions. The USAF provides assessments and data for threat systems to all DoD components. Budget Activity Justification: This Program Element is in Budget Activity 6, Management Support, because it is a Research and Development (R&D) effort for Improvement and Modernization of T&E capabilities at Air Force Test Centers.
