MH-139A PE/PI
Abstract
The MH-139A program will replace the Air Force fleet of UH-1N aircraft with modern helicopters that will close significant mission capability gaps associated with the current fleet of UH-1N aircraft. The replacement aircraft will provide vertical airlift and support the requirements of four Air Force major commands and operating agencies: Air Force Global Strike Command (AFGSC), Air Force District of Washington (AFDW), Air Education and Training Command (AETC), and Air Force Material Command (AFMC). AFGSC is the Air Force lead command and operational capability requirements sponsor. This program is an element of the Air Force's nuclear enterprise reform initiatives. The MH-139A Performance Enhancements and Product Improvements Program is for the development of solutions to solve capability gaps found during the development and test of the MH-139A to include communication and weapon systems deficiencies, improve mission planning compatibility, and resolve usability concerns, and other critical capabilities. The program office will utilize the additional flight test aircraft in support of modernization efforts to address emerging threats and evolving mission needs. This program element may include necessary civilian pay expenses required to manage, execute, and deliver the MH-139A weapon system capability. The use of such programs funds would be in addition to the civilian pay expenses budgeted in program elements 0605827F, 0605828F, 0605829F, 0605831F, 0605832F, 0605833F, 0605898F, 0606398F. In FY 2021 $00.000 million was expended for civilian pay expenses in this program element, and in FY 2022 $00.000 million is forecasted for civilian pay expenses in this program element.
