A-10 Squadrons
Abstract
A-10 conducts close air support (CAS), combat search and rescue (CSAR) and special operations missions. The A-10 must conduct around-the-clock air operations under various weather conditions against numerous and varied enemy threats. Funds may be used, but not limited to, resolve emerging safety of flight and diminishing manufacturing sources issues, and fulfill Federal Aviation Administration or other mandates necessary to ensure continued aircrew safety and mission effectiveness. Operational Flight Program (OFP) development addresses user requirements to employ advanced weapons, smart munitions, targeting systems, increase situational awareness and enhance targeting capabilities. These computer processing and avionics upgrades are critical to building an architecture that promotes current open, agile, and digital concepts to enable the A-10's operational capabilities. The A-10 program's current Central Interface Control Unit (CICU) with a modern central processor (software and hardware) is unable to incorporate Open Mission System/Universal Command and Control Interface (OMS/UCI) and Universal Armament Interface (UAI) architecture standards mandates. The new processor is referred to as the Central Interface Control System (CICS) and improves communications, situational awareness, data management, weapons management and targeting, and sensor management. This program element includes funding to manage, execute, and deliver enhanced A-10 capabilities, and may include funding to support emerging modifications and other government support costs. This program element may include necessary civilian pay expenses required to manage, execute, and deliver weapon system capability. The use of such program's funds would be in addition to the civilian pay expenses budgeted in program element 0605827F, 0605828F, 0605829F, 0605831F, 0605832F, 0605833F, 0605898F, 0606398F. In PY23 $0.000M was expended for civilian pay expenses in this program element, and in CY24 $0.000M is forecasted for civilian pay expenses in this program element. This program is in Budget Activity 7, Operational System Development because this budget activity includes development efforts to upgrade systems that have been fielded or have received approval for full rate production and anticipate production funding in the current or subsequent fiscal year.
