BASELINE SUPPORT
Abstract
Baseline Support maintains and upgrades the B-2 unique flight test aircraft as well as hardware/software and test equipment to support developmental systems integration, and flight test, reducing the need for additional operational aircraft and accelerating deployment of advanced operational capabilities to the warfighter. Baseline Support also provides for other B-2 unique government costs and includes assorted studies of aircraft performance and cost trades as well as acquisition planning activities, up to and including proposal preparation, for future aircraft, engine, weapon, communication, navigation or other capabilities. B-2 funding may be used to resolve emerging safety of flight and diminishing manufacturing sources issues, and fulfill FAA or other mandates necessary to ensure continued aircrew safety and mission effectiveness. Funding may also support innovation activities including, but not limited to, studies, analyses, requirements definition, and quick-reaction capability prototypes/demonstrations to accelerate planning for technology transition, technology insertion, and future acquisition programs.
