History and Evaluation of the Integrated Avionic Systems Specialty.
Abstract
The thesis presents a historical analysis of the Integrated Avionic Systems Specialty (326XX). It reviews the results of many developments in weapons technology which have affected Air Force Maintenance concepts and training requirements. Research efforts were directed at integrated avionic systems which have evolved from microelectronics technology. Since 1968, additional weapon systems have been added to the Air Force inventory and the resulting overextension of this career field caused manpower and training problems. After several years of intercommand deliberation, corrective changes to this career specialty have recently been proposed. Restructing of the 326XX AFSC is expected to provide improved manpower skills for the maintenance of the F/FB-111, A-7D, F-15, F-16, andB-1 aircraft. Future developments in technology or changes in maintenance policy may require further evaluation of this career field structuring and logistic support requirements.
