Weapon Control Systems Career Ladders, AFSC 321X2/A/C/P/Q.

Abstract

This survey identified 9 major job groups, with a total of 28 distinct job types within those groups. Groups identified closely corresponded to the major aircraft systems maintained and, thus, strongly supported the current career field structure established under AFR 39-1. The 3-, 5-, and 7-skill level specialty descriptions accurately summarized the jobs of personnel in each career ladder and reflected the responsibilities of airmen at the different skill levels. Survey data generally supported the current 3ABR32132Q course, but raised questions about the 3ABR32132-002 (slick) course. Specifically, the slick course uses an A-7 trainer to train airmen who primarily will maintain the A-10 while seldom, if ever, maintaining the A-7. A formal evaluation of how well training on the A-7 system transfers to the A-10 may be needed to determine if changes in the course are necessary.
