Impact of Increased Undergraduate Pilot Training (UPT) Activity Duty Service Commitment on the Air National Guard (ANG)
Abstract
The United States Air Force (USAF) may increase the service obligation for UPT graduates to nine years. If approved, USAF pilots will have approximately 11 years active duty prior to being eligible to separate. A more significant Air National Guard (ANG) pilot accession resources will occur with the loss of former USAF pilots who have separated with approximately eight to 11 years of active duty. How will the ANG be affected? Will the rank structure change appreciably in the rated inventory? Will the current rated experience level in the ANG drop significantly? Is sufficient training available to offset the lack of active duty accessions?
