Avionics Readiness Program for 1980-2000, Volume 1 - General Plan.

Abstract

The Readiness factors being experienced on Navy air weapons systems which contain modern and complex technology avionics, are marginal at best. The current investment, in both manpower and material, that comprise the support for these systems is enormous. The prospect of large increases in the support investment to maintain the readiness at status quo or to achieve only incremental improvement is alarming, The high cost of readiness today can be traced to the current weapons systems planning, development and acquisition process. This process fails to prioritize the support requirement in the design and procurement phases. In the development community, a large imbalance exists between the priority of performance and the priority of support.
