Munitions Reengineering Initiatives

Abstract

Agile Combat Support is a major Air Staff initiative to ensure that USAF forces respond to global challenges over the coming years with flexibility, rapidity, and decisive use of power. The munitions area is a fundamental and indispensable part of air warfare and Agile Combat Support. The work to be performed under this task results from major restructuring of the munitions functional area and from the new combat roles the Air Force has assumed. This task will provide the expertise and experience to assist the USAF in implementing the recommendations defined in the strategic vision, and in the long-term and near-term objectives of the Agile Combat Support for Munitions study. The objectives of this task assist in the actions necessary to effect reengineering within the Air Force munitions management organization. This task will help HQ USAF/ILMW carry out actions necessary to reengineer the munitions and missile maintenance personnel system; evaluate and plan for agile munitions transportation and storage; assess logistics support for new munitions; and review munitions management and C2 relationships.
