Creating a Joint Aviation Engineering and Flight Test Organization
Abstract
The Department of Defense does not have a joint aviation engineering and flight test (JAEFT) organization, yet each service has its own aviation engineering organizations and multiple flight test organizations. As a result, the Joint Requirements Oversight Council (JROC) does not have a single point of contact within each Service if faced with a joint aviation issue. This project will argue that a joint aviation engineering and flight test (JAEFT) organization is necessary to prevent duplication of effort within and among the services, to ensure joint compatibility where appropriate, and to standardize engineering practices. Having this organization will result in reduced acquisition timelines, reduced costs, and improved joint warfighting capabilities.
