Acquisition: Allegations Concerning Mismanagement of the Aerial Targets Program

Abstract

Air Force acquisition and flight test officials affiliated with the Gulf Range Drone Control System Program and the DoD test flight community should read this report. The report addresses allegations to the Defense Hotline concerning mismanagement of the Aerial Targets Program. We performed the audit in response to allegations concerning waste and mismanagement by the Air Force Aerial Targets Systems Program Office. The Hotline allegations were submitted in three letters by an anonymous complainant and addressed concerns about the lack of participation and support by the Air Force Aerial Targets Systems Program Office for the Multi-Service Target Control System Program. Appendix B shows the six primary areas of concern that were identified in the three letters and Appendix C shows the audit response to those concerns.
