MAF Modernization

Abstract

MAF Modernization has evolved to embrace the tenets of agile development. Specifically, efforts have been combined into the Mission Planning System Agile Global Mobility and Special Mission (GMSM) Program for efficiency across program lines focused on the transition to the Joint Open Mission System (JOMS) architecture. For Air Mobility Command platforms, efforts incorporate improvements to the MAF aircraft through Tactical Airlift Mission Support System (TAMSS) tools, upgraded Link 16 for enhanced situational awareness and evolving employment concepts while continuing the development, testing, and fielding of the Agile Global Mobility (AGM) effort for the modernization of the JMPS Mission Planning Environment (MPE) for the C-5, C-17, C-130, KC-10, KC-135, and KC-46 to account for changes in aircraft Operational Flight Program (OFP) and global command and control as well as operational mission requirements. For Air Combat Command Platforms, efforts continue the modernization of previously fielded mission planning software environments for the E-3, E-8, EC-130, and RC-135. In addition, this effort continues modernization efforts for SMACC CSAR component for the HC-130J and sustainment efforts for the HH-60G helicopters. The GMSM Program is focused on improvements to lethality, survivability, readiness, and affordability across all efforts. Current aircraft OFP changes and evolving MAJCOM employment changes are addressed via agile development with multiple program increments, phase migration of capabilities to the JOMS and migration to the cloud.
