Supporting Expeditionary Aerospace Forces: Expanded Analysis Of Lantirn Options
Delivery time: 8-12 business days (International)
Product Descriptionthis Analysis Addresses Logistics Structure Alternatives For Meeting Demands For Low Altitude Navigation And Targeting Infrared For Night (Lantirn) Across A Spectrum Of Operational Requirements. The Study Amends Earlier Research With New Data Collected During The Air War Over Serbia By Comparing The Current Decentralized Policy With Consolidated Options In Which Maintenance Capabilities Do Not Deploy. Consolidating The Lantirn Intermediate Maintenance Support System May Enhance Operational Flexibility, Improve Support Responsiveness, And Decrease The Requirements For Highly Skilled Personnel. However, A Regional Support Structure Would Be More Sensitive To Transportation Delays And Require Greater Crossorganizational Communication. New Data Suggest That The Usaf May Not Have Enough Equipment To Support Two Coincident Wars. The Decision To Centralize Or Decentralize Lantirn Repair Operations Hinges On The Capability And Risk Levels The Air Force Is Willing To Accommodate.From The Publisheralthough Much Work Remains To Define And Prepare Air Force Unitsfor Expeditionary Aerospace Force (Eaf) Responsibilities, It Is Clearthat Eaf Concepts Will Play A Central Role In The Future Air Force. Theeaf Relies On Rapidly Deployable, Immediately Employable, Andhighly Flexible Forces To Serve A Strategic Role As An Alternative To Alarge Permanent Forward Presence In Deterring And Responding Toaggressive Acts. Eaf Success Will, To A Great Extent, Depend On Theeffectiveness And Efficiency Of The System Supporting Flyingoperations. The Air Force Has Named Such A Support System One Ofits Six Necessary Core Competencies And Labeled It The Agile Combatsupport (Acs) System.Acs Efficiency And Effectiveness Are Affected By Decisions Madeacross Planning, Programming, And Budgeting System Timelines.Farterm Acs Decisions Affect Support Structures Required To Meetfuture Operational Requirements. Midterm Acs Decisions Affect Thedesign, Development, And Evolution Of The Support Infrastructure Formeeting Operational Requirements Within The Programming Andbudgeting Time Horizons. Nearterm Decisions Affect Where, When,And How Existing Resources Are Employed. Across This Time Spectrum,Logistics Requirements Can Be Satisfied In A Variety Of Ways,Each With Different Costs, Flexibility, Response Times, And Risks. Thisstudy Addresses Logistics Structure Alternatives For Meeting Demandsfor Low Altitude Navigation And Targeting Infrared For Night(Lantirn) Across The Spectrum Of Eaf Operational Requirementsfrom Major Theater Wars To Peacetime Operations And Amends Earlierrand Research With New Data Collected During The Air War Overserbia (Awos).In This Study We Compare The Current Decentralized Policy, In Whichintermediate Maintenance Capabilities Are Deployed With Flyingunits, With Consolidated Options In Which Maintenance Capabilitiesdo Not Deploy. This Dipole Decision Space Offers Many Opportunitieswhile Introducing Multiple Risksall Of Which The Air Force Mustconsider.This Research, Sponsored By The Air Force Deputy Chief Of Staff Forinstallations And Logistics (Af/Il), Was Conducted In The Resourcemanagement Program Of Project Air Force. This And Related Projectsseek To Identify Ways Of Enhancing The Effectiveness Of The Airexpeditionary Force.This Report Should Be Of Interest To Logisticians, Operators, Andmobility Planners Throughout The Air Force. It Is One Of A Seriesaddressing Acs Options To Enhance The Effectiveness Of Eafoperations.
