Recommendation Information
CRITICAL NEED FOR SUPPORT- The USAF currently uses the A/M32A-60A Gas Turbine Compressor and A/M32C-10 Air Cycle Machine for ground maintenance and servicing of all legacy fighter aircraft and has been in service for 50 years. This capability requires significant modernization. Escalating Depot level refurbishment costs have skyrocketed in recent years and parts obsolescence concerns continue to impact mission capable status.
STATES IMPACTED – All ANG installations the operate or support the operation of aircraft
MISSION CRITICAL NEED – equipment mission capable rates will continue to plummet eventually affecting sortie generation capability and warfighting ability.
DEPLOYMENTJUSTIFICATION- New equipment utilizing modern technology will dramatically improve fuel savings, reduce mobility footprint and drive down overall maintenance costs and troubleshooting time of technicians.
FUNDING JUSTIFICATION – Dramatically reduced fuel consumption, reduction in deployment airlift requirements and lower maintenance costs of new equipment will lead to significant annual operating cost savings.
USAF FUNDING TO DATE – None
