Proposal Statement
The ANG currently uses outside vendors to resupply LOX and O2 Gas that supports the aircraft and aircrew oxygen requirements
- The current LOX resupply is done by either airlift or using local vendors, creating a security risk due to outside vendors overseas. This system will allow the base gases unit to produce their own O2 and LOX on base and abolish the requirement to fly O2 and LOX to deployed locations

Recommendation Information
CRITICAL NEED FOR SUPPORT- The ANG currently uses outside vendors to resupply LOX and O2 Gas that supports the aircraft and
aircrew oxygen requirements
STATES IMPACTED - All ANG C-130 and KC-135 Aircraft at CONUS and OCONUS sites
MISSION CRITICAL NEED - The current LOX resupply is done by either airlift or using local vendors, creating a security risk due to outside vendors leaving and entering the bases with flammable oxygen. Additionally, this policy is extremely debilitating to the Operations and Maintenance budget for the aircraft
DEPLOYMENTJUSTIFICATION- COGS-LOX will enable ANG logistics and maintenance to create LOX on the bases, within security, at a rate of 200 Liters per day (50 Gallons)
FUNDING JUSTIFICATION - Current COGS-LOX 200 liters per day (50 gallons) cost approximately 1.8M per unit - Payback is less than one year based on current budgets in the Operations and Maintenance fund
USAF FUNDING TO DATE - USAF is considering this capability for their bases as well
ANG REQUIREMENT - Reduce the cost of LOX and Gas replenishment costs as well as making the bases more secure from terrorist attacks
