CRITICAL NEED FOR SUPPORT - The vast majority of ANG C-17s are equipped with the legacy On Board Inert Gas Generating System I or I.I. This system has obsolescence issues and high failure rates driving increased costs for spares, increased maintenance manpower to troubleshoot and maintain, and reduced reliability for operators in contested environments.
STATES IMPACTED - All ANG Aircraft at CONUS and OCONUS sites
MISSION CRITICAL NEED - Potential benefits can be realized to include reduced troubleshooting time, lower logistics costs, and increased aircraft availability. Reduced man hours can also be realized due to reduced time troubleshooting. Active Duty C-17 fleet has either been equipped with this system due to production cut in or through funded modification for their fleet.
