This book was released on 2011-02-08 with total page 214 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: This functional solution analysis is the third in a trio of documents that the Joint Capabilities Integration and Development System requires for a capabilities-based assessment of intratheater airlift capabilities. The analysis examined nonmateriel options for preserving airlift capacity by delaying the need to recapitalize the fleet. Without viable, enduring nonmateriel solutions, there is a need to evaluate materiel solutions.

Download or read book A Framework for Enhancing Airlift Planning and Execution Capabilities Within the Joint Expeditionary Movement System written by Robert S. Tripp and published by Rand Corporation. This book was released on 2006 with total page 165 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Recent operations have shed light on shortfalls in Air Force intratheater airlift. Using an expanded strategies-to-tasks framework, the authors assess current intratheater airlift processes, organizations, doctrine, training, and systems. This report catalogues identified shortfalls and recommends options for improving the Theater Distribution System. The authors recommend separation of supply, demand, and integrator roles and adoption of a closed-loop planning and execution process.
Download or read book Unmanned Systems Integrated Roadmap FY2011 2036 written by U. S. Department of Defense and published by . This book was released on 2015-10-31 with total page 0 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: U.S. and allied combat operations continue to highlight the value of unmanned systems in the modern combat environment. Combatant Commanders (CCDRs) and warfighters value the inherent features of unmanned systems, especially their persistence, versatility, and reduced risk to human life. The U.S. military Services are fielding these systems in rapidly increasing numbers across all domains: air, ground, and maritime. Unmanned systems provide diverse capabilities to the joint commander to conduct operations across the range of military operations: environmental sensing and battlespace awareness; chemical, biological, radiological, and nuclear (CBRN) detection; counter-improvised explosive device (C-IED) capabilities; port security; precision targeting; and precision strike. Furthermore, the capabilities provided by these unmanned systems continue to expand.

Download or read book Naval Aviation Budgeting written by Edward G. Keating and published by RAND Corporation. This book was released on 2012-09-18 with total page 0 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: In recent years, most Cost Adjustment Sheets (CASs) have increased the Navy's Flying Hour Program (FHP) budget. They also have been far more utilized by the F/A-18 program than by program offices for most other types of naval aircraft. RAND assessed the contribution of CASs to the accuracy of FHP budgets and whether CAS usage is correlated with expenditure-per-flying-hour growth, as well as why CASs have been used more by the F/A-18 program.

Download or read book Sleep Logistics as a Force Multiplier written by Shaun W. Doheney and published by . This book was released on 2004-09-01 with total page 229 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: The purpose of this thesis is to analyze data related to sleep patterns of warfighters deployed to the Southwest Asia (SWA) Area of Operation. To this end, we collected subjective survey data from warfighters operating in Iraq and Kuwait from 25 August - 15 October 2003 (n = 273). Participants were asked about unit-level sleep planning, sleep/wake patterns, and lifestyle factors. Using the survey results, we are able to gain insight regarding the four primary research questions: 1) Is sleep deprivation a significant problem for forces in the SWA region; 2) Do current sleep logistics support a unit s ability to accomplish assigned missions; 3) Are there differences in sleep patterns between subset populations; and 4) Does the current survey method support the research objectives. To address these questions, we used analysis techniques such as principal components analysis, factor analysis, and parametric and nonparametric hypothesis testing. We tested the reliability of the subjective survey results by comparing self-reported survey data with actigraphy data corresponding to the same time period (n = 34 paired observations). This thesis also provides insight regarding the use of sleep logistics as a force multiplier during continuous/sustained operations by discussing known fatigue countermeasures and their role in improving individual and unit performance effectiveness.

Download or read book Army Strategic Planning Guidance 2013 written by and published by . This book was released on 2013-05-03 with total page 23 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: In Jan. 2012, Sec. of Defense Leon E. Panetta issued Sustaining U.S. Global Leadership: Priorities for 21st Century Defense. Key elements of that new strategic guidance were a rebalancing to the Asia-Pacific region while maintaining our commitment to partners in and around the Middle East. It also emphasized developing innovative ways to achieve security objectives, such as combined exercises and other means of building partner capacity and interoperability, and an increased use of rotational presence overseas. The 2012 Army Strategic Planning Guidance (ASPG) provided the initial vision for how the Army could best support the new strategic guidance. The 2013 ASPG is a refinement of that vision, incorporating a year’s worth of study, analysis, and experience. Though in Afghanistan the Army is proceeding to transfer security responsibility to the Afghan National Security Forces, the fight there is not yet finished. The Army has already begun preparing to meet the demands of the rebalance to the Asia-Pacific region and the emphasis on building partner capacity and shaping the security environment as directed by the new Defense strategic guidance. These changes must be made carefully, however, in this time of decreasing budgets. Figures. This is a print on demand report.
