By Peltz et al.

The objective of the Expeditionary Aerospace strength (EAF) thought is to depend on speedily deployable, instantly employable, powerful and versatile air and area applications to flexibly serve the strategic function everlasting ahead presence previously performed in deterring and quick responding to aggression. This document assesses how good replacement logistics approaches and organizational designs for assembly F-15 avionics upkeep calls for around the spectrum of EAF operations aid this idea. possible choices variety from the present decentralized association linked to the coverage of deploying intermediate-maintenance services with the flying devices to consolidated, non-deploying constructions. The authors locate that consolidating F-15 avionics intermediate upkeep and assisting operations from neighborhood help bases will be extra conducive to attaining the EAF aim than the present constitution.

We therefore elected to use these calculated uptime rates regardless of the number of testers modeled in a shop. Higher numbers of collocated testers would probably offer greater cannibalization benefit, so the model may slightly overestimate the number of necessary testers for support plans that consolidate maintenance resources. Similarly, if a squadron had to deploy independently with one string, the uptime would probably be lower than that used in the model because some level of cannibalization is probably occurring when all of the squadrons are home at Seymour Johnson or Lakenheath.

1, left). 1, center), which we accomplish through a two-step process. First, a model converts the operational requirements into the demand for avionics components—the general support requirements. Second, a set of resource-specific models convert the general support requirements into individual resource requirements for maintenance equipment, maintenance personnel, transportation resources, spare parts, and infrastructure changes given a support structure design. Emphasis is placed here on models that either were newly developed or required substantial change or parameter modification.

Depending on the tester type, these bases have one, two, or three testers. 5 Generally, the more testers a shop has, the more opportunity there would be to cannibalize one tester to keep the other testers operational. Since only one data point (a data point is a combination of tester uptime and the number of collocated testers) was available, however, for most testers we could not confidently estimate the uptime effect of cannibalization produced by varying the number of collocated testers. We therefore elected to use these calculated uptime rates regardless of the number of testers modeled in a shop.
