Description
Description — Base Maintenance and Support Equipment
This portfolio program provides a wide variety of base support equipment items with worldwide application. Equipment includes, but is not limited to, Aircraft Arresting Systems (AAS), Base Logistics and Support Equipment (BLSE), Tools and Industrial Plant Equipment, Cargo Pallet and Net Systems, Base Generator Power Systems, and Deployable Debrief Facilities (DDF). This equipment provides prime support for all base missions. Lack of funding for these equipment items limits safe flight operations, aircraft maintenance and testing capabilities, anti-terrorism and security missions, communications capabilities, and the ability of Air Force units to meet deployment requirements. Funding for this exhibit contained in the following program elements: 0101110F, 0207521F, 0202834F, 0502834F, 0502844F, 0802834F, 0901279F.
Justification
Justification — Base Maintenance and Support Equipment
FY26 will procure the following: Aircraft Arresting Systems (AAS): AAS are critical to safe flight operations and directly support USAF F-15, F-16, F-22, F-35, USN, and allied partner fighter aircraft equipped with a tailhook system. These systems are critical during an aborted take-off, In-Flight Emergency, or hydraulic/brake failures. AAS including but is not limited to Barrier Arresting Kit (BAK) BAK-14M Mobile Aircraft Arresting Systems (MAAS), and Type-H. AAS are required for all base and forward deployed operations, enabling the execution of the National Defense Strategy. Cargo Pallets and Nets (SE&V): Cargo Pallets & Nets provide an expedient means of loading and unloading cargo on transport aircraft across the DoD. Pallets & Nets also secure cargo to maintain aircraft balance which is crucial to safety of flight. 661 users across the DoD rely on Pallets & Nets to carry out their primary mission, through which capability and equipment are transported to all parts of the globe, enabling the execution of our National Defense Strategy. Small Munitions Trailers, Aircraft Engine Trailers (SE&V): These trailer programs support the loading, moving and shipping of all numerous verities of Munitions and aircraft Engines. Small Munitions Trailers program provides trailers (and associated accessories) capable of carrying up to 15,000 lbs of conventional munitions and up to 5,500 lbs of nuclear munitions in direct support to aircraft operations. These trailers carry bombs, missiles (Air-to-Air and Air-to-Ground), all calibers of ammunition, all countermeasures all decoys and practice bombs. Small Munitions Trailers directly support B-1, B-2, B-52, A-10, F-15, F16, F-22, C-5, C-17, C-130, AC-130, KC-46, KC-10 and KC-135 rated to carry munitions as cargo. The existing 40+ year old trailers have significant reliability and obsolescence issues as well as high overhaul repair costs. Currently, the cost to complete a depot overhaul of a legacy munition trailer is nearly twice the estimated procurement cost of a new trailer. Base Logistics and Support Equipment (BLSE) (SE&V): BLSE is critical to safe flight operations and necessary for in-garrison and forward deployed locations. If equipment is not readily available, it can cause mission stoppage and severe degradation of operations. BLSE includes, but is not limited to, Flightline Fire Extinguishers, Hydraulic Rescue and Salvaging Kits, Fuel Tank Seal Kits, Automatic Gas Alarms, Restricted Area Anti-Intrusion Alarms, Self-Contained Breathing Apparatus, High Pressure Storage Tanks, Pipeline Repair Kits and Concrete Mixing Plants. Base Calibration Standards (equipment) (AFMETCAL): Funds calibration standards (equipment) for the Air Force Primary Standards Laboratory and 65 Precision Measurement Laboratories (PMEL) AF wide. These standards ensure PMEL measurements are traceable through the AFPSL to the National Institute of Standards and Technology. This traceability is critical to safety-of flight and sustainment of all AF weapon systems/base ops to include vehicle ops, communications, civil engineering, biomedical, and mobility TMDE. Enabling support for over 673k TMDE items for airlift, fighter, missile, nuclear deterrence, and cyber defense missions. Other Base Maint & SE: Paint Booth/Air Compressor for LO Restoration Facility; Compressed Air Eqt for Wash Rack Facility; Uninterrupted Power Supply (UPS) for A/C Maint Unit Facility for B-21
