DOWNLOAD EBOOK →Over the past 25 to 30 years, the active Air Force has made dramatic changes in the organization and structure of fighter aircraft maintenance units, while Air National Guard (ANG) maintenance units have remained substantially the same. The acceptance of the gaining-command concept in 1960 effectively bound the ANG to abide by the training and policy guidelines of the active Air Force. According to this concept each Air National Guard unit is aligned by mission with an active Air Force major command. During peacetime each major command is responsible for providing policy guidelines and monitoring the training of each of its designated units to include conducting operational readiness inspections (ORI). Upon mobilization the various Guard units are integrated with their gaining command to complete a total force structure capable of meeting wartime contingencies. The Vietnam experience taught us some lessons about organizing for combat and training the way we plan to fight. The active tactical air forces (TAF) responded to those lessons learned and to a changing environment by changing the structure of their maintenance organization. The changes that were made could affect the ANG's ability to integrate with the active forces when mobilized and to interact with them during peacetime training, exercises, and deployments.

The model is designed to be used early in the acquisition process when it is desirable to understand the probable total maintenance personnel requirements of proposed weapon systems. MANPOWER requires inputs concerning mission types, sortie rates, sortie lengths, deployment patterns, squadron size, peacetime base sizes, and maintenance workload. The workload can be expressed as maintenance manhours per flying hour or, if more information is available, in terms of mean-time-between-failures and mean-time-to-repair at the second digit work unit code level. Model output includes estimates of personnel requirements for the total force, for individual base size/deployment patterns, for maintenance squadrons, for officers and enlisted personnel, for overhead and supervision, and for major individual shops and groups of work centers.
