Description
Summary:The primary objective of this study was to provide the Air Force with models of the interactive effects of manpower, spares, and support equipment for a current operational system. Initial tasks established the peacetime data requirements of a current operational fighter, the available sources of data, and the critical variables for the Logistics Composite Model (LCOM) simulations. The simulated environments relate directly to the Air Force base level data, e. g., flying profiles, mission, and resource allocation levels. The majority of the data for this study were obtained from the following sources: Air Force and contractor publications, Maintenance Data Collection (MDC) system, and structured interviews with operations and maintenance personnel. Regression models were developed for significant LCOM variables. The LCOM and the regression models of interaction developed in this study have applicability to design and management issues. (Author)
