• The Information Warfare Planning Cape (IWPC) was intended to be a suite of tools for the Joint/Combined Force Air Component
Commander (J/CFACC) for strategy development and planning. Instead, the Air force terminated sustainment and RDT&E
funding for the IWPC and will rely on project Suter, which meets several of the key performance parameters of IWPC, and the
current capability of telescope network nodal analysis application. (FY 2014, $-5 million; FYDP, $-24 million).
• The monthly military personnel appropriation stipend for all cadets enrolled in the Air Force ROTC was reduced from current
levels to the authorized minimum of $250 (freshmen), $300 (sophomores), and $400 for juniors and seniors.
(FY 2014, $-5 million; FYDP, $-24 million).
• The operations and maintenance enhancement funding in the Language and Culture program for textbooks within the Air Force
JROTC detachments was reduced to historical need. (FY 2014, $-0 million; FYDP, $-21 million).
• The Air Force reduced RDT&E funds related to C-17 production efficiencies, lower costs for many modifications, excess Weapon
System Trainer funding, and ending the fuel efficiency research efforts. (FY 2014, $-0.1 billion; FYDP, $-0.2 billion).
• The Air Force will delay Intercontinental ballistic missile (ICBM) fuse modernization by one year; procurement of Mk21 arming
and fusing assemblies will begin in FY 2019 with full rate production planned in FY 2021. (FY 2014, $-0 million;
FYDP, $-0.2 billion).
• The Air Force cancelled the upgrade to the integrated correlation and display system (ICADS 7) but retains funds to fly-out current
constellation with technological refresh for ground stations. (FY 2014, $-5 million; FYDP, $-0.2 billion).
• The Air Force terminated funding for a portion of Distributed Command and Control Nodes (DC2Ns). (FY 2014, $-2 million;
FYDP, $-63 million).
• The Air Force combined C-130J upgrades for block 7.0 and 8.1 modifications and begins installation in FY 2018, thus delaying
requirements for procurement funding and allowing adequate time to ensure systems operate at designed capability.
(FY 2014, $-52 million; FYDP, $-0.1 billion).
• The Air Force reduced RDT&E and Procurement funding for Communication Navigation Surveillance/Air Traffic Management
(CNS/ATM) upgrades through FY 2018 and maintains funding for 8.33 Khz radios and enhanced mode-S on the remaining
184 mobility air force C-130H aircraft. (FY 2014, $-27 million; FYDP, $-0.2 billion).
