Description:
1. This program provides a wide variety of base support items with worldwide application. Examples include servicing platforms, aircraft
arresting systems, compressors with various applications, refrigeration units, heaters, pallets to support Air Force missions, and military working
dogs (used for base and anti-terrorist protection). This equipment provides prime support for all base missions. Lack of funding for these
equipment items limits maintenance capabilities, testing functions, anti-terrorism/security missions, communications capabilities, flight
operations and the ability of Air Force units to meet deployment requirements.
2. FY03 funding procures initial shortages as well as replacement equipment currently approaching obsolescence. All items have an annual
procurement value of less than $5,000,000 and are Code A. Items requested for procurement in FY03 are identified on the following P-40a and
are representative of items to be procured. Items procured during execution may change based on the most critical equipment needed to support
current Air Force mission requirements.
