Description:
This program includes the procurement of a vehicle group consisting of commercial trucks with double rear doors as well as delivery vans with
cut-off cabs and full-width rear doors and windows. Defining characteristics include two-wheel drive, automatic transmissions and diesel
engines. The primary requirement for this vehicle is to support aircraft sortie generation. It also keeps cargo/supplies out of inclement weather,
transports ammunition and weapons for combat training, provides mobile tool crib support for the flight line and serves as transportation for
air/flight crew personnel and maintenance crews. Failure to provide this vehicle can dimininish the Air Force’s capability to support customer’s
need for repositioning assets for reception of forces supporting Air Expeditionary Forces (AEF).
Items requested in FY03 are identified on the P-40A and are representative of items to be procured. Items procured during execution may
change based on critical equipment needed to support current Air Force mission requirements. The total Air Force FY03 procurement
requirement is 1,496 vehicles against an inventory objective of 4,541. Fiscal constraints limit the FY03 procurement to 297 units.
