TO WASHINGTON
ometimes opportunities present
themselves where, to use the old clich,
"you can kill two birds with one stone," or
perhaps to improve upon it, "you can feed two
birds with one bag of seed."
The defense aircraft and related equipment
being utilized in Afghanistan and Iraq by
American military forces require frequent
maintenance and modernization. The U.S.
government awards billions of dollars per year to
companies, both large and small, for the
completion of these tasks. Rightfully so, these
contracts generally are won on the basis of the
most competitive bid.
But what if we could achieve some of these
essential support goals, while at the same time
accomplishing a humanitarian purpose? The
humanitarian act I am referring to is helping to
rebuild the city of New Orleans and the
surrounding communities by investing in the
people of the Gulf Coast region.
It has been almost three years since
Hurricane Katrina devastated the area. New
Orleans may have sustained the greatest
physical damage, but the entire region has
suffered by having to absorb thousands of
displaced families. And, for many, the crisis
continues. So what's to be done?
Despite some opinions in Washington, the
people of New Orleans, both current and
displaced, are not looking for a handout. No one
dreams of someday living in a FEMA trailer with
its associated health risks. On the contrary,
provided with the opportunity, these hardworking
folks can pull themselves up out of the
economic depression left behind by the
floodwaters. They just need a chance to provide
for themselves and their families. This used to
be known as giving your fellow American a
break.
It is the noblest purpose of government to
provide for citizens who have suffered at the
hands of fate. But the question of "at what cost"
usually is an overwhelming consideration. One
clear answer is to steer defense aircraft

contracts, especially aircraft maintenance


contracts, to this region of the country, helping
to provide some of the jobs needed.
But what about the quality of the work?
Certainly, nothing is more important than
providing top of the line maintenance for our
warfighting aircraft. Why should we risk the
possibility of inferior services?
The good news is we do not have to. I
recently had the opportunity to visit the area
from Houston to New Orleans and discovered
state of the art aircraft support facilities rebuilt by
a dedicated workforce. The Lake Charles area
of Louisiana is home to a huge maintenance
facility once owned by Boeing and now operated
by the Northrop Grumman Corporation.
Politicians, such as State Senator Willie
Mount, have taken the lead in working hand and
hand with industry and the local workforce to
create an environment of excellence in defense
aircraft sustainment and modernization.
Within hours of the hurricane's end, workers
at this facility came to the hangars to rebuild
their workplace, in many cases, before attending
to the damage to their own homes. This
dedicated team has reconstructed the facility to
be even better than it was before - more secure
structures house exceptional machinery and
topnotch management.
You don't have to take my word for all this, go
see this Northrop Grumman facility for yourself.
For information on this facility, visit
www.ts.northropgrumman.com and enter "Lake
Charles" in the search bar.
So here's my message to decision makers in
Washington: This is a clear opportunity to shine.
You can do what has to be done and, at the
same time, give American citizens who really
need a break and deserve it a step up.

INNOVATING
TO
MEET
THE

ENERGY
CHALLENGE
By Bill Anderson

AAD asked key representatives of the United States Air Force about significant steps the service has made to increase its energy efficiency, decrease
its environmental impact, and develop alternative energy sources. Following is an Air Force report on its ongoing environmental efforts, including
investments in innovative technologies and public-private partnerships, that may provide opportunities to companies offering related products and services.

n his January 2007 State of the Union


Address, President George W. Bush stated,
"For too long, our nation has been
dependent on foreign oil. And this
dependence leaves us more vulnerable to hostile
regimes, and to terrorists - who could cause huge
disruptions in oil shipments, raise the price of oil,
and do harm to our economy." The president,
Congress, and many other key leaders in
America have challenged the country to reduce
our dependence on foreign oil. This is a challenge
that the United States Air Force is facing head on.
A CLEAR MANDATE
The mission of the Air Force is to provide for the
defense of the United States of America and its
global interests - to fly and fight in air, space, and
cyberspace. In recent years, rapidly increasing
costs for energy have significantly added to the
Air Force's operational expenses, diverting
funds that otherwise would have supported
its recapitalization and modernization to
further national security. In each of the last two
years, the Air Force spent approximately $7
billion to fuel its aircraft and provide power to
its installations.
As a result of these concerns and rising costs,
Air Force officials have established a clear
mandate to reduce energy consumption and
increase the availability of domestic alternative
energy sources. To address these imperatives,
the Air Force is making energy a consideration in
everything it does.
In response to rising energy costs, energy
security considerations, and efforts to reduce
greenhouse gas emissions, Air Force personnel
have implemented an energy strategy that
consists of:
1. Investing in new technologies
and domestic resources to increase the supply
and use of secure fuel and clean energy.
2. Reducing the overall energy demands of
Air Force efforts and installations.
3. Changing the Air Force culture to ensure
that these energy objectives are accomplished
while maintaining mission readiness.

AVIATION AFTERMARKET DEFENSE - SPRING 2008

ALTERNATIVE FUELS
To meet these challenges, the Air Force is
investing in an ongoing effort to research, test,
and certify new technologies designed to reduce
dependence on foreign oil by providing an
alternative domestic fuel supply. In 2007, a
synthetic jet fuel blend was tested and certified
in the B-52. As of early 2008, the fuel blend was
in the process of being tested in the B-1, C-17,
and F-22 aircraft, as well as in various ground
support equipment.
By 2011, the Air Force expects to have tested
and certified such a synthetic jet fuel blend in its
entire aircraft fleet. Ultimately, by 2016, the goal is
for the Air Force to meet 50 percent of its
domestic aviation fuel needs through a synthetic
fuel blend that utilizes alternative fuel resources
produced in the United States.
An added requirement focuses on energy
efficiency and environmental concerns: The
synthetic fuel purchases are to be sourced from
suppliers with manufacturing facilities that
engage in effective reuse processes and carbon
dioxide capture.
CLEAN ENERGY
The Air Force has aggressively implemented a
strategy to generate electricity on its bases
using more solar, wind, and geothermal energy.
Energy experts also are currently examining the
potential of nuclear power sources for possible
use on air bases.
The Air Force currently is the top purchaser of
green power in the federal government. In a
recently completed project, a photovoltaic array
was completed at Nellis Air Force Base in
Nevada; this state of the art solar energy system
is the largest such installation in the Americas.
Ongoing projects include exploring large-scale
solar opportunities at three other bases in the
desert Southwest.
Also under consideration is a public-private

partnership to build and operate a coal-to-liquid


fuel manufacturing plant at a base in Montana. As
leaders in innovative public-private partnerships,
the Air Force also seeks to lease under-utilized
land to environmentally responsible private
owners and operators.
WORKING TOGETHER
While a long-term commitment to supply-side
alternative energy sources and integrated
demand-side energy efficiency measures are vital
elements in the Air Force energy strategy, these
efforts represent only part of the equation.
The Air Force also has instigated a program
to change its consumption culture, so that all
Airmen become energy conservation stewards in
both their military and personal lives. By instilling
energy awareness into the Airman's lifestyle
through leadership, training, curricula, and
communication, the intention is to foster a
community of innovation that considers energy in
all activities and operations. To date, these efforts
have reduced energy intensity in Air Force
facilities by almost 18 percent since 2003.
Solving the energy challenges of tomorrow,
while protecting the environment for future
generations, requires concentrated efforts,
dedication, and ground-breaking technology.
Through its ongoing leadership and focused
efforts, the United States Air Force is expected
to be a driving force in successfully meeting both
its own and the nation's energy challenges of
the future.
The Honorable
William C. Anderson
is the Assistant
Secretary of the
United States Air
Force for
Installations,
Environment, and Logistics. He serves as

ISRAELI UAVS
Aftermarket
Lessons Learned
By Marc Daugherty

Yar Dubester, General Manager


Israel Aerospace Industries (IAI),
Malat Division

fter mobile Egyptian and Syrian SAM


units had nearly pinned down the
entire Israeli Air Force (IAF) in the first
days of the 1973 Yom Kippur War, the IAF
turned to Yar Dubester and his colleagues at
the state-owned Israel Aerospace Industries
(IAI) to help it develop a new real-time airborne
reconnaissance solution. The answer was
the Scout unmanned air vehicle (UAV), the first
of an extensive and distinguished Israeli
UAV dynasty.
At the time, Dubester was a young
electronics engineer employed at IAI, which had

been founded in the 1950s with an emphasis on


Israeli technological self-reliance. IAI built
aircraft and missiles and provided maintenance
and upgrade programs for imported and
domestic defense platforms.
A founding father of Israel's UAV program,
Dubester now has 32 years of UAV engineering
expertise. Over the years, he has served as
Chief Engineer and Program Manager on the
Hunter UAV Program, a system widely used
both by the U.S. Army and by European
customers. Dubester currently is the Division
Head of IAI's UAV department, known as

MALAT, a Hebrew acronym for "UAV" and the


name of the IAI plant where its UAVs are
designed and manufactured.
THE MANNED AND UNMANNED
AFTERMARKET
Israel, a tiny country about the size of
Massachusetts, has become a world-class
trendsetter in UAV designs. Dubester believes
that understanding the UAV aftermarket is key
to designing a successful UAV program. From
his office at the MALAT factory, straddling Ben
Gurion International Airport in Lod, Israel,
Dubester outlines key differences between the
manned and unmanned aftermarket.
According to Dubester "UAVs, unlike
manned aircraft, often need to take off from
unprepared airfields, smack in the middle of the
theater of operations. This requires us to

Israel, a tiny country

designs
provide the customer with services specific
to the UAV sector. UAV aftermarket
services not only cover the aircraft, but also
include servicing the payloads and
communication systems.
"The customer may wish to operate our
UAV systems in the midst of a combat area.
For obvious reasons, we can't send our
technical crews to service and operate in the
heat of battle and thereby risk direct involvement in foreign operations. Consequently,
we've had to design extensive training
know-how so as to teach the customer or
its domestic industry players to perform the
full spectrum of maintenance tasks. So, we
would typically train the customer to execute
all levels of maintenance, from the operational
level carried out in the field (O-level
maintenance), via intermediate level
maintenance (I-level maintenance), through to
depot level (D-level maintenance)."
Dubester continues, O-level maintenance
includes the replacement of parts in the field
but without opening electro-optical payloads,
which require laboratory conditions. O-level
maintenance can also include the replacement
of a computer circuit card."
AVIATION AFTERMARKET DEFENSE - SPRING 2008

DESIGN IS KEY
Elbit Systems (NASDAQ: ESLT), another
Israeli UAV and defense systems powerhouse,
is one of IAI's rivals for the domination of the
global UAV market. The company boasts that it
is now the Israel Defense Forces' (IDF) leading
UAV supplier.
UAV Programs Director Itai Toren, of Elbit
Systems, expands on Dubester's point.
According to Toren, "Unlike manned aircraft,
UAV systems come as whole systems, not
mere air vehicles. In addition to necessary air
vehicle maintenance, you need to consider
servicing and upgrading ground control
stations, payloads, communication, and ground
support equipment. All these additional items
require a well-planned after-sales package. In
a manned aircraft, we can take it for granted
that the pilot can access engine, communications, and other settings. With a UAV,
tweaking the aircraft in flight gets trickier
and requires a good deal of line-of-sight
and beyond-line-of-sight data links - all
requiring adapted design input with the
aftermarket in mind."
Toren likes to emphasize how the
aftermarket is factored in the UAV's design
from day one. He says, "Easy maintenance lies
at the heart of our UAV design philosophy. Our
aircraft are covered with removable panels,
making all the components widely visible and
accessible to the technicians. Our software

applications are designed like onion layers:


One functionality can easily get installed onto
the previous, so software upgrades are made
fast and convenient.
"Our rule of thumb in design," says Toren,
"is to listen to the customer carefully and
design the UAV package to tightly fit the
buyers' needs with respect to aftermarket
specs. Some customers want to remain
completely autonomous from Elbit, and we
furnish them with the wherewithal to perform
depot-level maintenance alone. Others prefer
to keep costs down; there again, we have the
clients' aftermarket costs in mind. For instance,
our Skylark I mini-UAVs come with few moving
parts, the engine being electric. The small UAV
is assembled [much] as [is] a Lego play set,
with the pieces easily replaceable."

procurement of 780 air vehicles and associated


equipment. By the time the U.S. Army
abandoned the program in 1987, due to
technical snags, delays, and budget overruns,
Aquila had cost the Pentagon "close to $2
billion," says Dubester. One of the DOD's
solutions to its UAV needs was to acquire IAI's
Pioneer tactical UAVs, which the U.S. Navy
later successfully deployed during Desert
Storm in some 300 missions.
Dubester further explains, "Inexperienced
UAV designers can't know what their clients'
engine maintenance requirements are. The

hangar.

IAI's Dubester quips, however, that some


UAV manufacturers design their aircraft
illogically like "an old car I used to drive - to
replace a light bulb, you needed to dismantle
the entire front end of the car."
PRICING THE AFTERMARKET
Dubester stresses how IAI's experience helps it
land international UAV tenders by zeroing in
accurate after-sales pricing forecasts. He
explains, "IAI's UAV division has become
particularly apt at pricing the aftermarket
services required for any UAV systems tender,
thanks to our decades-long experience. This
sort of expertise has become critical in
developing a sustainable UAV business. A
UAV manufacturer needs to accurately predict
[the] amount of technical glitches and [the]
maintenance [that will be] required in order to
draft a credible tender offer, knowledge that is
gained with experience only. The American
Aquila program, for instance, collapsed namely
because [of] a lack of understanding of
aftermarket requirements."
He refers to the failed Aquila program
begun by the U.S. Department of Defense
(DOD) in 1979. It was originally estimated that
the cost would be about $700 million for the
6

engine manufacturer may stipulate a certain


upkeep regimen (for instance, X overhaul
required for Y amount of engine time);
however, our experience shows these
stipulations are wrong in various climate and
deployment environments. Only experienced
UAV manufacturers, such as ourselves, know
how to correctly assess the true lifecycle costs
of any aircraft over and above what the
engine's manufacturer may prescribe. You can
infer projections on lifecycle costs from this
example on other systems, too, for instance,
ground control stations and payloads. We

calculate repair and maintenance costs and


delays between real-time critical failures, for
instance, which vary according to the client's
use and environment.
He concludes, When we operated our early
UAV types, such as the Scout and the Pioneer,
we noticed the skill level of the remote control
operators affected the maintenance costs.
Hence, we had trouble forecasting our
maintenance requirements, because the UAVs
used to wear out faster depending on the
person landing them: The harder the landing,
the greater the wear-and-tear the aircraft
AVIATION AFTERMARKET DEFENSE - SPRING 2008

Industries, Ltd.

sustained over time. That's why, years ago, we


introduced automated take-off and landing for
all our UAVs."
THE GROWING UAV UPGRADES MARKET
Elbit's Toren is very upbeat about the future of
the UAV upgrades market. "We forecast that
UAV upgrades will grow to equal about two
thirds of the general UAV acquisitions market.
In proportional terms, this would be a UAV
upgrades market size analogous to that of the
manned military aircraft sector.
"The market for UAV upgrades is young
and growing. It doesn't only include routine
maintenance. Customers come to us with
requests for upgrades because of evolving
mission requirements and obsolescing
components. With some UAV platforms getting
bigger and more expensive, we expect
customers to seek comprehensive upgrade
packages, as was the case with combat
aircraft, for instance.
"Furthermore, the customers are
discovering new applications for UAVs all the
time, requiring such upgrades as airborne
control systems for UAVs and heliborne or
AVIATION AFTERMARKET DEFENSE - SPRING 2008

seaborne data links to UAVs. We


also can design upgrade packages
for UAVs that are not Elbit's. It all
depends what the customer is
looking for." He adds, "Certain
upgrades to non-Elbit UAVs can be
upgraded only with the assistance of
the original manufacturer or by
getting the required data package."
Elbit also offers a variety of
simulation packages, from
"embedded" UAV mission simulation
software integrated into ground
control stations deployed in the field,
to specialized UAV Training Centers
"which can resemble large conventional aircraft
simulation facilities," says Toren.
ALTERNATIVES TO BUYING AND THE PBL
TREND
Both IAI and Elbit emphasize alternatives to
straightforward buying. Elbit's Toren says, "The
customers may choose to lease UAV systems
on a power-by-the-hour basis or pick out any of
an assortment of leasing schemes, which may
include purchasing system availability time

(including air vehicles and ground control


stations), along with our own operation or
maintenance crews operating the UAV system
at the location of the customer's choosing."
IAI's Dubester also stresses, "Another
model for UAV servicing is where the
customer buys the spare parts. And, of
course, we guarantee their usability for a
certain timeframe, generally a predefined
number of years."

Defense
Trading
with the United States

Great Britain has been a long-time ally of the United States,


and a treaty between the two nations would make mutual
trading of defense weapons easier. As of early 2008, it
remained to be seen whether the U.S. Senate would agree.
By Christina Martin

s anyone in the industry can


attest, doing business with the
United States in matters
relating to the exporting of
unclassified defense-related products is at
the very least a complicated process.
Faced with the challenges that accompany
difficult export control policies, those in
charge of procurement for the military
services of the United Kingdom and other
nations have expressed frustrations at the
obstacles blocking access to U.S. military
technologies and services.
As a sign of good faith, the United
States began exploring alternate
approaches to international defense trade
more than a decade ago. At first, there
were talks of special export waivers that
would be granted to selected allied
countries. Now, more than a decade later,
discussions have continued, although in a
different direction. This time, a trade treaty
is on the table, which many hope will help
cut down on bureaucratic barriers between
the United States and the United Kingdom
and Australia.
HURDLING EXPORT CONTROLS
The International Traffic in Arms
16

Regulations (ITAR), part of the Arms Export


Control Act, were enacted to provide
congressional oversight of the export of
defense-related products, services, and
information as documented on the U.S.
Munitions List. Since the inception of ITAR,
these complicated regulations have
confused, frustrated, and even angered
exporters and their customers.
ITAR supporters include the U.S.
Department of Defense, as well as
lawmakers in Congress, who insist
compliance is necessary to maintain a level
of security for the United States and to
protect U.S. technology from falling into the
wrong hands. ITAR's opposition includes
members of industry who argue the
regulations are unnecessarily complex and
actually hinder the U.S. trade economy.
Members of academia also oppose ITAR,
insisting the rules prevent some of the best
international students from studying within
the United States and contributing to the
technological advances that support the
nation's military forces.
The time needed to invest in obtaining
an export license has been noted as one of
the main problems in complying with ITAR.
License approval has been cited as taking

anywhere from 20 to more than 60 days.


The U.S. State Department has blamed the
increase in requests and inadequate
department staffing to meet the demand for
the growing delay, as each request must
be reviewed by trained licensing officers (of
which there are about 34).
In 2003, approximately 55,000 license
requests were processed by the
Department of State. By 2007, that number
had jumped to about 80,000, but the
number of licensing officers in the
department was not increased in proportion
to this substantially increased workload.
The State Department estimated in a 2006
report that for every 8 percent increase in
the number of licensing requests since
2003, three additional licensing officers
were needed. However, the desired fifteen
additional officers have yet to be added to
the State Department's staff.
Although a solution that satisfies both
sides seems unlikely, there have been a
few attempts at granting special privileges
to applicants from the United Kingdom and
Australia, two of the nations most closely
allied with the United States. In the 1990s,
in context of the international cooperation
on development of the F-35 Lightning II,
AVIATION AFTERMARKET DEFENSE - SPRING 2008

also known as the Joint Strike Fighter (JSF), the


U.K. and Australian governments (two of the
nine major partner countries involved in the
project, including the United States) grew
increasingly irritated with the stranglehold the
United States held on its technology.
The arduous task of requesting export
licenses from the Department of State resulted in
precious time lost and had a negative impact on
the mutual respect and trust between the allies.
As a result, in 2000, the United States promised
the United Kingdom and Australia an ITAR

developed to potentially relax the arms export


controls, specifically giving exceptions to
"governments of treaty allies and qualified
companies within those countries that have
export controls comparable in scope and
effectiveness to those of the U.S."
One reason for the opposition to this
legislation was the belief in the need for tighter
security controls of defense articles in a post9/11 world. Another reason included fears of
unsanctioned third-party transfers. Granting
waivers would make it easier for the illegal

The time needed to invest in obtaining an


export license has been noted as one of
the main problems in complying with ITAR
waiver that would give them full access to the
technology used in the JSF. However, after a 5year battle, the U.S. House of Representatives
ultimately denied the waiver. Other partner
countries also complained of the strict export
controls of the United States government,
although Norway was the only country to make
several threats to withdraw from the Joint Strike
Fighter program.
Although not a cure-all, the proposed
legislation, known as the Defense Trade Security
Initiative (DTSI), would have created a one-stop
streamlined system for licensing, rather than
requiring separate license requests for individual
items, as ITAR currently demands. According to
the DTSI summary sheet, the initiative was

Jacques Gansler,
Former Under Secretary of Defense for Acquisition

trafficking of weapons and military equipment to


"rogue governments, criminal organizations, and
terrorist factions," according to a report written
by the chairmen of the House International
Relations and U.S. Armed Services committees
in 2004.
Since the defeat of DTSI, however, President
George W. Bush has tried a different tactic. In
2006, President Bush and then British Prime
Minister Tony Blair began talk of a defenserelated trade treaty that they hoped would
achieve the same goals.
TRADE TREATY TALKS
As a way to skirt another potential veto by the
House of Representatives, President Bush opted
out of again trying to pass legislation. Instead, he
drew up a trade treaty with Britain, and later,
Australia. (Treaties only have to be ratified by
the U.S. Senate and do not have to go through
the House of Representatives.)
Trade treaties between the United States and
the United Kingdom/Australia would provide for
smoother export processes, reducing barriers to
acquisition of defense products and expediting
the sale of arms and technology. Essentially,
except for major arms sales - defense products
worth more than $25 million, as well as sales of
batched items worth more than $100 million - the
treaties would eliminate the need for U.S.
companies exporting defense-related goods,
information, and services to Britain and Australia
to obtain an ITAR license. The British treaty also

would continue Britain's policy of not requiring a


license for U.K. defense equipment and services
being exported to the United States.
President Bush and Prime Minister Blair
signed the defense treaty in June 2007, with
hopes of it being ratified by the end of the year.
The trade treaty with Australia was signed in
September. As of February 2008, both treaties
were still awaiting ratification by the U.S. Senate.
Critics of the treaties are leery of the ease
with which arms trades can go undetected.
Although 99.9 percent of Great Britain's
approximate 8,500 license requests were
approved last year, a representative at the U.S.
Government Accountability Office said that in the
context of licensing exemptions, it would become
easier to divert items without detection. This
could lead to complicated investigations and
possibly serious consequences at a later date.
Balancing the critics are supporters of
opening the trade lines to the closest allies of the
United States. Jacques Gansler, former Under
Secretary of Defense for Acquisition, supported
the potential joining of the allied militaries at a
July 2007 Atlantic Council conference. Gansler
suggests that the United States is not the only
producer of defense products, and relying on
other countries to supply defense products does
not necessarily compromise the nation's
security.
"There's not a single weapon system today
that you can take apart and not find foreign parts
in it," Gansler says. "We are dependent. We are
not necessarily vulnerable though . . . . It's time
for us to take advantage of globalization, rather
than to continue to hurt ourselves as a nation
economically and militarily."
HERCULEAN COLLABORATION
While President Bush and Prime Minister Blair
were working out the details of a possible treaty,
a new alliance of sorts sprung up. The Hercules
Integrated Operational Support (HIOS) project is
a joint effort between the U.K. Ministry of
Defence (MOD) and several U.S. and U.K.
industry competitors. HIOS is the first long-term,
integrated contract awarded by the MOD, where
industry is contracted to provide aircraft support.
The program consists of management that
stretches over eight locations in both the United
States and the United Kingdom.
AVIATION AFTERMARKET DEFENSE - SPRING 2008

This program, worth approximately $2.94


billion, will keep the Royal Air Force (RAF) fleet
of twenty Hercules C-130Ks and twenty-four C130Js in a steady state of readiness and
guarantee availability of these aircraft to
frontlines operations as needed, 24 hours a day,
365 days a year. The partnership also will
provide spares, along with simulator and engine
support, until 2030. This amalgamation of efforts

After the inevitable hurdles had been


conquered, this joint effort between U.S. and
U.K. companies appeared to be heading in a
successful direction. "From an industry
perspective, HIOS is very successful," Sneller
says. "It has stimulated innovation in the
knowledge that it will be acted upon, allowed
investment in infrastructure and planning,
encouraged a much closer dialog with the MOD,

Theres not a single weapon system today


that you can take apart and not
find foreign parts in it
is expected to drastically reduce the time once
needed to effectively repair and maintain aircraft.
The MOD is funding HIOS, and it will supply
commodity spares and frontline forward
maintenance for the aircraft. Also involved in
the project is Marshall Aerospace, a company
based in Cambridge, England. As the prime
contractor, it will provide depth maintenance and
legacy spares. The other two major players
are Rolls-Royce, which will provide off-wing
support for the AE 2100 and T56 engines, and
Lockheed Martin, which will manage the entire
supply chain.
Surprisingly, although ITAR potentially may
cause a few hiccups in schedule delays between
the international countries, John Sneller, head of
the HIOS initiative, does not think there should
be too many problems due to the regulations.
"ITAR creates a potential schedule impact as we
go through the administrative process of seeking
[U.S.] State Department approvals," Sneller
says, "but otherwise is not a barrier to HIOS and
related programs." However, if the trade treaty
were to be ratified by the U.S. Senate, Sneller
comments, "[it] should significantly ease the
contracting path of working together on future
HIOS developments, particularly in the capability
insertion area."
AVIATION AFTERMARKET DEFENSE - SPRING 2008

and streamlined almost all parts of RAF


Hercules support. Moreover, budgets have
stabilized, and performance is understood at all
levels and [is] straightforward to measure."
WORKING TOGETHER
Although ITAR may have created an increased
level of security in defense trading, it also has
had a negative impact on the United States's
relationship with its allies and key players within
these nations. The HIOS project was able to
come together independently of pending
changes in U.S. trade arrangements, however, it
is likely that some adjustments still will have to
be made in the regulatory system.
Will those changes involve one or more
treaties? Will the U.S. government try once
again to pass applicable legislation? If so,
how long will all of this take? And what will be
the results?
It remains to be seen what becomes of the
trade regulations that affect the military aviation
marketplace. The best-case scenario will be a
compromise that satisfies both those in industry
and in the government.

LATE BREAKING
UPDATE

Photo by Buzz Shaddy (Boeing)

Northrop Grumman and its partner, the


European Aeronautic Defence and Space
Company (EADS), have won what has become
a highly controversial U.S. military contract to
provide aerial refueling planes to the U.S. Air
Force. With this deal, which has the potential
to total more than $100 billion over 30 years
for 179 aircraft, EADS has broken into the U.S.
military market for the first time.
A close competition for the $35 billion
contract stretched out for more than a year.
U.S. giant Boeing's KC-767s were passed up
for Northrop Grumman/EADS's refueling tanker,
the KC-45A. This aircraft will replace Boeing's
KC-135, which has been in service since 1957.
Although the U.S. Air Force decision is
considered final, the competition may not end
here. Boeing may challenge the decision, which
would further delay the start of production.
Boeing is not the only one up in arms over
the Northrop Grumman/EADS win: U.S.
lawmakers have openly expressed their
objections to a European company building
aircraft for the U.S. military. Their main
concerns are such a large government contract
being granted to a foreign source in the context
of a slowing U.S. economy and the possibility of
international security breaches.
U.S. Air Force officials have responded
that the EADS/Northrop Grumman plane was
chosen because it is the superior aircraft.
The KC-45A dominated in the nine-point
criteria system used to judge the models
under consideration.

DID YOU KNOW?


DANGEROUS ADVANCE
Miniaturized unmanned aerial vehicle (UAV)
technology used to be so exclusive and
expensive that it was accessible only to major
organizations. But now any hobbyist can buy a
flying model of the Predator UAV, complete with
a working digital camera, for $150. As a result,
combat-ready UAVs are becoming available to
fringe organizations, including terrorist groups.
Lebanese Shiite militia already has
deployed one for reconnaissance. On
November 7, 2004, Hezbollah flew a UAV,
which they called Mirsad-1 (Mirsad is Arabic for
"ambush"), at a low altitude from Lebanon
through Galilee to Nahariya and back to the
Mediterranean. The UAV spent as much as a
half-hour in Israeli airspace. A second
documented flight took place on April 11, 2005.
Hezbollah leaders claim to have the ability to
use the UAVs to deliver explosives of "40 to 50
kilograms each" and to reach "anywhere, deep,
deep" into Israel.

ew environmental standards are restricting the use of


lead and other hazardous substances commonly found in
electrical and electronic components. These restrictions
may complicate and hinder U.S. military aviation
readiness levels.
The European Union's Reduction of Hazardous Substances
(RoHS) directive restricts the use of six substances commonly used in
electrical and electronic equipment: lead, cadmium, mercury,
hexavalent chromium, polybrominated biphenyls, and polybrominated
diphenyl ethers. China took similar steps to reduce hazardous
pollutants when it enacted RoHS initiatives on March 1, 2007.
The new environmental regulations were designed to reduce the
impact of the massive amount of throwaway electronic consumer
items clogging landfills worldwide. When cell phones, computers,
televisions, and other household electronic devices degrade, the
chemicals in solder leach into the soil, contaminating the area.
Bob Ernst, Chairman of the Joint Council on Aging Aircraft (JCAA),
comments. "The fact that RoHS targets lead is admirable, but when
they exempt batteries, which account for almost 80 percent of the lead
in landfills, it makes one wonder if the whole thing is nothing more
than a political statement."
Political statement or not, lead free electronics are here to stay,
and a host of technical issues need to be resolved if the U.S. military
is to avoid a major disruption to its supply chains. So what are the

implications to the U.S. military's aircraft fleet?
How will it change the way the Department of
Defense (DOD) tests and maintains aircraft
systems?
COMMERCIAL VERSUS MILITARY
Military and defense contractors are exempt from
RoHS restrictions, but aerospace shares a
common supply chain with the rest of the world.
The DOD accounts for less than 1 percent of the
world's electrical and electronic component
market. Thus legacy products and materials are
being phased out and are being replaced with
lead free equivalents with little to no regard to
their military and aerospace applications.
"The typical life of commercial electronic
devices is 3 to 7 years compared to decades for
DOD systems," says Lloyd Condra, Chairman of
the Lead Free Electronics in Aerospace Project
(LEAP). "In fact, we're seeing device
manufacturers optimizing the design of
microcircuits to wear out in that timeframe."
Removing lead is a big problem, because the
DOD does not yet fully understand what
happens when the new components are
exposed to the volatile environment of flight.
When the costs to recertify flight critical systems
are factored in, it becomes obvious that the
same solutions available to the consumer market
are not options for the military.
"Lead was introduced back in the 1940s to
AVIATION AFTERMARKET DEFENSE - SPRING 2008

help the solder flow better," says Bob Maskasky,


an avionics engineer from Fleet Readiness
Center South East in Jacksonville, Florida.
"Traditional tin/lead solder is 63 percent tin and
37 percent lead. Engineers found than without
lead, pure tin solder had a tendency to grow thin
strands from the solder joint." These whiskers,
only 1 to 2 microns, can grow over time and
cause an electronic device to short out and fail.
This and other issues affecting reliability, such as
different solder temperatures, have to be
assessed before the new lead free microcircuits
are introduced to the system.

TECHNICAL ISSUES
"The only service to draft a policy on lead free
electronics to date has been the U.S. Air Force,"
says Vance Anderson, of Defense
Microelectronics Activity (DMEA), referring to a
2006 memo. The one-page document issued by
Aeronautical Systems Command only alerted
programs that many systems were converting to
lead free components - about all the information
that was available at the time.
When the RoHS documents were first
drafted, industry responded by developing and
researching a whole series of solders. At last

Lead free electronics are here to stay, and a host of


technical issues need to be resolved if the U.S. military is
to avoid a major disruption to its supply chains
In response to these challenges, both
industry and government have been scrambling
to understand the physics and arrive at a
consensus on policy. Groups such as LEAP, the
Government Engineering and Information
Technology Association (GEIA), and the Joint
Group for Pollution Prevention (JG-PP) are
sharing limited test data and trying to assist both
government and industry program teams with the
transition.

count, there were 279 different alloys, all of


which have slightly different properties. By
sharing test results, industry has identified a
series of alloys called SAC. SAC stands for the
three ingredients in the alloys: Sn for tin, Ag for
silver, and Cu for Copper. The most prevalent of
the SAC alloys is SAC 305, which is comprised
of 96.5 percent tin, 3 percent silver, and .5
percent copper, says Maskasky.
The problem is that there are no known
qualified (drop in) replacements for tin/lead
37

solders. The most obvious difference is that lead


free solders have a higher melting point. A 63
percent tin/37 percent lead solder has a melting
point of 183 degrees Celsius; the SAC alloys
melt at temperatures 30 to 40 degrees Celsius
higher, around 215 to 227 degrees Celsius.
"This temperature change could show up
when the technician tries to solder a lead free
component on a board with tin/lead parts and the
surrounding parts become a pile of goo," says
Andy Ganster, from Naval Surface Warfare
Center in Crane, Indiana.
The reliability of the new alloys also is
unknown. In 2003, JG-PP tested the three most
common alloys - stabilized tin-copper+Ni, tinsilver-copper, and tin-silver-copper-bismuth. One
of the findings was that the new lead free solders
are more susceptible to vibration, reducing
reliability. Overall, however, the results did not
provide definitive answers, and revised reliability
ratings of components manufactured with these
and other lead free alloys are still to be
determined.
TIN WHISKERS
"Research on tin whiskers growth has been
going on for decades, but we still don't know why
or what makes the tin whiskers grow," says Dr.
Stephan Mescher from BAE. It has been
observed that the growth of these whiskers is
accelerated in a vacuum, which probably lead to
the decision made by the National Aeronautics
and Space Administration (NASA) not to allow
any lead free components in the Space Shuttle.
But help is on the way. Some of NASA's
studies from the 1980s have been re-evaluated.
Because the samples were saved, it has been
possible to see if the whiskers continued to grow
over the last 20 years. As some configurations
showed no additional growth, it might be possible
to make small changes in the solder composition
or in design geometries and mitigate whisker
growth.
For systems already in production, conformal
coating was initially thought to prevent whisker
growth. Initial testing showed, however, that no
existing coating eliminates whisker growth. But
such coatings could stop a whisker from reentering an electronic device and prevent two
conductive surfaces from intersecting and
shorting out components.
LEAP
Studies by the University of Maryland Center for
Advanced Life Cycle Engineering (CALCE) show
that for industry to make the transition to lead
free electronics, the cost may be between $5
and $10 million dollars. For a typical board
manufacturer that could increase its product cost
by about 1 percent.
"If that same contractor has different
processes and requirements from Lockheed
38

Martin, Boeing, Raytheon, and other companies,


that cost could increase to 5 to 6 percent," said
Peter Sandborn, from CALCE. "If we can't agree
on standard processes to qualify lead free
electronics, that number could double or triple."
And the budget impact of such higher costs
could be significant.
Many of the working groups dealing with lead
free electronics have spent a great amount of
time and energy trying to find ways of mitigating
the technical issues. All of the research in the
world will not help, however, unless the findings

for repair of legacy circuit boards, due to the


induced damage from much higher melting
temperatures."
"Our Aviation Depot Level Repairables
(AVDLR) budget for 2006 was over $2.3 billion
with about 35 percent of that going to repair of
avionics systems," says Doug Monin, head of the
Enterprise Cost Analysis Branch at NAVAIR.
"That's over $800 million a year for avionics.
When you throw in the costs for the 'O' and 'I'
level labor and consumables, the costs only
increase."

These whiskers, only 1 to 2 microns, can


grow over time and cause an electronic
device to short out and fail
are translated into documents that acquisition
and support teams can use. "Getting a
consensus set of documents is sometimes a
long and frustrating process," Ernst says. "But
once you have that consensus, it is easier for our
program teams to place those requirements on
contract."
The good news is that LEAP and GEIA have
developed documents to guide programs in the
transition to lead free. The first document,
published in 2005, is the Program Managers
Guide (see the Aerospace Industries
Association's Web site www.aia-aerospace.org).
It provides industry practices on how to screen
parts, perform configuration management, and
conduct testing. To date, three such documents
have been released.
DEPOTS
The next question is how the RoHS restrictions
will impact the armed services' ability to sustain,
repair, and overhaul their weapons systems.
Most consumer avionics components and
systems are considered consumable, with a
design lifespan of just 1 to 2 years. "When is the
last time anyone repaired the cell phone?" asks
Ric Loeslein, NAVAIR (Naval Air Systems
Command) Diminishing Manufacturing Sources
and Material Shortages (DMSMS) team leader,
commenting on the market transition.
But repair is a big issue to the U.S. military.
The average age of aircraft in the U.S. Navy is
over 18 years, and for the U.S. Air Force, it is
almost 24 years, says Ernst. And even though
most airframes may have two or three avionics
subsystems changes during their lifespan, those
subsystems typically are operational for more
than a decade.
"Even with the recent increases in
procurement, we're going to have the existing
systems around for a long time, and the budget
reflects that emphasis. Using lead free
solders/components in some cases is impractical

THE SURVEY
"Back in 2003, we were working with some of the
industry experts understanding issues with our
legacy avionics systems, and the lead free
electronics issues kept coming up," explains
Mike Whelan, former avionics team lead for
NAVAIR's Aging Aircraft Team. "Industry was
just starting to understand the technical issues
and definitely focusing on the acquisition/design
side, but no one had systemically assessed the
impact to the aviation depots."
After a series of briefings to the depot
leadership, it was decided that the JCAA should
conduct a study to see how prepared U.S.
military depots were and to compare their status
to the changes going on in the commercial
sector. After surveying the lead free community,
the JCAA selected ITB, Inc., of Dayton Ohio to
conduct the survey. ITB had a good reputation
and had been involved in the testing of lead free
alloys for a number of years.
"Lots of folks had ideas on what might
potentially impact our ability to repair avionics,
but we didn't see coordination across the depot
community," says the JCAA's Ernst. "We knew
that traditionally, new technology requires a
change in publications and training as well as the
equipment purchases. What we didn't know was
how far along our depots were in this evolution.
"With the transition to lead free electronics
just beginning, we had an opportunity to get
ahead of the power curve," Ernst explains.
"Instead of having twelve different aviation
depots/repair centers all develop new training
and procedures, we had the opportunity to take
the best and develop one product that met the
needs of all. If you consider that some of the
publications are already joint, it's a no-brainer."
THE FINDINGS
ITB, along with representatives from each
service, made twelve trips to monitor depot/repair
center activities over an 8-month period.
AVIATION AFTERMARKET DEFENSE - SPRING 2008

Limitation of Hot Solder Dip as a Tin Whisker Mitigation Strategy

"Each survey was preceded by a


questionnaire, followed by a review of ongoing
study findings before we reviewed their plans
and activities," says Denny Jarvi, Principle
Engineering Director at ITB. "Once at the depot,
ITB 'followed the part' through the entire process,
from incoming inspection to final assembly and
test. The key was to look at the whole process
and see where it was possible for lead free
components and/or systems to enter the depot.
We suspected that any dual use components
(components manufactured for commercial
systems like computers) would be the first entry
points."
The team confirmed that the suspected lead
free incursion was a reality by finding commercial
lead free components in almost every
depot/repair center. Anything that is dual use,
including UAVs and ground equipment, is highly
suspect. European source support equipment
often is the first system level lead free incursion,
since RoHS was initiated there, and the DOD
maintains and repairs its own support equipment,
magnifying the potential sustainment problem.
It was not a surprise that the survey indicated
the depots had some significant issues to
address. "We didn't expect them to be ready,"
Ernst says. "We were conducting the survey just
as the first lead free parts were hitting the system
. . . so that we can plan accordingly."
A PLAN
The results of the survey, presented to the Joint
Aeronautical Logistics Commanders in August
2007 recommended several actions for DOD
AVIATION AFTERMARKET DEFENSE - SPRING 2008

consideration:
Examine all aspects of depot
implementation. With more than 4,000 soldering
stations across the aviation enterprise, it does
not make sense to establish a dual repair
capability for every system. The depots need to
look at what lines need to be supported and see
if it is possible to consolidate repair centers.
Work with the DLA (Defense Logistics
Agency) and the supply offices to establish
interim procedures for handling lead free parts.
The survey pointed out that over 95 percent of
current piece parts come from DLA. Some type

This and other material will be further developed.


Capture data on lead free failures. Lots of
testing has been done at the component level,
but almost no information has been collected at
the weapon systems level. The aviation
community needs to perform full systems tests
and establish a data collection system to record
and examine failures in lead free systems.
"A daunting challenge? Perhaps." Ernst
concludes, "We must remember that we still
have some time and view this as an opportunity
to attack an issue before it cripples our ability to
support the warfighter. A decade ago, if you had

would help minimize the impact of mixed parts.
Identify technologies that can be used to
identify lead free parts. The DOD needs a quick
and easy tool to check parts from unknown
sources of supply and verify that the parts either
are eutectic lead or lead free. Many systems
exist today, the most promising of which uses xray fluoroscopy (XRF) technology.

challenges, we must break down stovepipes and

ne joke making the rounds in the


U.S. Air Force is that the "BUFF" in
the B-52's latest iteration, the B-52H
BUFF, stands for "Big Ugly Fat

the "Stratofortress," its 185-foot wingspan is
almost three times longer than the fuselage of
the B-17 Flying Fortress, the mainstay World
War II bomber.
With its long, retro fuselage, drooping wings,
and eight turbojets in underslung pods, the

B-52 on steroids, weighing in with a full fuel load
at nearly 500,000 pounds, as compared to the

336,500-pound loaded weight of the stealth


bomber.
U.S. Air Force brass recently announced
plans to keep the B-52H flying for almost
another four decades. In response, some
officers cracked that by the time this venerable
bomber reaches 80-plus-years of service, it will
be like bombing terrorists with aircraft built by
the Wright brothers.

AFTERMARKET KING
Yet the B-52H, which debuted back in 1961, is
hardly obsolete. It not only "just keeps going
and going" like the Energizer-powered bunny, it
also just keeps getting better, thanks to
numerous upgrades that have enhanced and
expanded its warfighting capabilities. These
upgrades, in turn, make it a king of the

in Louisiana to Iraq and back], persistence, and
ease of adaptability, it makes sense to continue
to upgrade the B-52."
In fact, engineers and technicians at Boeing
and their counterparts at the U.S. Air Force Air
Combat Command are working on further
aftermarket. Over the years, the numerous
upgrades have generated hundreds of millions
of dollars for Boeing, the original and only
builder of the B-52.
"The B-52 platform lends itself to upgrades,"
says U.S. Air Force spokeswoman Major
Cristin L. Marposon. "The air frame still has a
long structural life," she says, adding, "and
because of its range [during the Gulf War, B52s flew the longest strike mission in the

about $500 million over its anticipated 11-year
production lifespan, "is significant because it's

upgrades. They expect these upgrades will
keep the B-52 combat-ready for years to come.
CONNECTING WITH CONECT
"The biggest upgrade we're currently under
contract for with the Air Force is the Combat

Oathout explains. He adds, "It allows the B-52


to go to the fight and talk in real time during
missions with the Air Force's digital
communications network."
The first CONECT modification is expected
to take 11 months. The production phase
AVIATION AFTERMARKET DEFENSE - SPRING 2008

aircraft will take place at Edwards Air Force


Base in Southern California.
MULTI-MISSION WONDER
Originally designed during the Cold War as the
foremost component of the Strategic Air
Command's nuclear deterrence weapons
systems against the Soviet Union, today's
Stratofortress has morphed into a multi-mission
wonder.
Major Marposon stresses the B-52's
versatility when she notes, "In its nuclear role,
the Stratofortress provides the only air-launch
cruise missile carriage capability in the Air
Force. In its conventional role, the B-52 carries
the Air Force's widest array of weapons."
These weapons, she says, include gravity
bombs, cluster bombs, GPS-precision-guided

fleet of H-model Stratofortresses assigned to
the Air Combat Command and the Air Force
Reserves will have received the initial
CONECT modification.
MIDLIFE MODIFICATIONS
A major upgrade nearing completion on the B52H fleet is the Avionics Midlife Improvement
(AMI), a $108 million Boeing contract with the
U.S. Air Force. In implementing the AMI
program, the Boeing Military Aerospace
Support group is replacing the avionics
processors and data storage and navigation
systems with state-of-the-art electronics.
AMI also includes "re-hosting" major
systems. In effect, this has meant rewriting
existing and obsolete JOVIAL language for
navigation, operating systems, controls, and
displays that originally ran on a Commodore
AVIATION AFTERMARKET DEFENSE - SPRING 2008

64-era computer. The new programming


computer language, called ADA, runs on a
latest-generation PowerPC system. According
to Oathout, over 250,000 lines of operational
code were required for this complex upgrade.
Boeing Support Systems, which is a unit of
its military division Integrated Defense
Systems, will design, integrate, and flight test
the AMI upgrade. Modification of two B-52H

missiles, and joint direct attack munitions.


"The integration of J-series weapons [GPSguided munitions] has dramatically increased
the B-52's capabilities," says Marposon. In
Operation Desert Storm, multiple B-52s
employing general purpose gravity bombs were
needed to destroy a single target. "Today," she
says, "a single B-52 can strike multiple targets.
This enhanced capability makes the B-52H
extremely effective as a close air support
platform, a role that is relatively new to
bombers."
Advanced terrain avoidance radar and
infrared sensors enable the B-52H to penetrate
enemy airspace at altitudes as low as 200 feet
and to fly safely through mountainous terrain,
day or night, in all weather conditions.
Additional upgrades to communications and
datalink capabilities, along with the integration
43

of an Electro Optical/Infrared Advanced


Targeting Pod, "will ensure the B-52's
continued dominance in future high-tech
military environments, where detection and
targeting will occur within seconds," says
Marposon.
The B-52H even plays an unusual role for
the U.S. Navy. As it can loiter on-station, in just
2 hours, two B-52s can monitor 140,000
square miles of ocean surface. This enables
the Stratofortresses to assist the U.S. Navy in
anti-ship and mine-laying operations.
ROUGH START
For all its ongoing success, the B-52 had a
decidedly rough start. The prototype B-52,
designated the 464-17 by the U.S. Air Force,
never got off the drawing board. This design,
selected by the U.S. Army Air Forces in 1946,
was a straight-wing, six-engine, turboproppowered heavy bomber. On Oct. 21, 1948,
Boeing Chief Engineer Ed Wells and his design
team were in Dayton, Ohio, when the Chief of
Bomber Development of the newly formed U.S.
Air Force (established in 1947) told them to
scrap the propellers and come up with a sweptwing, all-jet bomber.
Over the following weekend, in a Dayton
hotel room, the Boeing team designed a new
eight-engine jet bomber, made a scale model
of balsa wood, and prepared a thirty-threepage report. This effort impressed the Air
Force's Air Material Command, and the design
for the XB-52, the designation for the first of
the B52s, was approved.
In 1951, as the war worsened in Korea, the
U.S. Air Force designated the heavy bomber,
now officially the B-52, the country's next
intercontinental bomber and approved an initial
production order for thirteen aircraft. By 1962,
when the last B-52H models rolled off the
assembly lines at Boeing's Seattle and Wichita
plants, 744 of the A to H model B-52s had
been produced for the Air Force.
FUTURE UPGRADES
Looking ahead, Boeing sees two significant
44

upgrades in the future. The first is new


engines. "Because the B-52 has such a critical
mission and will be flying for another 30-plus
years, that may require new engines," says
Oathout. Re-engining the B-52H or its
successors with environmentally friendly, fuelefficient engines could save the U.S. Air Force
in both maintenance and fuel costs over the
long term, he says.
The second significant future upgrade is
designed to enhance the B-52's capabilities in
combat. "As we believe the B-52H is the right
platform to meet the Air Force's electronic
warfare mission," says Oathout, "we've teamed
with Northrop Grumman on developing the
Core Component Jammer or CCJ." According
to Oathout, the CCJ will provide long-range
jamming of enemy radar so that U.S. fighters
can get close enough to engage targets.
Boeing and the Air Force believe this enhanced
capability will make in-theater air support safer
and more effective.
"With Boeing's platform knowledge and
aircraft integration expertise and Northrop's
electronic attack system integration

background, we stand ready to provide the


best value to the Air Force," says Oathout. He
adds, "Our teaming approach allows us to
develop a cost-effective solution that meets our
customer's critical mission requirements. We
will work closely with the Air Force to finalize
the requirements to ensure the program is
affordable."
In 1952, the first B-52 took flight, Americans
liked Ike so much that they overwhelmingly
elected the World War II hero president, the
bitter war in Korea continued, and the Soviet
Union loomed as a thermonuclear-armed
menace. Today, while no one can say who the
tenant of the White House will be some three
decades hence or what the geopolitical
landscape will look like, one thing appears
certain: Some version of the B-52 will still
be flying.
While the B-52 still may be the Big Ugly Fat
Fellow in some circles, beauty, as they say, is
in the eyes of the beholder. For those who fly,

DID YOU KNOW?


CIVIL WAR UAV
The earliest recorded proposal for a strictly
military unmanned aerial vehicle (UAV) was
actually an unmanned combat aerial vehicle
(UCAV), an offensive weapon intended to inflict
direct damage on combat opponents. Near the
beginning of the American Civil War, both sides
had balloon corps using manned crews for
reconnaissance. Two years into the war, New
York City inventor Charles Perley registered a
patent for an unmanned balloon that carried a
bomb in its basket.
After the unmanned balloon had spent a
preset time in the air, a timer removed a latch
pin, the bomb's fuse was ignited, and the bomb
was dropped onto whoever was below. The
idea was to test the speed and direction of the
wind and choose a launch site and timer setting
that would cause the bomb to be released over
the enemy - a chancy proposition at best.
Sources disagree on whether the unmanned
bombers were ever tried in combat, but there
are no reports of it being used successfully.

the Civil War,"

DID YOU KNOW?


FIRST ARMED UAV KILL
On September 1, 2007, U.S. Army scouts in
Iraq successfully called in a nearby Hunter
unmanned aerial vehicle (UAV) to release a
laser-guided missile to kill two men planting a
roadside bomb. Colonel Don Hazelwood, a
project manager for U.S. Army Unmanned
Aircraft Systems at Redstone Arsenal,
Alabama, reported, "We had the first confirmed
use of an Army weaponized UAV."
Although this was the first armed forces
kill, there were precedents. In 2002, the CIA
used Predators for reconnaissance in
Afghanistan. But the Predator was multirole: It
also could carry two Hellfire missiles. On
February 4, 2002, a CIA-operated Predator
fired its missiles at a group of men believed to
be among the al-Qaeda hierarchy; at least one
of the group was killed. A similar mission
occurred in November 2002 in Yemen.

AVIATION AFTERMARKET DEFENSE - SPRING 2008

It's a small world, yet international horizons can seem far away. AAD's "Eagle Eye On" military aviation profiles bring those distant horizons
closer. This issue, we feature a snapshot of the military aviation industry in Germany, including information on primary aircraft operated,
manufacturers, suppliers, and overhaul and repair facilities.
Defense consolidation dominates the European military aviation industry. Throughout Germany's history, defense companies have
gone through a series of acquisitions, mergers, and partnerships. One example is the major aerospace consortium, EADS (European
Aeronautic Defence and Space Company). Daimler Chrysler Aerospace (DASA) was a major aviation corporation in Germany until it
merged with Aerospatiale-Matra and the Spanish aircraft manufacturer CASA to form the multinational EADS in 2000.
As far as aircraft, Germany's Air Force, the Luftwaffe, inherited the entire former East German Air Force following the unification of
Germany in 1990. At that time, the Luftwaffe acquired Soviet aircraft such as the Sukhoi Su-17 and various MiG models.
Today, Germany's military aircraft includes the Panavia Tornado ECR and IDS; the C-160 transport, which is expected to be replaced by
the Airbus A400M in 2008; and the new NH-90 developed by NHIndustries (NHI), a company established by Agusta, Eurocopter, and
Stork Fokker Aerospace.

FUEL PUMPS & COMPONENTS

BIRTH OF THE B-52


The B-52, nicknamed BUFF (Big Ugly Fat
Fellow), celebrates the sixtieth anniversary of
its design this year. The most critical phase
of this airplane's immense design success
occurred during a single weekend.
Since 1946, the U.S. Air Force had been
seeking a long-lasting successor to the B-29,
the Convair B-36, and the Boeing B-47. It
selected Boeing's preliminary proposal - a
heavy bomber with straight wings and six
propeller engines - for further development.
By 1948, jet engines had replaced the
propeller engines, and the wings had been
swept back 20 degrees.
One Friday in October of that year,
Boeing engineers showed the plans to the
chief of bomber development at Wright Field.
He told them bluntly, "Give it more speed."
Working furiously through the weekend, the
engineers revised the design to include eight
jet engines and wings that were swept back
to 35 degrees. By Monday, they had created
a balsa model and a thirty-three-page report
describing Model 464-28, the grandfather of
today's B-52s.
