Training aircrews for combat requires access to ranges suitable for actual or simulated weapon delivery and to dedicated airspace suitable for air- to-air and air-to-ground tactics. To enhance this access, Air Combat Command (ACC) needs a comprehensive, objective statement of its range and airspace requirements, linked to national interests, and a means to compare existing infrastructure with these requirements. Project AIR FORCE (PAF) and ACC, working in concert, met this need by developing an analytic structure containing the following elements: * Operational requirements that aircrews and other combatants must be trained to support. * Training tasks required to prepare aircrews for their assigned operational tasks. * Range and airspace characteristics needed for effective support of each training task. * Minimum durations of training events on ranges or airspace with specified characteristics. * Dimensions, location, equipment, operating hours, and other characteristics of current ranges and airspace. * Relational links among operational requirements, training requirements, infrastructure requirements, and available assets.
