  • RAND Project AIR FORCE Annual Report 2007
    Annual Report 2007 PROJECT AIR FORCE Annual Report 2007 PROJECT AIR FORCE About RAND Project AIR FORCE he mission of RAND Project AIR FORCE (PAF), a division of the RAND Corporation and the Air Force’s federally funded Tresearch and development center for studies and analysis, is to under- take an integrated program of objective, independent analysis on issues of enduring concern to Air Force leaders. PAF addresses far-reaching and interrelated questions: What will be the role of air and space power in the future security environment? How should the force be modernized to meet changing operational demands? What should be the size and char- acteristics of the workforce? How can that workforce be most effectively recruited, trained, and retained? How should sustainment, acquisition, and infrastructure be streamlined to control costs? PAF carries out its research agenda in four programs that represent core competencies: Strategy and Doctrine seeks to increase knowledge and understanding of geopolitical and other problems in the national security environment that affect Air Force operations. PAF maintains expertise in defense strategy; regional analysis; the objectives and tasks of evolving joint oper- ations; and the potential contributions of air and space power to joint operations, defense planning, and requirements for force development. Aerospace Force Development identifies and assesses ways in which technological advances and new operational concepts can improve the Air Force’s ability to satisfy a range of future operational demands. This research involves assessments of technology feasibility, performance, cost, and risk. PAF assesses major force components needed in the future and the systems and infrastructure supporting their operations.

  • Offutt Air Force Base Informational Brochure
    Offutt Air Force Base Informational Brochure In 2015, a JLUS for the Offutt Air Force Base (AFB) was developed through a collaborative planning effort between the cities of Bellevue, Council Bluffs, Glenwood, La Vista, Omaha, Papillion and Plattsmouth, as well Cass, Douglas, Mills, Pottawattamie, and Sarpy Counties. The JLUS program was developed by the Department of Defense (DOD) as a cooperative land use planning effort between affected local government(s) and military installations. The JLUS Program is designed to provide a cooperative environment within which present and future land use development and land use decisions can be made. The 2015 JLUS identified area growth and economic trends, the facilities and mission of the AFB, land use policies and programs, compatibility issues with AFB operations, and a recommended course of action. Offutt AFB JLUS Overview All AFB installations attract developments. Housing is constructed for AFB employees who want to live near, and businesses are established to serve the AFB and its employees. As development increase around the AFB, more people are exposed to noise and accident potential associated with aircraft operations. The Air Installation Compatibility Use Zone (AICUZ) program was created by the DOD in 1973 to address noise and safety hazards associated with aviation operations. The AICUZ program was established to minimize impacts from aviation operations (noise and accidents) through specific attention to development and land uses. The AICUZ framework evaluates noise from military aircraft, and applies the concept of clear zones and accident potential zones with corresponding development and building intensities designed to encourage compatibility between military operations and communities.

  • Air Force Sexual Assault Court-Martial Summaries 2010 March 2015
    Air Force Sexual Assault Court-Martial Summaries 2010 March 2015 – The Air Force is committed to preventing, deterring, and prosecuting sexual assault in its ranks. This report contains a synopsis of sexual assault cases taken to trial by court-martial. The information contained herein is a matter of public record. This is the final report of this nature the Air Force will produce. All results of general and special courts-martial for trials occurring after 1 April 2015 will be available on the Air Force’s Court-Martial Docket Website (www.afjag.af.mil/docket/index.asp). SIGNIFICANT AIR FORCE SEXUAL ASSAULT CASE SUMMARIES 2010 – March 2015 Note: This report lists cases involving a conviction for a sexual assault offense committed against an adult and also includes cases where a sexual assault offense against an adult was charged and the member was either acquitted of a sexual assault offense or the sexual assault offense was dismissed, but the member was convicted of another offense involving a victim. The Air Force publishes these cases for deterrence purposes. Sex offender registration requirements are governed by Department of Defense policy in compliance with federal and state sex offender registration requirements. Not all convictions included in this report require sex offender registration. Beginning with July 2014 cases, this report also indicates when a victim was represented by a Special Victims’ Counsel. Under the Uniform Code of Military Justice, sexual assaults against those 16 years of age and older are charged as crimes against adults. The appropriate disposition of sexual assault allegations and investigations may not always include referral to trial by court-martial.

  • Combat Skills Prepare Airmen for Deployment Staff Sgt
    Farewell to the Chief! Come out to the Fitness Center Annex Friday starting at 9 a.m. to wish 50th Space Wing Command Chief Master Sgt. Russell Kuck a fond farewell! VOL. 8, NO. 14 APRIL 6, 2006 Colorado Springs, Colo. www.schriever.af.mil Combat skills prepare Airmen for deployment Staff Sgt. Don Branum 50th Space Wing Public Affairs What difference does Expeditionary Combat Skills train- ing make for Airmen who are preparing to deploy? For one satellite systems operator with the 4th Space Operations Squadron here, the answer is: a big one. “I feel better prepared now than before,” Senior Airman Dale Harris said. “If your career field doesn’t deploy, you should get this kind of refresher training every couple of years.” Airman Harris was one of 100 Airmen who participated in a Wing Expeditionary Readiness Inspection here March 14 to 16. He will deploy with Aerospace Expeditionary Forces 3 and 4. The WERI was the first deployment training environment Airman Harris had experienced since Basic Military Training’s Warrior Week at Lackland Air Force Base, Texas. The ECS training included convoy training, improvised explosive device awareness, individual tactical maneuvers, M-16 familiarization, rifle fighting and integrated base defense. “They made it realistic—like it would be out in the field, not like we were sitting in a tent all day,” he said. Airman Harris’ appraisal is not the only positive review the combat training has received. Several Airmen photo by Kim Kruis-Johnson approached Lt. Col. Paul Scholl, 50th Security Forces Airmen practice individual tactical maneuvers during a Wing Expeditionary Readiness Inspection here March 14 to 16.
