AME/ame_pmr_amps.ppt #9 AMPS Program Strategy To Date  Evolutionary Acquisition  First baseline was CECOM C2D-developed software  Initial fielding in 1994 to support OH-58D KW  PM CHS Non-Developmental Item (NDI) hardware  Legacy: AMPS 4.3, 5.1.1,  Fielded PFPS-A v (Falconview) baseline (Sep 03)  To mitigate warfighting deficiencies identified by then-BG Cody in TF Hawk, primarily Joint operations interoperability  First platform supported was Lot 7 AH-64D LBA  Army functionality extensions to Air Force software (AMCOM SED)  Testing PFPS-A v3.3.0 Release 3 Now!

AME/ame_pmr_amps.ppt #10 AMPS Program Strategy--Future  Near Term: PFPS-Army 3.3.x (Falconview)  Will field PFPS-A v3.3.0 release 3 in 1QFY05  Will support all Army rotary-wing Mission Design Series by Spring 2005  Supports Army SW Block I and II  Long Term: JMPS  Multi-service collaborative development under IPT structure (vice JPO)  All services migration to common core planner  First Army supported version JMPS (Sep 2005)  JMPS 1.4 will support Army SW Block III (2008)  Future Combat System support

AME/ame_pmr_amps.ppt #13 Message  Army Aviation fleet modernization programs  Are being designed to accept NGA products to support tactical operations  On board optimized run-time environments are architecturally rigid  DoD aircraft flight management systems are minimally three years from contract award to fielding, preceded nominally by at least one year of government requirements specification  Post-initial fielding upgrades are months in development  It is imperative that changes being evaluated to “foundation” geospatial data be thoroughly coordinated with supported Aviation platforms to:  Include fleet-wide impacts as part of decision criteria  Program required technology insertions and funding for changes deemed necessary
