结论 |
On Average, Around 50 Percent of the C-17 Fleet, or 104 Aircraft, Are Fully Mission Capable at Any Time- This number dropped to as low as 68 aircraft and rose as high as 126 aircraft in the year of data examined.
- On average, another 25 percent of the fleet is partially mission capable, but it is unclear whether these aircraft could serve the Global Response Force.
All Fully Mission Capable Aircraft Could Be Ready to Redeploy Within 87 Hours- Smaller groups of aircraft could be available sooner.
- On average, 1–2 aircraft could be made available within 12 hours.
- About 35 aircraft could be made available within 24 hours.

摘要 |
- The 82nd Airborne Division/Global Response Force (GRF) should take into consideration realistic expectations of aircraft availability when planning their operations. This includes maintenance availability, time to reach Ft. Bragg/Pope Field and rest the crew, and likelihood of diverting from in-progress missions.
- If more C-17s are kept near or at Ft. Bragg/Pope Field for their usual activities, it can increase the number of aircraft available to the 82nd Airborne Division/GRF on short notice.
- It is important to understand in which cases waivers for shortened pilot rest times will be granted, as this can make aircraft available sooner.
- If some partially mission capable aircraft could be used safely, doing so could significantly increase the number of aircraft available and reduce the time to have a substantial number prepared for 82nd Airborne Division/GRF operations.
- Real-world throughput of aircraft at Ft. Bragg/Pope Field could be an issue and should be investigated, along with the possibility of queuing aircraft at nearby locations to combat this problem.
- Effort should be taken to understand whether comparable aircraft, such as the C-5, could be used in lieu of or in combination with the C-17 fleet and whether this would increase immediate aircraft availability.
