A Framework for Modernization Within the United States Air Force

The report lays out a framework for modernizing that the Air Force can use to develop new operational concepts in the context of joint-service requirements, to organize analyses for assessing capabilities, and to effectively advocate Air Force programs to "deciders' in the Office of the Secretary of Defense and Congress. The work builds on earlier work on a strategies-to-tasks framework, concept development, and up-front planning. The broad conceptual framework promotes innovation and modernization of Air Force capabilities and is consistent with the chief-of-staff's emphasis that capabilities be developed and fielded in a timely manner. The framework offers a clearly defined set of relevant terms applicable at several levels of operation; it identifies (generically) the principal actors within the Air Force who are guiding and promoting innovation; it lays out a process governing the interactions among these principal actors; and it lists operational capabilities, derived from the defense strategy and from joint-service employment concepts, that could be used to organize modernization efforts.

  • "Like its sister services, the Air Force is charged, by Title 10 of the U.S. Code, with providing combatant commanders with capabilities that fulfill, to the maximum extent practicable, their operational requirements. In a highly dynamic security environment, when threats faced by the United States are changing rapidly and the types and nature of operations conducted by its forces are changing as well, it is especially important that the services effectively promote innovation and modernization of their operational capabilities. Instituting a straightforward, coherent, and well-defined process for modernizing can help the leaders of the Air Force ensure that relevant capabilities are developed and fielded in a timely manner. Functionally speaking, seven principal actors are involved in the modernization process within a service."@en
