Comparative Analysis of Internal and External Solutions to Provide Air Combat Maneuvering Instrumentation Functionality

Major Panarisi summarizes the development of current and proposed family of Air combat Maneuvering Instrumentation (ACMI) systems-considered the gold standard of training mission enhancements-and presents the capabilities each system provides. He uses the Kadena Interim Training system as a suitable case study to compare requirements of current ACMI features to the capabilities available using internal components. He contends that internal systems can be installed long before the next generation system will be operational. Thus, Major Panarisi proposes alternatives that offer the potential to save millions of dollars in operating costs and which allow ACMI training on every mission independent of ground-based equipment and external stores.This work has been selected by scholars as being culturally important, and is part of the knowledge base of civilization as we know it.
