(U) A. Mission Description and Budget Item Justification
The Joint Cargo Aircraft, now designated the C-27J, program and the direct support airlift mission it supports has been transferred to the Air Force. The 13 aircraft
procured by the Army from FY07-09 are being transferred to the Air Force.
The C-27J program began as an Army-led, joint program to acquire a commercial derivative aircraft to support the Time Sensitive/Mission Critical resupply of Army
ground forces. A joint Army/Air Force Source Selection Team chose the C-27J in a full and open competition and awarded a firm-fixed price contract to L3
Communications on 13 June 2007.
FY10 Budget Justification: Completes Product Qualification Testing (PQT), Live Fire Test & Evaluation (LFT&E), Multi-Service Operational Test & Evaluation
(MOT&E), training and sustainment business case analyses (BCA), Depot Source of Repair, Core Logistics Analysis, and 50/50 Analysis. Funding also supports any
associated program management costs.
C-27J is in Budget Activity 05, System Development & Demonstration, because it is a new system that has not been fielded yet.

Evaluation (MOT&E). The program provides funds to the FAA and other government offices/agencies supporting aircraft airworthiness certification, procures
hardware to support the LFT&E and provides funds to the Army Test & Evaluation Center, the Air Force Operational Test & Evaluation Center, and other test
organizations to conduct PQT, LFT&E and OT&E. The program will exercise existing prime contract options to provide needed data and other support required to
assess any retrofits needed based on test results.
- Sustainment and Training Studies: The program has established an independent contract to conduct the Sustainment and Training business case analyses, Depot
Source of Repair, and Core Logistics Analysis.
- Training Systems Requirements Analysis (TSRA): The program has exercised existing options within the prime contract to conduct TSRAs to help determine future
training system requirements.
