March FY13 PB (Version 82) Per CoG/SecAF/TAG direction, this is the requested alternative to the FY13 PB We have taken a pragmatic approach that increases combat capability while rebalancing the manpower and force structure cuts from the FY13 PB ANG and AF both share in this new plan, with ANG reducing full time manpower and re-missioning within the ANG, and AD shifting force structure to ANG This Alternative accomplishes the following: Exceeds OSD directed FY13 and FYDP savings and preserves operational force structure Decreases operational risk by increasing surge capacity Preserves the experience of total force Airmen and their technical expertise at reduced cost Leverages the reserves component to increase fighter pilot absorption
FACER March FY13 PB Actions In FY 12 the AC/RC mix CAF and MAF was 58%/42% and 51%/49%, respectively However, the 13 PB changed the AC/RC mix (CAF & MAF) to 62%/38% and 54%/46%, respectively This option brings the AC/RC mix (CAF & MAF) back to 57%/43% and 53%/47%, respectively The AD end strength in FY 12 was 332,800, the 13PB reduced it to 328,900 resulting in a reduction of 3900 personnel or 1.2%; this option reduces the AD by 6400 personnel or 1.9% The ANG end strength in FY 12 was 106,700; the 13 PB reduced it to 101,200 resulting in a reduction of 5,500 personnel or 5.1%; this option reduces the ANG by 2,000 personnel or 1.8% This option adjusts the force structure reductions of the AD and ANG from 1.2% and 5.1% to 1.9% and 1.8%, respectively The total number of ANG Wings will not change from the planned 13PB reduction
March FY13 PB FY 12 PB FY 13 PB 13 PB Relook AC/RC Mix (CAF, MAF) 58/42, 51/49 62/38, 54/46 57/43, 53/47 328,900 (-3,900/1.2%) 326,400 (-6,400/1.9%) AD Endstrength 332,800 101,200 (-5,500/5.1%) 104,700 (-2,000/1.8%) ANG Endstrength 106,700 Number of ANG Wings 89 87 87 AD ANG ACTION 2,500 ($1.6B FYDP) Manpower offset from AD by moving missions to ANG (estimated) 3,500 ($900M FYDP) ANG manpower required to perform increased mission sets 1,400 ($900M FYDP) AD manpower cashed in to fund ANG manpower requirement 1,100 ($700M FYDP) AD manpower ($700M FYDP) available for AD missions/readiness -2,500 +3,500 Total Change in Endstrength from FY 13 PB - - - All manpower number are approximate AD manpower numbers are planning factor only Subject to HAF A1M validation
FACER March FY13 PB Actions TOP BANNER: The $700M FYDP savings are milpers savings LEFT BOX: The net effect on the ANG is an increase of 4 F-16 units, 1 C-130 unit, and a plus up of existing KC-135 units. The ANG will still fly and fund the manpower for the MC-12 mission internally but change the wings receiving the mission The ANG will still fly and fund 2 of the 4 RPA missions given to the ANG in the FY13 PB. Two of the units programmed to receive RPA will stay in fighter aircraft. RIGHT BOX: The overall shift in AC/RC mix from the current posture (FY12 PB) is 1% in the CAF and 2 % in the MAF This option supports rotational demand; as an example, 15 ANG F-16 combat squadrons can cover 3 deployed locations with 12 aircraft continuously at 1:4 D2D (2.5 locations at 1:5 D2D) 16 ANG C-130 squadrons can cover 3.2 deployed locations with 8 aircraft continuously at 1:4 D2D (2.7 locations at 1:5 D2D) BOTTOM LINE: $700M FYDP savings include manpower only. This plan did not take any savings in flying hours, base operational support or infrastructure
