About the Role

To provide a basis for analysis and resulting options, ISG-J is conducting a thorough review of RJAF F-16, AH-1, and UH-60 missions (both Jordanian and coalition) and associated training and sustainment requirements. Three requirement categories—operations, training, and sustainment—form the basis of analysis. For each platform, the AoA assesses necessary modifications to current operational and training tasks using current aircraft types and numbers and a combination of current and alternative aircraft. Anticipated travel July 14-16 with CONUS prep and post hours from June 1 through September 30, 2026 with total labor hours up to 240 hours.
