The Air Force now has an unusual one-stop, 24-hour technical support center to help solve any F/A-22 Raptor maintenance issues. Lockheed Martin said the TSC, located at Marietta, Ga., is “a first in contractor sustainment support.” The center comprises contractor and USAF personnel, who have 24-hour access to technical data, engineers, and program officials—all bent on shortening the turnaround time for support services.
The Air Force Life Cycle Management Center wants a contractor to serve as integrator for all the software sustainment of current and future upgrades to the growing KC-46 Pegasus tanker fleet.
