“The cloud environment will increase the operational
availability of MAFPS’ best-in-class services for our customers,”
said Meg Redlin, director of Mission Systems at BAE Systems. “The
system’s automation streamlines flight planning for the future of
airspace operations.”
MAFPS operations in Cloud One align with the U.S. Air Force’s
transformation objectives, breaking from legacy on-premise
environments to a cutting-edge architecture. The new approach to
agile deployment at the enterprise level provides increased
storage, computing, and processing flexibility, and enables faster
version upgrades for the software.
Factoring in environment and platform constraints, BAE Systems’
MAFPS technology dynamically manages fuel-efficient routes and
plans flights for Air Mobility Command’s cargo aircraft, tankers,
and operational support aircraft. The software integrates data
sources and manages constraints such as weather. MAFPS’ optimized
plans also provide ideal routing and effective planning support so
that warfighters can engage anywhere, under any condition. The
system is currently fielded at all levels of operation.
BAE Systems’ mission management capabilities afford service men
and women automated software solutions to improve mission
effectiveness and enhance decision-making in the sky. With more
than 30 years of experience delivering flight planning systems, its
battle management, auto-routing, multi-domain targeting, ground
support, and avionics and armament test equipment provide
end-to-end capabilities for the U.S. Department of Defense. The
development and production of this technology takes place in San
Diego, Calif. and Fairview Heights, Ill.
