Officials responsible for range and airspace management atHeadquarters Air Combat Command (ACC) asked RAND’s ProjectAIR FORCE to undertake a study that would improve the collection,evaluation, analysis, and presentation of the information needed tolink training requirements to their associated airspace and rangeinfrastructure requirements and to evaluate the existinginfrastructure. This study was conducted initially in Project AIRFORCE’s Resource Management Program. The work shifted to theManpower, Personnel, and Training Program when it was formed in1999.This report provides findings regarding the adequacy of ACC’s rangeand airspace infrastructure as revealed through use of an analyticstructure and database assembled by RAND. A companion volume(A Decision Support System for Evaluating Ranges and Airspace,MR-1286/1-AF) provides information on construction, use, andmaintenance of the database.PROJECT AIR FORCEProject AIR FORCE, a division of RAND, is the Air Force federallyfunded research and development center (FFRDC) for studies andanalyses. It provides the Air Force with independent analyses ofpolicy alternatives affecting the development, employment, combatreadiness, and support of current and future aerospace forces.Research is performed in four programs: Aerospace Force Develop-ment;Manpower, Personnel, and Training; Resource Management;and Strategy and Doctrine.
