Abstract
- The article discusses the challenges faced by the United States defense industrial base during the COVID-19 pandemic, particularly in relation to the supply chain for Army aviation. The Army relies on a robust defense industrial base to develop, build, and maintain its aviation capabilities. The article highlights the need to closely monitor the rotary wing industrial base and invest in preserving production processes and equipment to reduce the risk of parts becoming unavailable. The Army's Program Executive Office (PEO) Aviation has created a defense industrial base team to identify and mitigate supply chain risks using AI technology and analysis. The team has completed over 120 projects to support supply chain risk management. The article also mentions the development of a user-friendly service desk portal to centralize and manage supply chain issues within PEO Aviation. The goal is to ensure a strong, flexible, and resilient defense industrial base for Army aviation. [Extracted from the article]
