| Question | Answer |
|---|---|
| What is the basis of the maintenance concept? | The selection of a support system that promotes the highest possible weapons system and equipment availability and assures its sustainability at low life-cycle expense |
| What has driven maintenance concepts of the past? | Driven by low mean-time between removal rates, high CND (cannot duplicate) rates, and expensive line replaceable units (LRU) |
| What must future maintenance concepts take advantage of? | Latest technology, advanced mechanical design techniques and effective human factors engineering |
| What does minimizing requirements for off-equipment maintenance allow for? | Maintenance performance closer to the weapons system or equipment and reduce the size of deployment packages. |
| What is the objective of the USAF equipment maintenance program? | Is to ensure Air Force equipment is serviceable, safely operable, and available for sustained use in peace, war, and contingencies |
| What is the output product of maintenance? | Mission-ready weapons systems and serviceable equipment |

| What are the three levels of maintenance? | Organizational, Intermediate, and Depot |
| What is the purpose of maintenance engineering? | To improve the reliability and maintenance of the equipment already being maintained and to ensure optimum reliability and maintainability is designed into new equipment |
| What is the goal of maintenance management? | The goal of maintenance management is to reduce or eliminate unit dependence on off-equipment repair |
| What does reliability-centered maintenance ensure? | Ensures success of the basic safety and reliability levels for weapons systems and equipment at a minimum cost |
| How were aircraft delivered to the Air Force prior to the RCM program? | Recommended maintenance program |
| After a maintenance program is established, based on RCM, what must be done? | It must be continuously evaluate and update it to maintain maximum efficiency and provide minimum impact on operational readiness |
