Congressional Budget Office

No 53543, Reports from Congressional Budget Office

Abstract: Depot-level maintenance of military aircraft consists of in-depth maintenance that is beyond the capability of maintenance staff at an aircraft’s operating location. Depot-level maintenance is essential to ensuring an aircraft’s capability to perform missions and can influence whether an aircraft’s life can be extended cost-effectively. This report focuses on depot-level maintenance practices for the Air Force’s and Navy’s combat aircraft as sources of insights for the new F-35 fighter aircraft.
