The U.S. Navy and U.S. Airforce are partnering with industry and academia on a multiphase CTMA initiative to identify a cost-effective methodology for long term sustainment of specialty assets, with a focus on those that are used infrequently but must be kept in full operational condition. The overall goal is to develop, maintain, and document a long-term strategy to extend the mission performance and life of these legacy specialty assets.  This initiative is using a phased approach, beginning with the development of processes and moving onto their demonstration, implementation, assessment and iterative improvement.
