The sustainment of previously delivered Block Fleet Releases, ongoing development of flight test and fleet releases and analysis leading to implementation of future Sustainment Block Fleet Releases for the V-22 avionics systems. This effort includes providing engineering, management, and technical sustainment efforts for the on-site V-22 laboratories required to plan, develop, release, and sustain the V-22 avionics systems software.
