The finalists will receive funding and other resources from the Air Force to implement their innovations. Oralia Howard, Launcher Overspray Protectors :Īnother Europe-based airman out of RAF Lakenheath, England, put forth a set of “overspray protectors.” The protectors replace tape to cover critical components and markings while conducting scheduled inspections and maintenance on missile launchers for F-15 Strike Eagles and F-16 Fighting Falcons. It’s a completely self-contained fighter wing in a box," he added. The modified trailer “makes it so we’re not reliant on anybody or anything. “The way we move around is too slow,” Steht said. The proposal is for a modified semi-truck trailer designed to quickly lug fighter aircraft between staging areas. An adaptive basing concept from two Air National Guardsmen out of Fresno, California, though, streamlines the time to five hours and 12 people. The rapid deployment of four aircraft can take 72 hours and more than 40 people to get off the ground, allowing the enemy more time to prepare for an attack. “Essentially, it will compile these hundreds of data points from the same government sources a forecaster would, but it would do it in a fraction of the time," Bamieh said, adding that the software could save the Air Force roughly 48,000 man hours per year. Lexi software, though, can streamline the process. These are time consuming, but they include important information on turbulence, ice conditions, and more.
The software has the ability to compile data points from multiple locations, make logical decisions based on these data points and then assist a forecaster by preparing the mission execution forecast.Įveryday, weather airmen produce mission execution forecasts for pilots, command staff, and even intelligence agencies. Made by a preparatory cadet at the Air Force Academy, Lexi is an innovative computer software that helps weather forecasters develop products for customers. Preparatory School Cadet Usama Bamieh, Lexi software : “If divers, race car drivers, and astronauts have unique bi-directional audio and video technology, why shouldn’t we have the same technology?” the inventors' submission asks.
