Amentum provides maintenance, modification, repair, and logistics for 100+ aircraft, weapons systems, and other support equipment for the Department of Defense and other government agencies at NAS Patuxent River, MD. Naval Test Wing Atlantic (NTWL) is the Navy’s principal flight and ground test activity for the development and acquisition of aircraft and aviation systems with a continual focus on war fighting requirements. We provide maintenance support for 4 test squadrons (VX-23, HX-21, VX-20, UX-24) and 31 different Type/Model/Series aircraft along with the U.S. Naval Test Pilot School (USNTPS) where top pilots and engineers train in the art of test and evaluation, as well as primary SH-60 maintenance support for the Search and Rescue (SAR).  As of 2021, Amentum, under its legacy company DynCorp International, has continuously provided maintenance and logistics support at Naval Air Station (NAS) Patuxent River for more than 48 years.

Project Highlights:

• Amentum has supported NTWL continuously since 1973.
• We support 12,000+ flying hours over 8,000+ sorties annually.
• Amentum manages a total of 100+ fixed wing and rotary wing aircraft simultaneously, which include F/A-18Cs, F/A-18Ds, F/A-18E, F/A-18Fs, E/A-18Gs, E-6B, C-38s, T-38Cs, T-6s, T-6A, P-8s, KC-130Ts, C-130T, KC-130J, C-27J, MV-22s, CV-22, V-22EMD, NU-1B, X-26s, U-6As, MQ-8Bs, MQ-8Cs, RQ-26s, RQ-21s, TH-57s, AH-1Zs, UH-1Ys, MH-60Rs, MH-60Ss, OH-58Cs, UH-60A and UH-60Ls.

Amentum provides in-depth functional and programmatic support to train, advise, and assist the Afghanistan Ministry of Interior (MoI) and the Ministry of Defense (MoD), and other security institutions in Afghanistan to assume responsibility for Afghanistan’s own self-sustainable security needs. The program began in late 2019 with 300 qualified advisors, mentors, and interpreters with experience drawn from traditional military and governmental staff functions. Amentum provides security escorts as required by in-country Operations Security (OPSEC) force protection requirements. SMAAP synchronizes the development of MoI and MoD managerial and operational systems across the Directorates and Branches.

Our efforts build organizational capacity and capability at all levels within the MoI and MoD so they can independently plan, program, and manage their Afghanistan National Army (ANA) and Afghanistan National Police (ANP) forces.

This contract is a follow-on effort that combines the ANA and ANP training, advising, and assisting programs that Amentum, through its legacy company DynCorp International, managed through multiple iterations since 2010. The scope of these prior contracts was similar, but also included life support services for 11,000 Afghan and 4,200 U.S. and coalition personnel at our 18 self-sufficient sites. All totaled, Amentum has an 18-year history providing infrastructure support in Afghanistan.

Project Highlights

• From the ANA and ANP predecessor contracts, Amentum met the needs of the government by expeditiously filling unexpected and planned mentor/advisor vacancies with qualified personnel to meet fluctuating operational requirements. Between 2019 and 2020, our fill rate was greater than 97 percent.

Amentum is the largest range support services provider in the world. This footprint includes some of the largest and most comprehensive contracts for the US Navy and the US Air Force.

We currently operate the Combined Tactical Training Ranges (CTTR) contract, and provide technical Engineering, Operations, Maintenance and Program management service for 11 US Navy/Marine Corps training ranges. CTTR supports air, land and sea training exercises for small- to large-unit events. Operations include Live Virtual Constructive (LVC) capabilities.

The J-Tech II contract provides engineering and technical services to support research, development, test and evaluation, training missions, and related support activities for the 412th Test Wing Edwards, Nevada Test and Training Range (NTTR), Utah Test and Training Range, and China Lake Ranges. We provide expert technical knowledge of flight and ground test and training systems, equipment and facilities to support pre-mission, mission and post-mission requirements in areas including Telemetry Systems, Telecommunication Systems, Signal Collect/Monitoring Analysis, Threat Systems, Computer Systems, Instrumentation Systems, Mission Control/Coordination, Data Analysis/Reports, Time-Space Position Information (TSPI)/Scoring Systems, Test/Training Management, and Sustainment Engineering.

We also deliver Range Support Services via RSS II to the NTTR, Leach Lake Tactical Range, and Creech Air Force Base. We provide critical operational mission support as well as target maintenance for testing, tactics development, advanced training, and remotely piloted aircraft combat operations.

Amentum is teamed and supports the Eglin Operations and Maintenance Services contract providing advanced test support and data collection for open air ranges over the Gulf of Mexico, several ground test facilities, and overland ranges.

Finally, Amentum is teamed and supports the Joint Pacific Alaska Range Complex which integrates all domains for advanced training opportunities.

Amentum’s Rotary Wing Flight Training organization provides education and training for initial-entry pilots from the Army, Air Force, and allied nations who are learning to fly rotary-wing aircraft, as well as for experienced military pilots earning their designation as instrument flight examiners. In order to deliver this no-fail mission, Amentum’s exceptionally skilled team of more than 300 instructors provides classroom academic instruction and hands-on flight instruction in three separate aircraft types, full-motion aircraft simulators, and cutting-edge virtual reality technology. Delivering flight training during the day, at night, and in instrument and night-vision goggle conditions, Amentum’s flight instructors teach all aspects of airmanship, from basic flight handling skills to advanced navigation and tactical skills. With more than 2.7 million flight hours collectively, and an unmatched safety record – several of our instructors have been recognized by the FAA for 50 years of accident-free flying – Amentum’s experienced staff remains intimately involved in the continual evolution of the flight training program in support of Fort Rucker, and absolutely integral to developing future generations of military aviators.

Project Highlights

Amentum works with the U.S. Navy to develop flexible education programs as part of the Submarine On Board Training (SOBT) and Sailor 2025 Initiatives. As part of the U.S. Navy’s efforts to increase readiness and improve training, we’re developing interactive courseware (ICW), web / video-based delivery, and 3-D simulation that can be delivered both in-person and remotely through programs such as SONAR and Officer of the Deck. We’ve developed a rapid deployment / targeted / multi-language / internet-based training approach that can create critical topics.

Our instructors have developed classroom and field instruction for key topics, including:

• Operations and Maintenance of various systems on the VIRGINIA-class submarine
• Safe and proper handling of ammunition and explosives
• Operating and assessing data from electronic warfare equipment aboard surface vessels
• Proper and acceptable conduct in foreign ports of call
• Undersea surveillance analysis and watchstanding
• Naval intelligence

Project Highlights:

• Designed and developed more than 1,000 hours of Interactive Multimedia Instruction for the US Navy
• Converted more than 950 hours of factory training developed by various commercial vendors into a blended learning curriculum
• Assigned responsibility for continuous oversight and revision of 25 courses of instruction for the U.S. Navy’s Submarine Force
• Designed and produced more than 100 video training shorts for use by the fleet through the Navy’s Learning Management System
• Designed and developed familiarization and cultural awareness for 88 foreign countries to prepare DoD personnel for a transition to those locations
