9
Policy Principles
  • Mobility through the air is vital to economic
    stability, growth, and security as a nation
  • Aviation is vital to national security and
    homeland defense
  • Aviation safety is paramount
  • Security of and within the aeronautics enterprise
    must be maintained
  • The U.S. should continue to possess, rely on, and
    develop its world-class aeronautics workforce
  • Assuring energy availability and efficiency is
    central to the growth of the aeronautics
    enterprise
  • The environment must be protected while
    sustaining growth in air transportation

10
Policy Goal
Broad vision as an overarching goal
  • Advance U.S. technological leadership in
    aeronautics by fostering a vibrant and dynamic
    aeronautics RD community that includes
    government, industry, and academia

11
Policy Objectives
  • Provide long-term stability and focus in
    innovative research
  • Pursue and develop promising advanced aircraft
    concepts and technologies
  • For military applications
  • To enable increased air traffic capacity and new
    aircraft concepts in the national airspace
  • Pursue a coordinated approach to managing U.S.
    Government aeronautics RDTE infrastructure
  • Identify the roles of the Federal Government in
    aeronautics RD and the interrelationship with
    the private sector
  • Cultivate a RD environment that enables a
    globally competitive U.S. aeronautics enterprise
  • Enhance coordination and communication within the
    Federal Government
  • Strengthen mechanisms to engage partners in
    industry and academia

12
General Policy Guidelines
  • Role of the Federal Government in Aeronautics RD
  • National defense and homeland security
  • Long-term fundamental aeronautics research
  • More advanced, applied civil aeronautics research
    for
  • Public interest
  • To address gaps
  • Government internal RD
  • Aeronautics Workforce
  • Academic Cooperation
  • Commercial Cooperation
  • International Relations

13
Specific Guidelines
  • Stable and Long-Term Foundational Research

Policy Implementation
  • National aeronautics RD plan
  • Priorities and objectives, milestones, timelines
  • Aeronautics RDTE infrastructure plan
  • Engagement with non-Federal stakeholders
  • Dissemination of RD results
  • Other innovative policies and approaches that
    complement and enhance Federal activities
  • Biennial review procedure

18
Strategy for Development of National Aeronautics
RD Plan and Infrastructure Plan
19
Strategy for Development of Plans
  • Identify Policy principles as key areas to be
    addressed
  • Create Coordinating Groups
  • Mobility
  • National Security and Homeland Defense
  • Aviation Safety
  • Aviation Security
  • Energy and Environment
  • RDTE Infrastructure
  • Ensure Coordinating Groups address Policy
    guidelines

20
Coordinating Group Leads
  • Mobility
  • JPDO, NASA
  • National Security and Homeland Defense
  • DoD
  • Aviation Safety
  • FAA, NASA
  • Aviation Security
  • DHS
  • Energy and Environment
  • DOE, DoD, FAA
  • RDTE Infrastructure
  • NASA, DoD

21
National Aeronautics RD Plan Content
  • State-of-the-art for each principle (where we are
    today)
  • Top-level prioritized national aeronautics RD
    goals and objectives (where we want to go)
  • Summarize RD activities for meeting goals and
    develop timelines (how we get there)
  • Near term (lt5 years)
  • Mid term (5-10 years)
  • Far term (gt10 years)
  • Identify significant gaps and/or unnecessary
    duplication
  • Identify cross-cutting areas of aeronautics RD

22
RDTE Infrastructure Plan
  • Determination of assets that are considered
    critical from a national perspective and
    definition of an approach for constructing,
    maintaining, modifying, or terminating these
    assets
  • Development of cost and usage policies that
    facilitate interagency cooperation and
    utilization, as well as appropriate access by
    non-federal users
  • Improvements in coordination of RDTE needs among
    the US Government and across the broader user
    community
  • Addresses both physical and computational assets

  • Capability-based planning
  • DoD Air Platforms taxonomy
  • Treat and manage other technical
    areas/disciplines as interfaces
  • Engage key people and processes
  • Organic technical planning processes and
    structures
  • Appropriate technical interchange meetings
  • Connect with other departments and agencies to
    ensure national needs are met
