Quantifying the Impact of Maintenance Manpower on H-60 Helicopter Readiness in the Army National Guard, WEAI Defense Session, Personnel Factors and Readiness, WEAI June 2020
This research quantified the relationship between maintenance manpower investments and H-60 helicopter readiness in the Army National Guard (ARNG). Using causal econometric methods, we found that increasing the number of MilTech mechanics at ARNG aviation support facilities reduces helicopter maintenance timelines.
