NAVY TRAINING SYSTEM PLAN
FOR THE
CH-60S MULTI-MISSION HELICOPTER
N88-NTSP-A-50-9902/A
AUGUST 2000
EXECUTIVE SUMMARY
The CH-60S will be a single main rotor helicopter derived from the U.S. Navy's SH-60 Seahawk series and U.S. Army's UH-60 Blackhawk series helicopters. The CH-60S is scheduled to replace the H-46, H-3, H-1, HH-60H, and MH-53 helicopters. The primary missions of the CH-60S will include Vertical Replenishment, Amphibious Search and Rescue, Vertical Onboard Delivery, Airhead Operations, Airborne Mine Countermeasures and Combat Search and Rescue (CSAR). Secondary missions will include Special Warfare Support (SWS), Medical Evacuation, and Non-combatant Evacuation Operations. The CSAR/SWS version of the CH-60S will have additional mission equipment installed that will provide the Navy with capabilities for CSAR and SWS in both the active carrier-based Helicopter Antisubmarine Squadrons (HS) and the Reserve Helicopter Combat Support (Special) (HCS) Squadrons. A future upgrade is planned to incorporate Airborne Mine Countermeasures (AMCM) into the CH-60S. These are proposed as modular additions to the base aircraft with the Initial Operating Capability (IOC) in Fiscal Year 2006. AMCM equipment is still under development and is not specifically addressed in this NTSP. When the proposed solutions are finalized, this NTSP will be updated. The CH-60S is an ACAT-IC acquisition currently in Phase II, Engineering and Manufacturing Development. Initial Operating Capability is scheduled for October 2001.
A standard crew of four composed of one Pilot, one Co-Pilot, and two Enlisted Aircrewmen will operate the CH-60S. It is projected that no additional enlisted ratings or Naval Officer Billet Classifications (NOBC) will be required to support the CH-60S. As such, the operator and maintainer manpower for the CH-60S will come from existing Navy Helicopter Combat Support (HC), Helicopter Combat Support Special (HCS), and Helicopter Antisubmarine (HS) squadron manpower. A new Navy Enlisted Classification applicable to the CH-60S was assigned to enlisted aircrewmen (8502) and is planned for Aviation Electronics Technicians. Helicopter Mine Countermeasures Squadron (HM) squadron manpower requirements have not yet been determined. When they are developed, they will be included in future updates to this Navy Training System Plan.
The H-60 In-Service Support Team at NAVAVNDEPOT Cherry Point, North Carolina, is leading an effort to change the current H-60 maintenance concept. This concept is the H-60 Integrated Maintenance Concept, a Reliability Centered Maintenance-based approach to maintaining aircraft. This effort will repackage all H-60 maintenance tasks to combine organizational, intermediate, and depot level maintenance efforts to be performed on-site between deployments. Depot artisans would be permanently assigned to H-60 home sites and over a specified period of time, would perform Standard Depot Level Maintenance (SDLM)-like tasks on the aircraft, but with much more frequency than the current 8-11 year SDLM cycle. Organizational level would still have at-sea requirements, but the bulk of inspections and preventive maintenance tasks would be performed in-port by integrated organizational level, intermediate level, and depot level teams between deployments.
The CH-60S training program will consist of initial and follow-on training for operators and maintenance personnel. The contractor will provide initial operator and maintenance training for Navy Test and Evaluation personnel in support of Developmental Test and Operational Test. The contractor will also develop and conduct initial training for Fleet Readiness Squadron instructors, Naval Aviation Maintenance Training Group Detachment instructors, and an initial cadre of Fleet personnel holding H-60 Navy Enlisted Classification (NEC) codes. CH-60S follow-on maintenance training will be provided through courses modified to include CH-60S data. Maintenance training will be conducted at Maintenance Training Unit (MTU) 1066, Naval Station Mayport, Florida; MTU 1022, NAS North Island, California; and MTU TBD, Naval Base (NB) Norfolk, Virginia. CH-60S operator training will be provided by HC-3 beginning in FY01. Follow-on maintenance training in FY01 through FY03 will be provided by Contractor Engineering and Technical Services/Navy Engineering and Technical Services at Naval Base (NB) Norfolk.

D. SYSTEM DESCRIPTION
1. Operational Uses. The primary missions of the CH-60S will include, but are not limited to, day and night Vertical Replenishment, day and night Amphibious Search and Rescue (SAR), Vertical Onboard Delivery, Airhead Operations, Airborne Mine Countermeasures, and Combat Search and Rescue (CSAR). Secondary missions of the CH-60S will include Special Warfare Support (SWS), Medical Evacuation, and Non-combatant Evacuation Operations. Additional missions include recovery of torpedoes, drones, unmanned aerial vehicles, and unmanned undersea vehicles; humanitarian assistance; executive transport; and disaster relief. A future upgrade is planned to incorporate Airborne Mine Countermeasures (AMCM) into the CH-60S. These are proposed as modular additions to the base aircraft with the Initial Operating Capability (IOC) in Fiscal Year 2005. AMCM equipment is still under development and is not specifically addressed in this NTSP. When the proposed solutions are finalized, they will be included in future updates to this NTSP.
The CSAR/SWS version of the CH-60S will have additional mission equipment installed that will provide the Navy with capabilities for CSAR and SWS in both the active carrier-based Helicopter Antisubmarine Squadrons (HS) and in the Reserve Helicopter Combat Support Special (HCS) Squadrons.
2. Foreign Military Sales. There is currently Foreign Military Sales (FMS) interest (but no firm plans) for the CH-60S helicopter.
E. DEVELOPMENTAL TEST AND OPERATIONAL TEST. The CH-60S Integrated Test Team, composed of contractor and U.S. Navy Test and Evaluation personnel, completed a successful Developmental and Operational Assessment (IT-II/OT-IIA) of a prototype CH-60S during first quarter Fiscal Year (FY) 98.
Developmental Test (DT) (CT/DT-IIA) and Operational Test (OT) (OT-IIB) of production representative CH-60S helicopters is scheduled to begin in April 2000, by contractor and U.S. Navy Test and Evaluation personnel onboard Naval Air Station (NAS) Patuxent River, Maryland.
DT (DT-IIIA) and OT (OT-IIIB) of the CSAR version of the CH-60S is scheduled to begin in fourth quarter FY04.
F. AIRCRAFT AND/OR EQUIPMENT/SYSTEM/SUBSYSTEM REPLACED. Based on the Helicopter Master Plan, Weapon Systems Planning Document, and the H-60R/S Fleet Introduction Team (FIT) transition plan, the CH-60S will first replace the H-46D helicopters in active Navy Helicopter Combat Support (HC) Squadrons. As the H-46s are replaced, the CH-60S will begin to transition into the AMCM squadrons providing an organic Navy H-60 AMCM capability. Similarly, the CH-60S will transition into the Reserve HCS squadrons providing an increased CSAR capability. Next, the CH-60S will replace the HH-60H helicopters in the Active HS squadrons concurrently with the introduction of the SH-60R into those squadrons.

3. New Development Introduction. The CH-60S helicopter will be introduced to the Navy as a new production aircraft.
4. Significant Interfaces. The CH-60S cockpit and communication and navigation equipment package will be common with the SH-60R helicopter. The two platforms will share existing support infrastructure (e.g., technical publications, support equipment, training pipelines, training devices, spares) to the maximum extent possible to avoid further requirements for support infrastructure.
5. New Features, Configurations, or Material. NA
H. CONCEPTS
1. Operational Concept. The CH-60S will be operated by a standard crew of four composed of one Pilot, one Co-Pilot, and two enlisted Aircrewmen (the number of aircrewmen will vary with type of mission). The aircraft will operate in a variety of mission areas consistent with operational uses stated in Paragraph D.1., and as outlined in the applicable Required Operational Capabilities (ROC) and Projected Operating Environment (POE) documents.
2. Maintenance Concept. The maintenance concept for the CH-60S is based on the three levels of maintenance per the Naval Aviation Maintenance Program, OPNAVINST 4790.2G. The H-60 In-Service Support Team (ISST) at the Naval Aviation Depot (NAVAVNDEPOT) Cherry Point is leading an effort to change the current H-60 helicopter maintenance concept. This concept is the H-60 Integrated Maintenance Concept (IMC), a Reliability Centered Maintenance (RCM)-based approach to maintaining aircraft. This effort will repackage all H-60 maintenance tasks to combine organizational, intermediate, and depot level maintenance efforts to be performed on-site between deployments. Depot artisans would be permanently assigned to H-60 home sites and over a specified period of time, would perform Standard Depot Level Maintenance (SDLM)-like tasks on the aircraft, but with much more frequency than the current 8-11 year SDLM cycle. Organizational level would still have at-sea requirements, but the bulk of inspections and preventive maintenance tasks would be performed in-port between deployments by integrated organizational level, intermediate level, and depot level teams.
a. Organizational. Organizational level maintenance functions will consist of those maintenance actions normally performed by an operating activity in support of its day-to-day operations.
(1) Preventive Maintenance. Preventive Maintenance consists of scheduled inspections and servicing requirements as prescribed by the applicable Maintenance Requirements Cards. The frequency and duration of preventive maintenance actions will be similar to the existing Navy H-60 150-hour A, B, C, and D series phased inspections, as well as the daily, turnaround, conditional, and special inspection requirements. The CH-60S maintenance program will incorporate and maintain a RCM program.
(2) Corrective Maintenance. Corrective Maintenance will consist of fault isolation to a defective Weapon Replaceable Assembly (WRA) or Shop Replaceable Assembly (SRA), removal and replacement of defective WRAs or SRAs, and verification of the repair using Built-In Test, the appropriate test sets, or Common Support Equipment (CSE). WRAs and SRAs requiring repair beyond the capability of the organizational level will be forwarded to the appropriate Aircraft Intermediate Maintenance Activity (AIMD). The CH-60S will have the capability to support an Integrated Mechanical Diagnostics System.
b. Intermediate. Intermediate level maintenance is performed on those WRAs and SRAs beyond the organizational maintenance level capability. Intermediate level maintenance consists of fault isolating defective WRAs and SRAs by using CSE and Peculiar Support Equipment (PSE), replacing faulty SRAs and components, and verifying corrective action via the appropriate CSE and PSE. Intermediate level maintenance capability will be provided at aircraft carrier-based AIMDs, as well as the following shored-based AIMDs: North Island, California; Norfolk, Virginia; Jacksonville, Florida; Atsugi, Japan; and Sigonella, Sicily.
Limited intermediate level repair capability is planned for the LHA and LHD type ships supporting the deployed HC SAR detachments. While avionic WRA and/or SRA repair capability is anticipated to be negligible, some Consolidated Automated Support System (CASS) Test Program Sets (TPS) are planned along with possible pre-existing support for several common avionics components. Additionally, Aviation Life Support System (ALSS) equipment, tire and wheel, hydraulic, battery, and composite repair facilities and capabilities are anticipated to be utilized in support of CH-60S operation. Navy T700-401C engine first degree repair effort currently being performed by Marine Aviation Logistics Squadron (MALS)-36 at Marine Corps Air Station (MCAS) Futenma, Okinawa, Japan, is being evaluated for transition to AIMD Naval Air Facility (NAF) Atsugi, Japan.
An organizational-to-depot, or organizational-to-original equipment manufacturer maintenance concept, and/or a streamlined AIMD for fault verification may be implemented for select CH-60S equipment. The contractor will perform a Level Of Repair Analysis on select new SRAs to determine where each should be repaired.
c. Depot. Depot level maintenance consists of major overhaul of the aircraft or the rebuilding, manufacture, and modification of parts, assemblies, and subassemblies beyond the capabilities of the IMA. Depot level maintenance of the CH-60S will be performed at Corpus Christi Army Depot, Corpus Christi, Texas. The ISST for the CH-60S will be located at NAVAVNDEPOT Cherry Point, North Carolina. Depot level maintenance for the CH-60S is planned to be the IMC program.
d. Interim Maintenance. Repair and maintenance of the CH-60S weapon system and Support Equipment (SE) during the interim support phase will be a joint contractor and Navy responsibility. The Navy will repair all material for which organic support exists and both Sikorsky Aircraft Corporation and Lockheed Martin Federal Systems will provide field support as necessary.
Contractor Engineering and Technical Services (CETS) will be employed during the interim support phase. This is particularly important at Naval Base (NB) Norfolk and Andersen Air Force Base, Guam, where transition to the CH-60S represents the introduction of the H-60 platform into these geographic areas. CH-60S Material Support Date (MSD) is October 2003 and Navy Support Date (NSD) is October 2004.
e. Life-Cycle Maintenance Plan. The CH-60S Life-Cycle Maintenance Plan is still under development. When available, it will be included in future updates to this document.
3. Manning Concept. Based on a cursory analysis of the operator and maintainer tasks expected to be associated with the CH-60S and its equipment, these tasks have been determined to be within the capabilities of the Navy's existing enlisted rating and officer Navy Officer Billet Classification (NOBC) structures. As a result, it is estimated that no new enlisted ratings or officer NOBCs will be required to support the CH-60S. As such, the operator and maintainer manpower for the CH-60S will come from existing Navy HC, HCS, and HS squadron manpower. Helicopter Mine Countermeasures Squadron (HM) squadron manpower requirements have not yet been determined. When available, they will be included in future updates to this NTSP.
A new Navy Enlisted Classification (NEC) applicable to the CH-60S will be assigned to enlisted aircrewmen and Aviation Electronics Technicians (AT). Throughout this NTSP the new NECs will be indicated by 8502 for aircrewmen, 83XX and 88XX for organizational level ATs.
In HC activities, the CH-60S will be deployed in a dual helicopter detachment concept. With the exception of the Fleet Readiness Squadron (FRS), each HC activity is divided into a shore duty and sea duty component for the purposes of manpower. The sea duty component (or detachment) qualitative and quantitative manpower requirements for the CH-60S were determined by utilizing the HH-60 helicopter preventive and corrective maintenance requirements combined with the operational requirements contained in the draft ROC/POE for the CH-60S.
All HC squadron administrative support will be assigned to the shore duty component of that particular squadron. Administrative support for each deployed detachment will be provided on-site by the particular ship embarked upon.
4. Training Concept. The CH-60S training program will consist of initial and follow-on training for operators and maintenance personnel. The contractor will provide initial operator and maintenance training for Navy Test and Evaluation personnel in support of DT and OT. The contractor will also develop and conduct initial training for FRS instructors, Naval Aviation Maintenance Training Group (NAMTRAGRU) instructors, and an initial cadre of Fleet personnel. CH-60S follow-on (i.e., replacement) training will be provided through existing courses that will be modified to include CH-60S data. This training will be held at the following locations:
- Transition Training - Norfolk, Virginia (FY01 through FY03).
- Maintenance Training Unit (MTU) 1066, Naval Air Maintenance Training Group Detachment (NAMTRAGRU DET), Mayport
- MTU 1022, NAMTRAGRU DET, North Island
- MTU TBD, NAMTRAGRU DET Norfolk (FY03)
Note: Aviation Ordnancemen will not require follow-on training for the CH-60S.
a. Initial Training. In order to support DT, Sikorsky Aircraft Corporation has been contracted to develop and conduct one session of Initial CH-60S Differences training for Navy Test and Evaluation personnel beginning six weeks prior to the first DT Flight Test. This training will be held at the contractor's facilities.
In support of OT, Sikorsky Aircraft Corporation will develop and conduct one session of Initial CH-60S Differences training at NAS Patuxent River, Maryland, for Navy Test and Evaluation personnel. This second block of training is scheduled for August 2000.
Sikorsky Aircraft Corporation will also develop and conduct two sessions of Initial CH-60S Differences training (Cadre) at NAS North Island, California, for FRS and NAMTG instructors, and an initial cadre of fleet personnel possessing H-60 NECs. This third block of initial training is scheduled concurrent with FRS aircraft introduction. The contractor will provide this training and all required materials.
Specific information for CH-60S initial training is not available at this time, however, it is estimated that the following courses will be required:

I. ONBOARD (IN-SERVICE) TRAINING
1. Proficiency or Other Training Organic to the New Development. The Aviation Maintenance Training Continuum System (AMTCS) will provide career path training to the Sailor or Marine from their initial service entry to the end of their military career. AMTCS is planned to be an integrated system that will satisfy the training and administrative requirements of both the individual and the organization. The benefits will be manifested in the increased effectiveness of the technicians and the increased efficiencies of the management of the training business process. By capitalizing on technological advances and integrating systems and processes where appropriate, the right amount of training can be provided at the right time, thus meeting the CNO's mandated "just-in-time" training approach.
Technology investments enable the development of several state-of-the-art training and administrative tools: Computer-Based Training (CBT) for the technicians in the Fleet in the form of Interactive Courseware (ICW) with Computer Managed Instruction (CMI) and Computer Aided Instruction (CAI) for the schoolhouse.
Included in the AMTCS development effort is the Aviation Maintenance Training Continuum System - Software Module (ASM) which provides testing [Test and Evaluation (TEV)], recording [Electronic Training Jacket (ETJ)], and a Feedback system. The core functionality of these AMTCS tools are based and designed around the actual maintenance-related tasks the technicians perform, and the tasks are stored and maintained in a Master Task List (MTL) data bank. These tools are procured and fielded with appropriate COTS hardware and software, i.e., Fleet Training Devices (FTD) - Laptops, PCs, Electronic Classrooms (ECR), Learning Resource Centers (LRC), operating software, and network software and hardware.
Upon receipt of direction from OPNAV (N889H), AMTCS is to be implemented and the new tools integrated into the daily training environment of all participating aviation activities and supporting elements. AMTCS will serve as the standard training system for aviation maintenance training within the Navy and Marine Corps, and is planned to supersede the existing MTIP and Maintenance Training Management and Evaluation Program (MATMEP) programs.
The AMTCS Project Plan denotes that NAMTRAGRU MTUs 1022 and 1066 began the transition to CBT in second quarter FY98 and is estimated to be complete late FY00. Therefore, it is anticipated that H-60 maintenance training will be in CBT/Computer Aided Instruction format prior to the CH-60S curriculum being introduced. The Naval Aviation Training Systems Program Office (PMA205) will develop a separate CH-60S CBT that will be incorporated into the existing H-60 CBT. This CH-60S CBT will be compatible with the legacy H-60 CBT and be utilized in the AMTCS environment.
2. Personnel Qualification Standards. Currently, the reserve HCS squadrons utilize Personnel Qualification Standards to train and qualify pilots and enlisted aircrewmen in the HH-60H helicopter.
3. Other Onboard or In-service Training Packages. AD, AE, AMH, and AMS personnel who were previously trained and awarded NECs 8378 or 8878 will retain these NECs for the CH-60S helicopter. These personnel will acquire the sufficient knowledge and skills of the CH-60S systems through the on-the-job-training process and may be supplemented by contractor engineering and technical services.

2. Program Documentation. The Draft CH-60S Acquisition Logistics Support Plan has been distributed and applies to all phases of the CH-60S life-cycle beginning with the initial demonstration and ending with phase out of the CH-60S Helicopter. It serves as the primary plan and guide for the management of the Acquisition Logistics Support program. It will be used by the Program Manager, Air (PMA299) in monitoring and controlling the progress of logistics while achieving assigned task objectives, schedules, and responsibilities.
3. Technical Data Plan. The CH-60S technical publications will be produced, distributed, and supported in an Integrated Electronic Technical Manual (IETM) format, including software and hardware support. The CH-60S technical publications will support the airframe, avionics, engine, and support equipment, and will be developed with close coordination between Naval Air Technical Data and Engineering Service Command, applicable Naval Air Systems Command (NAVAIRSYSCOM) Field Activities, contractor personnel, and the H-60R/S Fleet Introduction Team.
4. Test Sets, Tools, and Test Equipment. Since the CH-60S is a derivative of other existing H-60 systems, most of the support equipment required is available in the Government inventory. Newly designed CH-60S avionics systems will be fielded with a combination of organic intermediate level support compatible with CASS, an organizational-to-depot, or organizational-to-original equipment manufacturer maintenance concept; and/or a streamlined AIMD for fault verification may be implemented for select CH-60S equipment. All test requirements will be with CASS, unless significant economic and readiness benefits result from use of a unique test set.
5. Repair Parts. Naval Inventory Control Point (NAVICP) files will be updated to reflect CH-60S applicability to the HH-60H common parts. A Parts Difference List will be developed using the HH-60H and CH-60S Engineering Gross Requirements List (GRL) and applicable NAVICP tapes. A comparison of the HH-60H and CH-60S GRLs will result in a list of items that are peculiar to the HH-60H only. The contractor will extract these items from the NAVICP tape to produce a list of items common to the CH-60S for delivering to NAVICP. Support for the Common Cockpit may change to "Original Equipment Manufacturer". This could result in the elimination of organic intermediate and depot levels spare and repair part requirements. As a result of the change in support concept, organizational level spare requirements will increase. The proposed range of spares will remain unchanged; however, the depth will increase because of increased turnaround time resulting from the time required to ship retrograde non-ready for issue assets back to the Continental United States contractor, then repair the items and return them to the fleet. Material Support Date for the CH-60S is October 2003.
6. Human Systems Integration. The Human Systems Integration (HSI) Plan establishes the basis for effective integration of human factors engineering, manpower, personnel, training, health hazards, and safety considerations into the CH-60S acquisition as outlined in Department of Defense (DoD) Instruction 5000.2R. The NAVAIRSYSCOM Multi-Mission Helicopter HSI Integrated Process Team is currently working on the draft version of this plan.
K. SCHEDULES
1. Installation and Delivery Schedules. Refer to PMA 299. Installation and delivery schedule is denoted in NAVAIRNOTE 13100 CH-60S Weapon System Planning Document.
2. Ready For Operational Use Schedule. The CH-60S will be ready for operational use upon acceptance by the operating activity.
3. Time Required to Install at Operational Sites. NA
4. Foreign Military Sales and Other Source Delivery Schedule. There are currently no plans for FMS of the CH-60S helicopter.
5. Training Device and Technical Training Equipment Delivery Schedule. The CH-60S training system will include both operator and maintenance training. All CH-60S training devices will be common with the current training suites to the greatest extent and will provide a growth path to the SH-60R. All training devices will utilize a common H-60 weapon system design architecture and will comply with DoD directives for networking as applicable in their design.
a. Operator Training Devices. Operator training will utilize a Tactical / Operational Flight Trainer (T/OFT). This device will integrate full aircraft system functionality of the pilot station, provide a flight fidelity visual system, and will provide simulation of the full range of aircraft missions.
(1) Weapon System Trainer. There are currently eight H-60 Weapon System Trainers (WSTs). Four of these are SH-60F trainers and four are SH-60B trainers. These trainers are composed of a front cockpit Operational Flight Trainer (OFT) and a rear cabin Sensor Operator/Acoustic Trainer (SO/AT). When these trainers are linked for tactical operations they are designated WSTs. Under the current H-60R/S master training plan, these trainers will be modified to SH-60R WSTs and will have a Common CH-60S/SH-60R Cockpit in the OFT that may be utilized for CH-60S aircrew training.
(2) Tactical/Operational Flight Trainer. There are currently two H-60 T/OFTs under construction. Both of these are SH-60B trainers. Under the current CH-60S (and SH-60R) training concept, both of these trainers will be modified to CH-60S/SH-60R T/OFTs. In addition, two more of these trainers will be purchased for a total of four (a fifth T/OFT at NAF Atsugi is TBD). These trainers will be non-motion based flight simulators that support pilot and co-pilot tactics, navigation, equipment malfunction, communications, aircrew coordination, and emergency procedures training as applicable. The visual systems will include a high fidelity day-night image generator, databases, and night vision device compatibility. The T/OFT will improve aviation safety by allowing the aircrew to practice emergency procedures and refine their aircrew coordination skills. The following table displays the location of the WSTs and T/OFTs and their estimated Ready For Training (RFT) dates.
