NAVY TRAINING SYSTEM PLAN
FOR THE
A/M 32C-21 MOBILE AIR CONDITIONER
N88-NTSP-A-50-8617A/A
JULY 2000
This Navy Training System Plan (NTSP) has been developed to identify the lifecycle manpower, personnel, and training requirements associated with the A/M 32C-21 Mobile Air Conditioner. This NTSP contains background information on the data and concepts that led to this training plan. This program is in Phase III (Production, Deployment, and Operational Support) of the Weapon System Acquisition Process. Initial Operational Capability was attained in November 1987.
The A/M 32C-21 Mobile Air Conditioner is a mobile, trailer-mounted, electric-powered, self-contained air conditioner. It is designed for use both ashore and afloat to cool, dehumidify, and filter air for electronic equipment within aircraft cabins and aircraft equipment compartments. The A/M 32C-21 Mobile Air Conditioner replaced the NR-5C Mobile Air Conditioner.
The A/M 32C-21 Mobile Air Conditioner is maintained by Navy Aviation Support Equipment Technicians with Navy Enlisted Classification 7603. All maintenance is performed in accordance with the Naval Aviation Maintenance Program, OPNAVINST 4790.2 (series) which is based on three levels of maintenance, organizational, intermediate, and depot.
Delivery of the A/M 32C-21 Mobile Air Conditioner began in November 1987. Final deliveries were made in August 1989. Due to similarities of operation and maintenance with the NR-5C, no initial training was required for the A/M 32C-21 Mobile Air Conditioner. Follow-on operator training is being conducted on an as-required basis at local Aircraft Intermediate Maintenance Departments. Organizational maintenance is limited to routine servicing and inspections. No organizational maintenance training is required. Intermediate maintenance training is conducted by Maintenance Training Unit (MTU) 3032 Naval Air Maintenance Training Unit (NAMTRAU), Jacksonville, Florida, and MTU 3033 NAMTRAU, North Island, California. Navy training track D/E-602-7035, Mobile Air Conditioner Intermediate Maintenance, is current, and includes A/M 32C-21 Mobile Air Conditioner intermediate maintenance.

3. Manning Concept. No changes are required to the existing billet structure or to the available skill levels. The A/M 32C-21 is maintained by active duty and reserve Navy Aviation Support Equipment Technicians (AS) with Navy Enlisted Classification (NEC) 6703 assigned to Navy AIMDs, Work Center 970.
4. Training Concept. Follow-on operator training for the A/M 32C-21 unit is taught at local AIMDs. Follow-on intermediate maintenance training is provided by Maintenance Training Unit (MTU) 3032 Naval Air Maintenance Training Unit (NAMTRAU), Jacksonville, Florida, and MTU 3033 NAMTRAU North Island, California.
Selected Reserve personnel may earn intermediate level maintenance qualifications by attending formal training at NAMTRAUs, providing quotas, funding, and students are available to attend the training.

I. ONBOARD (IN-SERVICE) TRAINING
1. Proficiency or Other Training Organic to the New Development
a. 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 Commercial off The Shelf (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.
