1 The Army Reserve 2004 Tactical Wheeled Vehicles Conference 1- 3 February 2004 MG Skip Philips U.S. Army Reserve

2 The Army Reserve A Complementary Force vs. a Supplementary Force – no longer a force in reserve Inactive Duty to Active Duty to Inactive Duty Mission Capable not mobilization capable Reduced structure with same end strength—fully manned units with modernized equipment –TTHS Account to account for non-ready soldiers Practiced, Institutionalized, Leader Development and Growth through PME and Developmental Assignments –PME outside the unit while in a training status

3 The Army Reserve ThenNow Oct 2002 to Present Operation Iraqi Freedom + 79,123 troops Oct 2002 to Present Operation Iraqi Freedom + 79,123 troops Finite Period Of Mobilization ContinuousMobilization(Institutional) MOB BOOTS ON GROUND DEMOB RESET/RETRAIN SUSTAIN ALERT

4 The Army Reserve Reduce strategic lift requirements Reduce logistics footprint in area of operations with the commonality in equipment platforms Reduce inventories through management of like type equipment requirements Reduce costs through reduced inventories and force structure Reduce O&S costs and training time Reduction in requisitioning, shipping and receiving errors

5 The Army Reserve Optimize force structure through the Army RESET process (personnel & equipment) Maintain readiness posture Single Theater CS/CSS (Theater Support Command) Forward presence

7 The Army Reserve New Procurement  Projected in Procurement-1R submission (require a minimum of $400M per year)  Funded through Other Procurement, Army appropriation The Redistribution or Cascading of Equipment from the Active Component  The Army Reserve has 42% of the Army’s combat service support structure  As such, little combat service support equipment is cascaded from the Active Component to the Army Reserve  Likewise, little or no funding accompanies the equipment that is cascaded to restore it to the appropriate standards Recapitalization of Old (Legacy) Equipment  The rebuild and selected upgrade of currently fielded systems to a zero mile/zero time system  Limited benefit from Army Recap program for the Army Reserve Congressional Adds  Funding earmarked for specific equipment National Guard and Reserve Equipment Appropriation (NGREA)  Started in 1981, NGREA is congressional directed program providing funds to the Reserve Components to improve readiness.  Enables economical stewardship of resources by providing the flexibility to acquire new equipment and rebuild/overhaul/refurbish existing systems.

9 The Army Reserve *ALL SOURCES = P1-R, NGREA, CONG ADDS

10 The Army Reserve HISTORICALLY, FUNDING TENDS TO SLIP TO THE RIGHT FMTV EXAMPLE

11 The Army Reserve BOTTOMLINE: Equipment exceeds *Economical Usage Life (EUL) DATA SOURCE: LOGSA, MAY 03  Green = Fleet Average Age equals ½ EUL or Less.  Yellow = Fleet Average Age > than ½ EUL and < EUL  Orange = Fleet Average exceeds EUL + 10 years  Red = Fleet Average Age exceeds EUL + 10- 20yrs

12 The Army Reserve High Mobility Multi-Purpose Wheeled Vehicles (99) High Mobility Multi-Purpose Wheeled Vehicles (99) 10K/4K Forklifts (122) 10K/4K Forklifts (122) 5000 Gal Fuel Tankers (65) 5000 Gal Fuel Tankers (65) M787 Yard Tractors (12) M787 Yard Tractors (12) M915 Line Haul Tractors (111) M915 Line Haul Tractors (111) HEMTT Cargo Truck & Fuel Tankers (13/6) HEMTT Cargo Truck & Fuel Tankers (13/6) 5-Ton Dump Trucks (17) 5-Ton Dump Trucks (17) 5-Ton Cargo Trucks (102) 5-Ton Cargo Trucks (102) 22.5 Ton Semi-Trailers (140) 22.5 Ton Semi-Trailers (140) HMMWV Yard Tractor M915 Tractor HEMTT Cargo

13 The Army Reserve Unit Readiness Reporting only reports approximately 9% of total equipment. Operational Readiness rates for non-reportable equipment is a challenge for the Army Reserve because of the age of the non- reportable TWV fleet......limited visibility. Additional maintenance and rebuild funds are needed to support aging Army Reserve tactical wheeled vehicles and the increase in OPTEMPO due to OIF requirements.

14 The Army Reserve Lack of adequate funding stream to purchase or upgrade TWV fleet Reduced or decremented system quantities and delayed fieldings impacts the ability to meet Transformation goals Aging equipment is expensive and labor-intensive to maintain and sustainment funding must be increased Substitute or in-lieu-of items perpetuate incompatibility and interoperability issues. These incompatibility issues create impediments to supporting the digitized force and OIF requirements Limited benefit from Army Recap program for the Army Reserve BOTTOMLINE: Shortage of new equipment procurement (P-1R) makes funding provided through NGREA, Congressional Add and support of Depot Maintenance Programs vital to the readiness of the Army Reserve TWV fleet

15 The Army Reserve “First is the Soldier. Our Soldiers are paramount. They will remain the centerpiece of our thinking, our systems, and our combat formations. We must always remember, ‘Humans are more important than hardware’. We must always remember that Soldiers ARE the Army.” - Peter J. Schoomaker, CSA AUSA 2003 Washington, DC Person of the Year represents 2.6 million men and women of the Armed Forces
