Smith) Pages: 7 Distribution: F This MESL compliments AFI -103, Equipment Inventory, Status, and Utilization Reporti. It applies to all F-16A/B/C/D ACC units. This Addendum applies to Natl Guard (ANG) and Force Reserve Command (AFRC) units and members. Ensure that all records created as a result of processes prescribed in this publication are maintained in accordance with AFMAN (to be replaced by AFMAN ), and are disposed of in accordance with the Force Records Disposition Schedule (RDS) located at Contact supporti records managers as required. Send recommended chaes or comments on AF Form 847, Recommendation for Chae of Publication, to HQ ACC/A4A16, 130 Douglas St., Suite 0, Laley AFB VA , and send information copies to the applicable OCR. SUMMARY OF REVISIONS This document is substantially revised and must be completely reviewed. First, combat capability of the F-16 fleet continues to increase and recently fielded upgrades needed to be added to the MESL. These upgrades include Joint Helmet Mounted Cuei (JHMCS), Link-16, Modular Mi Computer (MMC), as well as the HARM Targeti Set, Sniper, and LITENING targeti pods. Second, all Work s (WUCs) were verified and updated accordily. Finally, systems that were no loer utilized by the F-16 fleet have been removed from the MESL, specifically the Navigation pod (WUC 74P). 1. General. The MESL is the basis of status reporti IAW AFI MESLs lay the ground work for reporti the status of aircraft availability. They list the minimum essential systems and subsystems that must work on an aircraft for it to perform specifically assigned unit wartime, traini, test or other mis. Mi Ready Available (MRA) is used in readiness SORTS reporti only and des MC air-

2 2 AFI-103_ACCSUP1_ADDENDA-U 23 DECEMBER 05 craft capable of bei configured for a contiency mi in accordance with COMACC OMNIBUS Plan Qualifyi s are used to define aircraft exceptions and help explain complex degraded mi systems such as suspension equipment craft status for generation and deployment: The goal is to generate or deploy FMC aircraft, recognizi status actually achieved may be less than FMC. A Not Mi Capable (NMC) aircraft may be deployed provided it is safe for flight and can be configured and generated to MRA status at an employment site All ACC units will generate, or deploy and regenerate, usi ACC MESLs. Major Command differences in MESLs are acknowledged. Upon actual deployment to another MAJCOM theater, the gaini MAJCOM has the responsibility to resource and specify the unit s requirements, and resource the differences in support/mi equipment A MESL is read by compari the systems stated by work unit code (WUC) against the s (FSL) and all applicable Basic s (BSL) across the page. Each unit s Design Operatl Capability (DOC) statement determines applicability of BSL columns. The aircraft MESLs incorporate all ACC assigned aircraft and therefore it is important to compare only those columns listed in the MESL that are applicable to the unit s assigned aircraft. For example, units with CC (wartime) coded aircraft would determine and report status usi only the FSL and BSL columns related to their DOC statement. s with TF (traini) coded aircraft would determine and report status usi only the FSL and TNG columns, and units with CB (test) coded aircraft would determine and report status usi only the FSL and TST columns. s with multiple coded aircraft will ensure status is reported usi the MESL columns appropriate to the individual aircraft assignment code.
