Abstract:

This research project explores the ARC and AMC collaborative efforts to rapidly prototype, field, and fund KC-135 RTIC and HVAA Gladiator pods. With the need for rapid prototyping and rapid fielding to compete against China's technological wave, this study focuses on the ARC's impact on modernizing the KC-135 with RTIC and pods to complement the ABMS. Through content analysis methodology and NVivo software, interviews from subject-matter-experts and literature review were analyzed for themes and sentiment relating to the ARC, AMC, NGREA, KC-135, RTIC, and HVAA Gladiator pods.
