"Ault Report" Study Scope
Ault directed a team of five experts who addressed five basic questions to be addressed by the study:
- Is industry delivering to the Navy a high quality product, designed and built to specifications?
- Are Fleet support organizations delivering a high quality product to the CVA’s (aircraft carriers) and to forward sites ashore?
- Do shipboard and squadron organizations (afloat and ashore) launch an optimally ready combat aircraft-missile system?
- Does the combat aircrew fully understand and exploit the capabilities of the aircraft-missile system? (Corollary question: Is the aircraft-missile system properly designed and configured for the air-to-air mission?)
- Is the air-to-air missile system (aircraft/fire control system/missile) repair and rework program returning a quality product to the Fleet?
