Summary This research effort proposes the continued development of an optimization model called the Capital Investment Planning Aid (CIPA) with a specific tailoring to Naval aircraft. CIPA will prescribe aircraft procurement and retirement schedules over a 30-year planning horizon while adhering to annual budget constraints, industrial base requirements, business rules, and force structure requirements expressed in terms of supporting mission areas. CIPA will consider multiple aircraft types, multiple mission areas, track average aircraft age for each aircraft type, and expected attrition for each aircraft type. As a result of this effort CIPA will become a fully functional decision support system.
