Aviation Sustainment Branch (ASB)

 

Mission

ASB is mindful of future threats through close collaboration with the Cunningham Group, ensuring the ability to maintain and sustain Marine aviation systems as they evolve to meet future threats and support the future force.  ASB sustains and enhances MAGTF Warfighting capabilities.  ASB integrates aviation sustainment to deliver the necessary expeditionary capabilities across the functional areas of aircraft maintenance, aviation supply, avionics, aviation ordnance, and aviation information systems, allowing Marine aviation to thrive at sea and in forward, isolated, austere conditions.  ASB coordinates across the Naval Aviation Enterprise and Marine Corps Forces to develop, manage, and improve aviation sustainment capabilities, plans, and policies in support of the total lifecycle management of new and existing aviation platforms and supporting equipment.  ASB synthesizes and assesses key performance indicators and material readiness trends across these functional areas to drive improvements in material condition, reliability of repairables and increase aircraft readiness.  ASB leverages emerging technologies and concepts to enable modernization of our training systems to ensure our Marines keep pace with the complexity of our aircraft.
