Institutionalizing Corrosion Prevention and Control in the USAF

The U.S. Air Force will never eliminate corrosion in aerospace systems, but synchronized efforts can help sustain positive trends in conserving maintenance dollars, increasing system availability, and reducing corrosion-related mishaps. The AF Corrosion Control and Prevention Executive established an aggressive goal to reduce corrosion’s effects by 20% by 2025: a 20% reduction in corrosion maintenance costs; a 20% reduction in non-available hours (NAH) due to corrosion repairs; and a 20% reduction in corrosion-related safety mishaps.

Achieving these goals depends on applying the resources necessary to institutionalize a corrosion-conscious mindset within the AF culture. Success will depend on all levels of the corrosion prevention and control enterprise—strategic, operational, tactical, and technical—engaging to institutionalize corrosion prevention and control along four lines of effort: resources; policy; technology; and communication.
