Abstract :
Significant work is ongoing to institute the concept of network interface design for supportability and maintainability in developmental tactical aircraft avionics fiber-optic networks. In this paper we attempt to define the salient avionics life cycle cost factors to meet naval aviation weapons system aircraft operational readiness expectations.
