FOREWORD 

The Air National Guard (ANG) stands ready to provide Airmen and

equipment to support the American people during times of domestic 

disasters. As a first step to prepare for effective Homeland response, 

National Guard experts from the 54 states and territories, to include 

Joint Force Headquarters and all 90 Wings, gather together during the 

annual ANG Domestic Capability Priorities (DCP) Conference to 

identify capability gaps and define solutions for the ANG responders. 

National Guard representatives identify, prioritize, and organize 

capabilities according to the Federal Emergency Management Agency 

(FEMA) construct defined by Emergency Support Functions (ESFs). 

The product of the DCP is this book and serves as the foundation for the allocation of the ANG’s 

limited procurement funds. The ANG strives to keep this process transparent and repeatable 

while documenting, analyzing and validating the priorities from the conference. 

ANG Airmen stand ready to respond to both natural and man-made disasters and defend the 

American Homeland while continuing to maintain Air Force training and readiness standards. 

This past year demonstrated ANG readiness by challenging our service members with multiple 

hurricanes, wildfires, mudslides, and national security events taking our Airmen to all corners of 

our borders and beyond. I am grateful to our ANG Airmen and partner agencies across the 

country who participate in the DCP process and help steer ANG resources in the most effective 

direction. The DCP process and resulting products exemplify our steadfast commitment to our 

communities, states, territories, and this Nation.

INTRODUCTION

The 2019 Air National Guard (ANG) Domestic Capability Priorities (DCP) Book documents capability 

priorities identified during the April 2018 ANG DCP Conference in Colorado Springs, Colorado. This 

location was retained to continue enhanced NORTHCOM participation with the ANG. The DCP 

Conference leveraged working groups for 11 National Response Framework Emergency Support Functions 

(ESF). The conference welcomed over 320 military and civilian attendees representing 53 states and 

territories from the ANG wings and state Joint Force Headquarters, other government agencies, civil 

partners, as well as National Guard Bureau (NGB) staff. The objective of the ESF working groups was to 

identify capabilities needed by the ANG to effectively execute the domestic incident response mission, 

classified by urgency of need: Critical (crucial within the next 1 to 3 years), Essential (vital within the next 

3 to 5 years), or Desired (enhances mission success beyond 5 years).

states and FEMA regions where working groups recommended fielding equipment. The book 

identifies nearly $470,000,000 worth of domestic critical capability shortfalls organized into 11 

ESF tabs; each begins with an ESF mission description followed by a summary page of critical, 

essential and desired capabilities identified at the DCP Conference. An information paper 

describes each capability classified as critical. Each information paper captures: Background 

(capability description) and Program Details (quantity of equipment needed, the estimated unit 

costs, and program costs).

Transportation 

Transportation (ESF 1) – ESF 1 

encompasses intermodal transportation, 

aviation and airspace management, 

transportation safety, restoration and 

recovery of transportation infrastructure, 

movement restrictions, and impact 

assessment. To move essential resources 

during a disaster, ANG assistance may be 

required to clear and restore the 

transportation system. The ANG can 

provide temporary alternative transportation 

when infrastructure is damaged, unavailable or overwhelmed. The ANG has many 

transportation resources to support the movement of personnel and materiel, to include heavy 

equipment, medical first responders and patients, bulk and palletized cargo, fire suppression 

systems, water, petroleum, oil, lubricants, and ground transportation across a multitude of 

damaged surfaces.

HEAVY MOBILE EQUIPMENT MAINTENANCE TRUCK 

1. Background. The ANG requires one-ton, four-wheel drive, crew cab contact trucks in order 

to perform mobile maintenance support of heavy equipment, emergency vehicles, and large 

trucks. During domestic response scenarios, quickly and effectively addressing heavy equipment 

and vehicle breakdown is difficult without specialized systems that can access remote areas in 

order to make significant repairs on-site. All 90 ANG wings require a service body truck 

equipped with a mobile crane, welder, air compressor, and hand tool kits.

DEPLOYABLE AVIATION REFEULING POINT 

1. Background. The ANG requires a system capable of off-loading fuel from mobility aircraft 

into collapsible tanks for multi-point aircraft/vehicle refueling operations. This single-point 

defueling system must be compatible with C-17, C-130H/J, and KC-135 aircraft. This system 

can extend the reach of aviation and ground transportation assets into isolated areas experiencing 

critical infrastructure failure during the first 72 hours following a natural or man-made disaster. 

One deployable aviation refueling point system is requested for each of the 44 C-17, C-130H/J, 

and KC-135 wings.

Communications 

Communications (ESF 2) – Communication enablers are comprised of a full spectrum of 

interoperable capabilities to include voice, data, cellular, radio, and video capabilities over 

sophisticated networks establishing shared situational awareness among federal, state, and local 

agencies in response to disaster recovery efforts. 

These capabilities include bridging critical 

communications, facilitating coordination of 

emergency response operations, and acting as a 

conduit between responding federal, state, and 

local agencies. The communications functions 

encompass close coordination with the commercial 

information technology industry, reestablishment, 

and sustainment of communications. Also 

included in communications is the defense and 

oversight of information technology resources, 

incident management, and response operations 

centers. 

The ANG has 62% of the AF communications 

capability. Field representatives from the ANG 

addressed operational shortfalls and proposed 

updated communications capabilities to improve 

the ANG’s ability to respond quickly and function 

efficiently during emergency operations in support 

of civil authorities, federal, and state partners. The 

capabilities identified improve the security of 

communications devices and networks, support 

cyber defense and mitigation activities, and 

increase interoperability among responders 

while reducing response times.

JOINT INCIDENT SITE COMMUNICATIONS CAPABILITY INCIDENT SITE DATA 

SERVICE EXTENSION 

1. Background. The ANG requires a multipoint antenna system to allow the Joint Incident Site 

Communications Capability (JISCC) to extend core data and voice services to responders in a 

Defense Support of Civil Authorities (DSCA) or all-hazards response event. During operations, 

incident commanders often request that JISCC teams project communications services to 

multiple military and civilian entities. Current solutions only allow JISCC to extend services to a 

single remote site. An incident site communications extension system allows a JISCC terminal 

to extend data and voice services to multiple locations simultaneously and independently. A 

multipoint antenna allows JISCC teams to extend and expand services to multiple response 

entities that operate in hazardous environments while remaining outside of the incident site. 

Additionally, the system can be configured as a repeater to project services to remote locations 

not normally accessible to satellite or cellular based systems. Each of the ANG’s 41 JISCC 

systems requires a multipoint antenna upgrade. 

2. Program Details.

JOINT INCIDENT SITE COMMUNICATIONS CAPABILITY TACTICAL MOBILITY

MODERNIZATION 

1. Background. ANG Joint Incident Site Communications Capability (JISCC) units require a 

dedicated trailer and prime mover package in order to rapidly deploy communications support 

equipment using tactical airlift and road convoy transport. Since fielding in 2013, the JISCC 

Block III footprint has continued to expand due to continued use for Defense Support of Civil 

Authorities (DSCA) operations and expanding disaster relief support requirements. As a result, 

the JISCC Block III and support equipment no longer fit in the primary trailer and cannot be 

transported on a single C-130. Additionally, JISCC operators compete for prime movers at ANG 

wings. A dedicated prime mover would ensure that a JISCC can be repositioned quickly when 

called upon during a crisis. A dedicated support trailer and two dedicated prime movers are 

required for each of the ANG’s 41 JISCC units. 

2. Program Details. 

Quantity Unit Cost Program Cost 

41 JISCC Support Trailer (3080) $49,000 $2,009,000

Total $7,339,000 
Communications 

13 

RAPID DEPLOYABLE COMMUNICATIONS SOLUTION 

1. Background. ANG Communications units require a rapidly-deployable communications kit 

with organic power generation that provides basic cellular and radio connectivity in a localized 

area during disaster response operations. This capability fills a communications gap with 

satellite voice, cellular, data and video streaming when existing the communications 

infrastructure has been disabled. The kit needs to be lightweight (approximately 90 pounds total) 

and have a set up time under 15 minutes with no tools. The system needs to combine the use of 

balanced and prioritized aggregated cellular and satellite bandwidth. The system must include an 

on-board dual band (2.4 gigahertz (Ghz) and 5.8Ghz) 802.11 a/b/g/n/ac WiFi network. Cellular 

network capability is needed to support users with Verizon, Sprint, AT&T and T-Mobile and be 

First Responder Network Authority (FirstNet) Band 14 capable. In order to operate 

independently in remote locations, small generators should accompany each communications kit. 

The generators need to be man-portable, weighing no more than 47 pounds (dry weight), 

incorporate an inverter for computers and sensitive equipment, and be capable of a 120 volt, 

2200 watt maximum (18 amperes) output. Each of the 15 Incident Awareness and Assessment/ 

Unclassified Processing, Analysis, and Dissemination (IAA/UPAD) Communications units 

requires two deployable communications kits and associated generators. The five remote ANG 

Communications units require one kit and generator per location. 

2. Program Details. 

Quantity Unit Cost Program Cost 

35 Rapid Deployable Communications Kits (3080) $55,000 $1,925,000 

35 Generators (3080) $1,000 $35,000 

Total $1,960,000 
Communications 

14 

MULTIBAND CAPABLE RADIOS 

1. Background. ANG Communications units equipped with the Joint Incident Site 

Communications Capability (JISCC) system require multiband portable land mobile radios 

(LMR) to ensure continued communications with external agencies. Current JISCC radios are 

reaching end-of-life and cannot be upgraded to meet future P25 requirements, a suite of 

standards for digital mobile radio communications. This radio upgrade will also allow the Very 

High Frequency (VHF), Ultra High Frequency (UHF), and 700/800 megahertz commercial radio 

bands be embedded on one radio instead of requiring multiple radios operating in different 

bands. The radio upgrade will also have Long Term Evolution (LTE) capability, meeting the 

First Responder Network Authority (FirstNet) requirement, in addition to meeting all 

Department of Homeland Security frequency standards. The ANG requires six portable radios 

for each of its 41 JISCC Block III units.

DOMESTIC CYBER MISSION SYSTEM 

1. Background. ANG Cyberspace Operations (CO) units and Mission Defense Teams (MDT) 

require the Domestic Cyber Mission System (DCMS) in order to provide domestic cyber support 

for state missions. The DCMS is a cost-effective solution that provides increased operational 

capability to ensure protection of state, tribal, and local systems. Presidential Policy Directive 

41, as well as the National Guard Cyber Strategic Plan and Strategy, outline the involvement of 

the National Guard in support of domestic cyber operations. The DCMS is a mobile system that 

can be scaled to support any state-directed cyber mission. The system provides the ability to 

conduct network enumeration, forensic assessments, vulnerability assessments, and penetration 

testing. It provides a rapidly-deployable defense and networked storage system to ensure proper 

backups of critical systems can be maintained. Up to 24 Cyber Mission Systems (CMS) 

provided laptops can interconnect with state systems through a networked CMS switch. This 

connectivity allows members to focus on mission objectives while operating within a networked 

environment. The ruggedized DCMS is transportable in a hardened case that can be palletized or 

placed on a commercial aircraft as checked baggage. One DCMS system is required for all 90 

wings.

Public Works and Engineering 

Public Works and Engineering (ESF 3) – The 

United States Army Corps of Engineers is the 

primary agency for providing the public works 

and engineering emergency support function 

technical assistance, engineering, and 

construction management resources during 

response activities. ESF 3 provides road 

clearing, airfield recovery, electrical power 

generation and distribution, emergency repair of 

water treatment facilities (potable water, ice, 

and wastewater). Contracting support is provided for construction management, real estate use, 

life-saving and life-sustaining actions, damage mitigation, expedient bridging, and Explosive 

Ordnance Disposal (EOD) following a major disaster.

In a major disaster or emergency response, 

operations may be beyond state and local 

response capabilities. Homes, public 

buildings, bridges, and other facilities may 

have to be reinforced or demolished to 

ensure safety. Public utilities may be 

partially or fully inoperable. A major 

disaster may affect the lives of many state 

and local response personnel and their 

facilities, preventing them from performing 

their prescribed emergency response duties. Similarly, emergency response equipment in the 

immediate disaster area may be damaged or inaccessible; therefore, sufficient resources may not 

be available to state and local agencies to meet emergency response requirements. Federal 

assistance may be required to identify and deploy resources from outside the affected area to 

ensure a timely, coordinated, and effective response.

BASE WATER STORAGE AND DISPERSAL 

1. Background. The ANG requires potable water containers for storage and distribution during 

emergency events. Virtually every domestic operation requires access to potable water on-site. 

Water storage equipment provides an easily transportable, collapsible container system holding 

at least 320 gallons of potable water. Disposable liners within the containers collapse as water is 

used, ensuring water exiting the container is of the same quality as the water source. Each ANG 

wing requires four collapsible containers and stands, one trailer, and 200 liners.

DEBRIS CLEARANCE SAFETY ENHANCEMENT 

1. Background. ANG requires additional safety equipment to better enable existing debris 

clearance sets. Lessons learned from recent natural disasters identified the need for additional 

items to include battery-powered Light Emitting Diode (LED) safety flares, more robust first-aid 

kits, electrical safety items, smaller chainsaws, pole saws, LED flood lights, and other 

miscellaneous items. LED safety flares will improve safety during night and low-visibility 

operations. Twelve-inch chainsaws enable use in tighter work spaces where the 24-inch saws 

become bulky, cumbersome, and potentially create an unsafe condition. Pole saws will aid in 

situations where obstructions (tree limbs, etc.) exist but are out of reach using existing saws. 

High-voltage detectors will help keep our airmen safe during work near commercial power lines. 

Current first-aid kits are not sufficient to handle work crew sizes that may be present during a 

debris clearance event. Extendible LED tripod lights and stands are needed for nighttime 

operations. The LED lights are brighter, last longer, and require less power than the current 

halogen lights. Debris clearance safety enhancement packages are required for each of the 83 

ANG installations with debris clearance sets.

POTABLE WATER PRODUCTION EQUIPMENT 

1. Background. ANG requires potable water production equipment to support regional disaster 

relief operations. Virtually every major domestic disaster requires large quantities of drinkable 

water. A Reverse Osmosis Water Purification Unit (ROWPU) provides an expedient water 

purification and desalination processing capability during these times of crisis. The ROWPU can 

produce 1,500 gallons of potable water per hour for first responders and the civilian population. 

In addition to the ROWPU, each storage equipment kit will include two water storage bladders, a 

light cart, a shelter tent, and a 45-foot trailer to haul the equipment. Each of the ten Federal 

Emergency Management Agency (FEMA) regions needs one additional ROWPU kit, plus one 

kit each for Alaska, Hawaii, and Puerto Rico.

PRIME POWER MODERNIZATION 

1. Background. ANG requires modernized transportable power generation capabilities. Almost 

every major domestic disaster requires additional sources of power along with technical 

assistance for power generation and distribution. Prime power teams provide emergency power 

to military and civilian facilities including clinics, nursing homes, police stations, command 

centers, and joint reception, staging, onward movement, and integration sites during disaster 

relief operations. Employment of both prime power teams during the 2017 hurricane season 

demonstrated the need for a reconfiguration of the equipment set. Existing generator sets have a 

limited ability to support the variety of possible employment scenarios. The 30 kilowatt (kW) 

and 60 kW generators cannot supply sufficient power to structures unless connected in parallel, 

which is cost-prohibitive using the currently fielded assets. The 100 kW generators have 

sufficient capacity, but also lack the ability to configure in parallel. All existing prime power 

generators need to be replaced with trailer-mounted air-transportable 100 kW and 230 kW 

parallel-capable generator sets, creating a total output capacity of 1,460 kW per team. 

Additionally, each generator must be attached to its own trailer that is ground and airlift-certified 

to increase portability since fork lift assets may not be available. Each of the two ANG prime 

power teams, the 118th Civil Engineering Squadron and 150th Civil Engineering Flight, require 

the portable power generation package upgrade.

Firefighting 

Firefighting (ESF 4) – Firefighting capabilities include detecting and suppressing wildland, 

rural, and urban fires from the ground and air, 

while managing and coordinating those 

firefighting efforts. The management of a large 

firefighting operation often involves thousands of 

people and equipment from many agencies and 

jurisdictions. A major disaster may impose 

extraordinary demands and exceed local 

firefighting capabilities. 

ANG Fire and Emergency Services (FES) 

personnel can augment local firefighting resources 

because ANG firefighters maintain the same certifications as their civilian counterparts. The 

firefighting team consists of managers, incident commanders, and firefighters. In addition to 

traditional fire and rescue capabilities, ANG 

firefighters provide hazardous materials response 

to include Chemical, Biological, Radiological, 

Nuclear, and Explosives (CBRNE) events. The 

ANG firefighting enterprise consists of 62 FES 

units, three C-130 and three HH-60 units for 

airborne firefighting. 

Proper personnel protective equipment (PPE), 

tools, and training are needed for each firefighting 

specialty in order to reduce the inherent risks of 

fighting fires.

PERSONAL PROTECTIVE EQUIPMENT CLEANING CAPABILITY 

1. Background. The ANG requires upgraded Personal Protective Equipment (PPE) cleaning 

and testing kits for its Fire and Emergency Services (FES) units. An updated extractor (washer), 

dryer, and water penetrator tester will provide FES units the ability to conduct proper postemergency cleaning of PPE. Routine contact with chemicals, fuel, and the products of 

combustion require decontamination which can take weeks without in-house capability. With 

the addition of the water penetrator tester, all FES units will have the capability to conduct inhouse annual advanced cleaning in accordance with National Fire Protection Association 

(NFPA) 1851, Standard on Selection, Care, and Maintenance of Protective Ensembles for 

Structural Fire Fighting and Proximity Fire Fighting. Currently, FES units utilize a one million 

dollar, 3-year contract to conduct advanced inspections for one set of gear per ANG Firefighter. 

An in-house upgraded cleaning and testing kit can be used for structural, wildland, and rescue 

PPE decontamination and annual advanced cleaning, eliminating the requirement for contract 

cleaning. Each of the ANG’s 62 FES units requires one cleaning and testing kit, as well as 

equipment training for three personnel.

MAFFS TANKER BASE FIXED PITS 

1. Background. ANG Mobile Aircraft Fire Fighting System (MAFFS) tanker bases require a 

fixed fire retardant storage tank to enhance airborne firefighting capabilities. The installation of 

a 100,000 gallon tank and associated pump equipment for a fixed pit adjacent to the MAFFS pits 

will reduce the response time from 24 hours to 3 hours, and promote efficient support to civil 

agencies in this critical Defense Support of Civil Authorities (DSCA) mission. This upgrade will 

enable the rapid projection of military and civilian aerial firefighting resources in the infancy of a 

wildland fire. A 100,000 gallon tank, preloaded with retardant, could support recurring loads of 

at least 3,000 gallons per sortie. With this increased capability, each MAFFS base could pursue 

a Type 1 air tanker base certification, in accordance with the National Wildfire Coordinating 

Group standards, potentially reaching "Full Activation" tanker base status, rather than "hub" or 

"reload" base. All three ANG MAFFS units require a fixed fire retardant storage tank.

STRUCTURAL FIREFIGHTING PERSONAL PROTECTIVE EQUIPMENT 

1. Background. ANG Fire and Emergency Services (FES) units require a second set of 

structural Personal Protective Equipment (PPE) to maintain a 100% firefighter response 

capability. Per National Fire Protection Association (NFPA) 1851, Standard on Selection, Care, 

and Maintenance of Protective Ensembles for Structural Fire Fighting and Proximity Fire 

Fighting, firefighting protective equipment must be cleaned and decontaminated every time there 

is contact with a hazardous material or bodily fluid. The cleaning, decontamination, and drying 

process can take several hours to several days, depending upon the severity of soiling and 

contamination. While this gear is out of service, the capability to continue to respond to 

emergencies with the appropriate protective ensemble is still required. A second set of structural 

PPE will provide firefighters the ability to respond to an emergency while the primary set is 

being repaired or cleaned. The ensemble will include pants, coats, boots, gloves, and hood. 

Each of the ANG’s 62 FES units requires one set of PPE per assigned firefighter.

engine. ANG FES flights are provided fire apparatus according to Allowance Standard Code 

(ASC) 010, which is based on the assigned aircraft at a given location. All ANG FES flights 

require to be equipped with two P-22 fire engines, but currently only have one. Structural 

firefighting capability on ANG installations is dramatically reduced when the single P-22 fire 

engine is out of service. Additionally, a second P-22 will provide force projection capacity for 

off-base missions into the local community during times of disaster, while maintaining missionessential levels of service at ANG bases. One additional P-22 fire engine is required at each of 

the ANG’s 62 FES units.

AIRCRAFT AND STRUCTURAL LIVE-FIRE TRAINING EQUIPMENT 

1. Background. The ANG requires modernized portable and fixed live-fire training equipment 

to support Fire and Emergency Services (FES) unit annual training needs. ANG FES personnel 

are required to conduct annual aircraft and structural live-fire training. The vast majority of 

ANG FES flights do not possess this capability on-site, and must travel to accomplish their 

annual certifications. ANG Regional Training Sites (RTS) and Combat Readiness Training 

Centers (CRTC) possess live-fire training assets, but they are routinely out of service and are 

increasingly obsolete. Mobile live-fire trainers located in each Federal Emergency Management 

Agency (FEMA) region would be shared between all ANG FES units, allowing for flexible 

training options and the ability to conduct training with assigned firefighting resources at the 

home station. The ANG requires a mobile aircraft and structural burn training system in each of 

the ten FEMA regions, as well as aircraft and structural live-fire training system modernization 

at all five ANG-operated RTS.

MOBILE EMERGENCY OPERATIONS CENTER MODERNIZATION 

1. Background. ANG Emergency Management units require mobile Command and Control 

(C2) capabilities to support federal and state disaster response mission sets. The ANG is 

partially equipped with Mobile Emergency Operations Centers (MEOCs) that are nearing their 

end-of-life and suffer from interoperability issues. Modern trailered MEOCs provide mobile C2 

capable of broad interoperability among first-responders for on-scene incident management and 

long-term recovery operations. MEOCs are distributed regionally and can be mobilized within 

24 hours of notification. Modernized ANG MEOCs should provide Defense Information System 

Agency (DISA) compliant full-spectrum voice, data, full motion video, and image assessment 

capabilities. Modern MEOCs should be designed to meet National Incident Management 

System (NIMS) requirements, United States Northern Command communications guidelines, 

and C-17 transportability requirements. The ANG requires 25 regionally-based MEOC systems, 

and of the 25, six lack a dedicated prime mover vehicle to ensure rapid mobility.

collaboration on and off ANG installations. This web-based solution must be hosted on a 

Department of Defense-approved GovCloud server and allow responders at all levels and from 

multiple units to input and share incident data with each other using any internet-connected 

device. This solution must meet the requirements of AFI 10-2501, Air Force Emergency 

Management Program Planning and Operations, Table A.2.1., Item 5. The solution must 

include collaboration tools to support response actions at every level to include: first responders, 

incident command, Mobile Emergency Operations Centers, command and control nodes, 

information awareness and assessment nodes, Wing Emergency Operation Centers, Joint Force 

Headquarters, ANG Crisis Action Team, and state/local emergency management. The cloudbased COP must integrate Global Positioning System (GPS) data from portable locators to 

track/locate personnel and assets, allowing users to configure tracking across the platform. The 

platform must enable additional data integration from sensors and software platforms. The 

solution must facilitate migration of existing COP software datasets. The ANG requires a single

1. Background. The ANG requires modern commercial open-architecture networks, cybersecurity equipment, a Host Based Security System (HBSS), and enterprise security hardware to 

support Domestic Operations (DOMOPS) requirements. GUARDNET and AFNET connections 

provide insufficient bandwidth for participation in DOMOPS Unclassified Process, Assess and 

Disseminate (UPAD) operations. This capability is necessary to manage, analyze, and 

disseminate large volumes of video, voice, and data in support of UPAD sites. These sites 

require a minimum of 100 megabit per second commercial internet connections to permit timely 

analysis of disasters and dissemination of information. Modernized UPAD capability will allow 

active communications with the DOMOPS Awareness and Assessment Response Tool 

(DAART). Current UPAD sites requiring this capability are located at the 15 Distributed 

Common Ground Station (DCGS) throughout the ANG enterprise. Each of the 15 UPAD sites 

requires commercial internet access, an additional three workstations, servers, and one site kit

Services 

Mass Care, Emergency Assistance, Temporary 

Housing, & Human Services (ESF 6) – Mass 

care response, during a disaster, includes the 

delivery of mass shelter, feeding, and first aid to 

disaster survivors, fatality management, religious 

support to responders, and systems to distribute 

emergency relief supplies to disaster survivors. 

Disaster survivor check-in and status reporting 

systems are used to coordinate rescuers, report on 

victim status, and assist families to reunite. 

 

The ANG provided key services in past mass care events, including three catastrophic storms 

during the 2017/18 hurricane season. During these events, thousands of soldiers and airmen 

were called upon to provide emergency 

assistance and temporary housing. 

Additionally, a severe wildfire season in 

California contributed to mudslides in early 

2018, demonstrating how ANG mass care 

resources can mobilize to assist federal, state, 

and local authorities. 

The ANG needs additional materials, processes, 

and training to better reach the people and areas 

requiring assistance, provide essential services 

once on the scene, and achieve a more effective 

response to a mass care situation.

RAPID DEPLOYMENT SHELTERS 

1. Background. The Expeditionary Medical Support (EMEDS) Consequence Management 

(CM) teams need rapid deployment medical tents. EMEDS ability to respond in a timely manner 

to provide medical care is hindered by the setup time of the medical tents. Each tent takes an 

average of 25 minutes and a minimum of 8-10 personnel to erect. Rapid deployment tents take 

under 5 minutes to erect by two personnel. The time savings facilitates decreased response times 

and availability of emergency medical care during mass casualty incidents. The new rapid 

deployment medical tents need to meet the following requirements: designed from the ground 

up to network together through a simple connection process; not require tools, ladders or 

equipment to deploy; the interior frame should allow support bars capable of holding up to 50 

pounds; have rigid double doors to provide a large entry way with a ramp to move gurneys and 

large equipment; roof cap vents to reduce condensation; flame retardant vinyl that is resistant to 

ultraviolet light, mildew, and abrasion; a Heating, Ventilation, and Air Conditioning (HVAC) 

system; Light Emitting Diode (LED) lighting; and Ground Fault Circuit Interrupter (GFCI)

purification kits, and other basic support items. Time delays encountered during response to 

Hurricane Maria showed the need to have DRBSs prepositioned in non-contiguous states and 

territories so forces can quickly respond to disasters and allow airlift to be prioritized to move 

responders and commodities. Prepositioning DRBSs allow for a rapid and efficient response by 

allowing the impacted states/territories to establish staging areas and be able to receive 

responders within the first 36 hours of a disaster. ANG requires one additional DRBS for 

Alaska, Guam, Hawaii, and Puerto Rico/Virgin Islands to meet this requirement.

MODULAR AIRCRAFT LOADING RAMPS 

1. Background. The ANG needs modular aircraft loading ramps. The ANG currently uses 

pre-cut wood shoring to meet the Air Transportability Test Loading Activity (ATTLA) 

requirements for loading specialized equipment. Often, the wood shoring requires several 

aircraft pallets for air transport along with the specialized cargo and adds several thousand 

pounds of weight. Modular aircraft loading ramps will significantly reduce the number of 

pallets required and weight of the shoring. Each ANG wing requires eight sets of modular 

aircraft loading ramps.

WEIGH-IN-MOTION SCALES 

1. Background. ANG units require weigh-in-motion scales to increase cargo throughput by 

reducing the amount of personnel and time required to process pallets. ANG units are required 

to accomplish cargo deployment functions for all overseas deployments and domestic operations. 

During the joint inspection process, cargo is weighed and measured manually using individual 

wheel scales that require repositioning of scales for each vehicle axle or cargo pallet. The 

process of weighing, measuring, marking, and calculating the center of balance requires 4-6 

personnel and takes approximately 20 minutes per piece of cargo. Weigh-in-motion scales use 

lasers to precisely measure cargo dimensional data during in-motion weighing which will reduce 

the number of personnel and total time required to perform the joint inspection by 50 percent. 

ANG requires two weigh-in-motion scales for each of its nine ANG contingency response units.

MOBILE LOADING DOCK AND TRAILER RAMPS 

1. Background. ANG requires mobile loading docks and trailer ramps to enable cargo transfer 

operations in a variety of configurations and geographic locations to support contingency 

operations. Mobile loading docks and ramps allow for the transfer of equipment, supplies, and 

vehicles from commercial transport assets without the need for permanent, stationary loading 

docks. They also allow Point of Distribution missions for the disbursal of supplies and 

equipment to disaster-stricken areas. Mobile loading docks capable of supporting up to 100,000 

pounds, with manual height adjustment from 32 to 56 inches, better equips ANG units to support 

domestic incidents. Both loading docks and trailer ramps should be of adequate width to 

accommodate a variety of typical cargo and equipment loads. During domestic operations, these 

mobile loading docks and ramps can be used to transfer trailers and vehicles ranging in size from 

commercial semi-trailers to Light Medium Tactical Vehicles. In addition to supporting the 

ANG’s domestic mission, mobile loading docks and trailer ramps are capable of supporting 

overseas deployments. Each of the 90 ANG wings requires one mobile loading dock and one 

mobile trailer ramp.

25,000 POUND HIGH-REACH AIRCRAFT LOADER 

1. Background. The ANG requires modern 25,000 pound high-reach loaders (K-loaders) 

that meet or exceed current Air Force loading equipment standards in order to quickly load 

heavy cargo and equipment onto wide-body aircraft to support domestic response and 

Combatant Command mobility operations. Modern K-loaders are disbursed throughout the 

ANG, mainly across 44 heavy lift aircraft wings (C-130, C-17, KC-135). However, eight 

ANG units are still equipped with outdated K-loaders approaching the end of their useful 

design life. These K-loaders present maintenance challenges due to frequent malfunctions 

and growing parts obsolescence, costing each unit approximately $25,000 per year for 

upkeep. These outdated K-loaders prevent ANG airmen from training on the same 

equipment they are expected to operate during deployed contingency operations. Replacing 

these eight aging assets will greatly enhance the ANG’s ability to rapidly support state 

missions during domestic response operations as well as Combatant Command taskings.

transfer of fuel from a KC-135 to virtually any fuel truck. This fuel off-load equipment 

significantly increases the rate of fuel transfer and the variety of fuel trucks compatible with the 

off-loading operation. Additionally, this equipment allows staged or mobile refueling operations 

to any military or commercial vehicle during a domestic response by utilizing a simple 

modification of existing fuel off-load equipment. ANG requires two sets of KC-135 fuel offload 

hoses and nozzles for each of its 18 KC-135 wings.

Public Health and Medical 

Services 

Public Health/Medical Care (ESF 8) – Public 

health and medical services include emergency 

medical management of health service resources, 

such as preventive and curative health measures, 

triage of injured or sick, evacuation of the injured or 

sick, fatality management, blood management, 

medical supply, equipment, stress control, medical, 

dental, veterinary, laboratory, optometric, nutrition 

therapy, bioenvironmental health, and medical 

intelligence services. These services also include 

civilian emergency medical management in 

coordination with religious support teams. Public 

health and medical services support the public 

health system in the distribution and administration 

of vaccines and antidotes, implementation of state emergency medical response plans, protection 

of critical force health, and delivery of mortuary support. 

ANG medical services may be called to support medical emergencies independently or 

cooperatively depending on the emergency. These services continue to develop cooperative 

efforts of medical response and support with local emergency medical management 

organizations at the state, county, and city levels. 

Over the last several years, the 

ANG has developed a robust 

Chemical, Biological, Radiation, 

Nuclear, and Explosives 

(CBRNE) response plan that 

includes Civil Support Teams 

(CST), Homeland Response 

Forces (HRF), and CBRNE 

Enhanced Response Force 

Packages (CERFP). These 

emergency responseforces are 

equipped and trained to respond 

to hazards, to include specialized skills needed at CBRNE-type events.

PATIENT MOVEMENT ITEM KITS 

1. Background. The ANG needs critical care equipment to safely move patients. During mass 

civilian evacuations, the ANG is often tasked with supporting the air transport of critically ill 

patients located in hospitals in the affected area. A Patient Movement Item (PMI) kit, consisting 

of a ventilator, vital signs monitor, intravenous (IV) infusion pump, and a suction pump will 

significantly improve a patient’s chances of survival during transport. Based on historical 

precedent and recent weather-related disaster relief efforts, the ANG requires enough critical 

care equipment to move up to 560 patients in 24 hours. It is expected that 20% of these 560 

patients or 112 of the patients treated will require critical care equipment.

MEDICAL RAPID RESPONSE EQUIPMENT 

1. Background. ANG Medical Groups need a standardized general purpose first responder kit 

to render first aid in mass casualty scenarios. This capability is critical for triage, stabilization, 

and transportation of victims to a higher level of care. The kit needs to be lightweight, easily 

stored, and easily transported. A folding litter that is easily carried but can transport a nonambulatory patient is vital. The ideal mass casualty treatment pack needs to have at least a 60-

month shelf life and be able to treat a minimum of 50 patients. A treatment pack also needs to 

incorporate the same supplies as available in the self-aid buddy care kit. The ANG needs two 

Medical Rapid Response kits for each of its 89 Medical Groups.

OXYGEN GENERATION SYSTEM 

1. Background. The ANG requires a lightweight, self-contained, deployable oxygen generation 

system capable of producing medical-grade, 93% oxygen from ambient air at the point of use. 

The availability of medical oxygen in a mass casualty incident is a prime factor in saving the 

lives of critical patients. The ANG’s current oxygen distribution system is no longer supported 

by the manufacturer and replacement parts are no longer available. In addition, the use of highpressure oxygen cylinders creates an unacceptable logistical burden associated with 

transportation, refill, and storage. A self-contained oxygen generation system eliminates 

resupply requirements. Each of the ANG’s 27 Homeland Response Force / Chemical, 

Biological, Radiological, Nuclear, and Explosives (CBRNE) Enhanced Response Force Package 

(CERFP) medical elements needs an oxygen generation system.

PATIENT TRACKING/TREATMENT SYSTEM 

1. Background. The ANG needs a portable patient, casualty, and fatality accountability system 

to provide timely and accurate information on the location, movement, status, and identity of 

equipment, supplies, casualties, human remains, and the deceased. In the event of a mass 

casualty incident, patient treatment at the site prior to transportation is documented on paper tags 

(e.g. triage tag), which are prone to data entry error and can be lost at the expense of patient care. 

The patient tracking/treatment system must document medical care, print reports, and provide an 

intuitive user interface that requires minimal training. The system needs to be able to receive 

information autonomously through patient monitors to avoid errors made by manual entry. The 

system must share information via Health Level Seven (HL7) compatible files to external 

systems such as a Joint Patient Assessment and Tracking System or other hospital-based 

electronic medical records. One accountability system is requested for each of the ANG’s 27 

Homeland Response Force (HRF)/Chemical, Biological, Radiological, Nuclear, and high-yield 

Explosives (CBRNE) Enhanced Response Force Package (CERFP) Medical Elements and 27 

Fatality Search and Recovery Teams (FSRT).

AIRWAY MANAGEMENT CRITICAL CARE SYSTEM 

1. Background. ANG Homeland Response Force (HRF)/Chemical, Biological, Radiological, 

Nuclear, and Explosives (CBRNE) Enhanced Response Force Package (CERFP) medical 

elements and Guardian Angel (GA) search and rescue units do not have the airway management 

equipment essential for treatment of critically ill patients. Current medical standards of care for 

airway management include use of video laryngoscopy as a primary intubation technique or as 

an airway rescue technique. Ventilators must be: portable; easy to use; include an internal 

compressor; have adapters for both adult and pediatric circuits; extended battery power; digital 

airway pressure displays; sensitive alarm system; airway pressure limiting; fittings for High 

Efficiency Particulate Air (HEPA)/Biological/Chemical filters; automatic altitude 

compensation; and be airworthy. Monitors must be small and lightweight, and include: a 2-lead 

electrocardiogram measurement and interpretation system; ability to monitor oxygen and 

carbon dioxide levels, and blood pressure; automatic and manual defibrillation; external cardiac 

pacing; an integrated information management system that can send patient information 

remotely; and be airworthy. Based on their various missions, ANG HRF, CERFP, and GA 

units need the quantities of video laryngoscopes, defibrillators, and ventilators as defined in the 

table below.

Search and Rescue 

Search and Rescue (ESF 9) – The ANG performs search 

and rescue utilizing 62 Urban Search and Rescue (USAR) 

teams distributed across all 10 Federal Emergency 

Management Agency regions. All teams are organized 

and trained to rapidly deploy and provide an initial search 

and rescue capability within hours of an incident or 

natural disaster. These teams provide Land Search and 

Rescue (SAR), Maritime/Coastal/Waterborne SAR, and 

structual collapse USAR. SAR services include distress 

monitoring, incident communications, locating distressed 

personnel, coordination, and execution of rescue 

operations including extrication and/or evacuation, along 

with providing medical asistance and civilian services. 

Recent natural disasters ANG units responded to include, 

but are not limited to, hurricanes, earthquakes, civil 

unrest, chemical spills, and forest fires. 

Three ANG Rescue Wings perform long-range, over-water rescue operations in the East Pacific, 

West Atlantic, and Gulf Coast regions. Additionally, the ANG also performs search and rescue 

operations in Alaska and, as the area becomes more accessible, the remote Arctic regions of 

North America.

PERSONAL PROTECTIVE EQUIPMENT FOR URBAN SEARCH AND RESCUE 

1. Background. The ANG Urban Search and Rescue (USAR) and wildland teams require the 

correct clothing, hydration systems, and shelters to adequately perform their duties. USAR 

teams need Personal Protective Equipment (PPE) appropriate for the harsh conditions 

encountered during operations. PPE should include high-visibility clothing; water, bio-hazard, 

chemical, and abrasion-resistant clothing and footwear; portable decontamination equipment; 

and safety pads. Wildland fire rescue teams work in hot and stressful conditions, which 

necessitates constant hydration via a suspension system with a hydration pack. Additionally, 

individual wildland shelter kits are needed for wildland team members to provide protection 

from the elements during overnight operations. The 15 members on each of the ANG’s 62 Fire 

and Emergency Services and USAR teams require the appropriate PPE. Additionally, these 

members, along with the 150 personnel in the 141st Air Refueling Wing and 194th Wing

OPEN ARCHITECTURE MODULAR MISSION POD AND COMPONENTS 

1. Background. The ANG requires an integrated airborne and land-based communications 

solution for the units supporting the Search and Rescue (SAR) mission. ANG assets lack the 

ability to bring civilian SAR counterparts into established military mesh networks in locations 

with limited to no established connectivity. For Tactical Air Control Parties and Guardian 

Angels (at both Guardian Angel (GA) squadrons and Special Tactics (ST) squadrons), a 

commercial ad-hoc mesh network would enable military personnel to connect, interact, track, 

and bring interoperable life-saving communication technology to individual entities involved in 

frontline rescue efforts. An open architecture airborne mission system will give ANG aircraft 

the ability to quickly reconfigure the pod with the components necessary to achieve the desired 

effect. These capabilities include: an ad-hoc overhead mobile network; full motion video; Very 

High Frequency (VHF) analog bridging; wide area multi-spectral imaging; wide area motion 

imaging; WiFi and cellular communications gateway; Link-16/Situation Awareness Data Link 

(SADL) gateway; synthetic aperture radar; aerial precision geolocation; and military-to-civilian 

cross-banding. Three pods for each of the ten Federal Emergency Management Agency regions 

are essential to provide adequate coverage for the United States. Two commercial ad-hoc 

network nodes and ten commercial network tablets are required for each of the 16 Air Support 

Operations Squadrons, three GA units, and two ST units.

SEARCH AND RESCUE SEARCHLIGHT AND LOUDSPEAKER SYSTEM 

1. Background. ANG Search and Rescue (SAR) HH-60G helicopters need searchlight and

loudspeaker systems to enable aircrews to locate and communicate with survivors on the ground 

during day and night operations. Existing communication and search systems on the ANG 

HH-60Gs were designed to be covert, limiting aircraft exposure by decreasing light and sound 

while conducting operations in combat. Individual HH-60G aircrew members do not have the 

ability to effectively search at night with the current airframe-mounted searchlight because it 

lacks the agility and control authority to keep up with the aircrews' visual scanning ability. 

Portable search lights and power packs will provide the HH-60G aircrews an increased search 

capability at night. Furthermore, a hailing device and power pack will give aircrews an effective 

tool to communicate with people on the ground and allow aircrew greater efficiency in search 

and rescue operations. ANG requires two portable search lights, two power packs, and one 

hailing device with power pack, for each of the ANG’s 18 HH-60G aircraft.

enable the rapid survey and analysis of HAZMAT/CBRNE sites while mitigating risk and 

minimizing the exposure of first responders. The robot should be capable of attaching existing 

detectors and sensors, and have the ability to transmit data to first responders. ANG requires one 

robot for each of its 63 4F9WM Unit Type Code (UTC)-tasked units.

HAZARDOUS MATERIALS PERSONAL PROTECTIVE EQUIPMENT 

MODERNIZATION 

1. Background. ANG Fire and Emergency Services (FES) Flights need modernized Hazardous 

Materials (HAZMAT) Personal Protective Equipment (PPE). Their current equipment is 

reaching the manufacturers’ recommended shelf life and cannot be used after expiration, 

preventing safe and effective HAZMAT response. Encapsulating Level A (highest level of 

protection) and Level B (reduced level) suits provide vital lifesaving detection and mitigation 

capabilities. HAZMAT responder safety and effectiveness will be increased with the 

procurement of National Fire Protection Association (NFPA) 1991 2016 Edition Certified Level 

A (with flash protection) and Level B encapsulating suits. The ANG requires 15 Level A and 15 

Level B suits for each of its 63 FES units.

Public Safety and Security 

Public Safety and Security (ESF 13) –

ANG security forces comprise over 7,400 

defenders from the 54 state, territories and 

District of Columbia. ANG security forces 

units work in cooperation with local, state 

and federal public safety and security 

organizations to support a full range of 

incident management activities. Security 

forces provide law enforcement operations, 

access control operations, presence patrols, 

and protection of personnel and equipment. 

ANG security forces units are equipped with “less-than-lethal” use of force options, explosive 

detection equipment, and traffic control/crowd management equipment. This equipment is used 

to support local, state and federal authorities during events like natural disasters, civil unrest, as 

well as major high visibility 

crowd control events.

SECURITY FORCES VEHICLES 

1. Background. ANG Security Forces (SF) assigned vehicles are in critical need of 

modernization or replacement. New vehicles need to include a law enforcement package 

designed for patrol, response, and transporting equipment to ensure units are capable of 

responding to incidents. This will provide a standardized vehicle fleet, in accordance with 

Headquarters Air Force (HAF)/A4S Joint Service Law Enforcement Vehicle Standardization 

document dated 21 July 2015. Each of the ANG’s 74 stand-alone SF squadrons will receive 

between one and three vehicles depending upon unit mission for a total of 439 vehicles.

SCALABLE EMERGENCY VEHICLE RESPONSE KIT 

1. Background. When ANG Security Forces (SF) surge to full capability, more vehicles are 

required than are routinely assigned to the squadrons. SF units acquire these additional vehicles 

through their parent wing’s vehicle fleet management office, rental vehicles, or other military 

vehicles. These vehicles need temporary equipment modifications to include: emergency 

lighting; high visibility markings; tactical equipment racks and mounts; acoustic hailing device 

for mass notification and crowd dispersal; basic first aid kit; and traffic warning / traffic control 

kits. This equipment is removed from the vehicle once the mission has been completed and is 

subsequently reused when required. Each of the 74 stand-alone ANG SF squadrons need to be 

equipped with three kits, equating to 222 kits, and each of the 22 tenant ANG SF units need to 

receive five kits, equating to an additional 110 kits, for a total of 332 kits.

SECURITY FORCES INTEROPERABLE RADIOS 

1. Background. ANG Security Forces (SF) are currently unable to effectively communicate 

with civilian law enforcement agencies using their organically-owned radio assets. SF radios 

must be able to operate on all civil networks (Ultra High Frequency (UHF)/Very High Frequency 

(VHF)/700 megahertz (MHz)/800 MHz) and be compliant with Association of Public-Safety 

Communications Officials-International’s Project 25 requirements in both line-of-sight and 

trunked modes. Modernized radios will allow communications on common military and civilian 

VHF/UHF, amplitude modulation (AM)/frequency modulation (FM) civil bands and grant 

automatic, instant connectivity among personnel entering the operational area. Each of the 

ANG’s 186 Security Forces Less-than-Lethal Kit (QFLLL) Unit Type Codes (UTC) needs one 

portable base station radio set and be able to equip 13 SF personnel with one handheld radio set 

each. Each of the ANG’s 74 standalone Base Defense Operations Centers needs one console 

radio set plus 28 Operations Handheld Radio Sets for SF personnel. All 439 SF vehicles must be 

equipped with a mobile radio set as well.

SECURITY FORCES TASER MODERNIZATION 

1. Background. ANG Security Forces (SF) require replacement of the TASER X26E because it 

will no longer be supported by the manufacturer. The replacement X26P TASERs, cartridges, 

and batteries will support both Federal and Domestic Operations home station missions. The 

TASER Training Kit includes training cartridges, live cartridges, targets, downloading cables, 

software and an extended warranty. Each of the ANG’s 186 Security Forces Less-than-Lethal 

Kit (QFLLL) Unit Type Codes (UTC) requires 13 X26P TASERs and one training kit.

SECURITY FORCES UTILITY TASKED VEHICLE 

1. Background. ANG Security Forces (SF) require a diesel powered, fully contained, crew 

sized Utility Task Vehicle (UTV) with a Light Emitting Diode (LED) light bar, SF markings, 

and winch to provide SF Defenders with a rapid mobile response vehicle capable of transporting 

up to six personnel and their equipment in austere environments. This vehicle will transport 

defenders during natural disasters or other Defense Support to Civil Authorities (DSCA) 

missions when a full size vehicle cannot access austere terrain. Each of the 186 ANG SF squad 

teams needs to be equipped with one fully packaged UTV.
