NAE Future Readiness: 

NAE Future Readiness Procure capability enhancements that guarantee warfighting relevance through 2025. Maintain sufficient capacity to meet global presence and warfighting requirements. Avoid overlap with other Joint capabilities. Capability or capacity trades must preserve warfighting wholeness and core Naval missions. Strive to reduce average aircraft age to a target of 50% of Expected Service Life.
