This aircrew training manual (ATM) TC 3-04.44 standardizes aircrew training programs (ATPs) and flight evaluation procedures. This manual provides specific guidelines for executing OH-58D aircrew training. It is based on battle-focused training principles outlined at the Army Training Network. It establishes crewmember qualification, refresher, mission, and continuation training and evaluation requirements. This manual applies to all OH 58D crewmembers and their commanders in the Active Army, the United States Army National Guard(ARNG), the Army National Guard of the United States (ARNGUS), and the United States Army Reserve (USAR) unless otherwise stated. This manual is not a stand-alone document; all requirements of Army Regulation (AR) 600-105, National Guard Regulation (NGR) 95-210, and Training Circular (TC) 3-04.11 to the ATP must be met. If differences exist between the maneuver description in the operator's manuals, this manual is the governing authority for training and flight evaluation purposes only. The operator's manual is the governing authority for operations of the aircraft. Implementation of this manual conforms to AR 95-1 and TC 3-04.11. If a conflict exists between this manual and TC 3-04.11, then TC 3-04.11 will take precedence. This manual will help aviation commanders, at all levels; develop a comprehensive ATP. By using the ATM, commanders ensure that individual crewmember and aircrew proficiency is commensurate with their units' mission and that aircrews routinely employ standard techniques and procedures. Standardization officers, evaluators, and unit trainers (UTs) will use this manual and TC 3-04.11 as primary tools to assist the commander in developing and implementing the ATP. Crewmembers will use this manual as a "how to" source for performing crewmember duties. It provides performance standards and evaluation guidelines so that crewmembers know the level of performance expected. Each task provides a description of how the task should be completed to meet the standard. ATP commanders of active Army, National Guard, and Army Reserve units operating the OH-58D will use this ATM and TC 3-04.11 to develop individual commander's task lists for assigned aviators. ATP commanders with assigned contract pilots will develop individual commander's task lists tailored to the current contract position using this ATM, TC 3-04.11, AR 95- 20, current flight training guides and/or local command directives.

Training circular (TC) 3-04.34 standardizes aircrew training programs (ATPs) and flight evaluation procedures. This aircrew training manual (ATM) provides specific guidelines for executing CH-47D/F aircrew training. It is based on training principles outlined at the Army Training Network. This ATM establishes crewmember qualification training, refresher training, mission training, and continuation training and evaluation requirements. It applies to all CH-47 crewmembers and their commanders in the active Army, the Army National Guard Bureau/United States Army National Guard (ARNG), and the United States Army Reserve (USAR). The CH-47D is a similar aircraft to the CH-47F; the CH- 47F is series grouped with the MH-47G. This manual is not a stand-alone document; all requirements of Army regulation (AR) 600-105, AR 600-106, National Guard Regulation (NGR) AR 95-210, and TC 3-04.11 to the ATP must be met. The operator's manual is the authority for operation of the aircraft. If differences exist between the maneuver descriptions in Technical Manual (TM) 1-1520-240-10 or TM 1-1520-271-10 and this publication, this publication is the governing authority for training and flight evaluation purposes. Implementation of this publication conforms to AR 95-1 and TC 3-04.11. If a conflict exists between this publication and TC 3-04.11, the ATP commander determines the method of accomplishment based upon the requirement and the unit's mission as to which manual takes precedence. This manual, in conjunction with the ARs and TC 3-04.11, will help develop a comprehensive ATP. Using this ATM ensures that individual crewmember and aircrew proficiency is commensurate with the unit's mission and aircrews routinely employ standard techniques and procedures. Crewmembers will use this manual as a "how to" source for performing crewmember duties. It provides performance standards and evaluation guidelines so that crewmembers know the level of performance expected. Each task has a description of the proper procedures to meet the standard.

This anthology discusses the converging operational issues of air base defense and counterinsurgency. It explores the diverse challenges associated with defending air assets and joint personnel in a counterinsurgency environment. The authors are primarily Air Force officers from security forces, intelligence, and the office of special investigations, but works are included from a US Air Force pilot and a Canadian air force officer. The authors examine lessons from Vietnam, Iraq, Afghanistan, and other conflicts as they relate to securing air bases and sustaining air operations in a high-threat counterinsurgency environment. The essays review the capabilities, doctrine, tactics, and training needed in base defense operations and recommend ways in which to build a strong, synchronized ground defense partnership with joint and combined forces. The authors offer recommendations on the development of combat leaders with the depth of knowledge, tactical and operational skill sets, and counterinsurgency mind set necessary to be effective in the modern asymmetric battlefield.

Volume 5, Deep Maneuver: Historical Case Studies of Maneuver in Large-Scale Combat Operations, presents eleven case studies from World War II through Operation Iraqi Freedom focusing on deep maneuver in terms of time, space and purpose. Deep operations require boldness and audacity, and yet carry an element of risk of overextension - especially in light of the independent factors of geography and weather that are ever-present. As a result, the case studies address not only successes, but also failure and shortfalls that result when conducting deep operations. The final two chapters address these considerations for future Deep Maneuver.

This book provides a comprehensive basics-to-advanced course in an aero-thermal science vital to the design of engines for either type of craft. The text classifies engines powering aircraft and single/multi-stage rockets, and derives performance parameters for both from basic aerodynamics and thermodynamics laws. Each type of engine is analyzed for optimum performance goals, and mission-appropriate engines selection is explained. Fundamentals of Aircraft and Rocket Propulsion provides information about and analyses of: thermodynamic cycles of shaft engines (piston, turboprop, turboshaft and propfan); jet engines (pulsejet, pulse detonation engine, ramjet, scramjet, turbojet and turbofan); chemical and non-chemical rocket engines; conceptual design of modular rocket engines (combustor, nozzle and turbopumps); and conceptual design of different modules of aero-engines in their design and off-design state. Aimed at graduate and final-year undergraduate students, this textbook provides a thorough grounding in the history and classification of both aircraft and rocket engines, important design features of all the engines detailed, and particular consideration of special aircraft such as unmanned aerial and short/vertical takeoff and landing aircraft. End-of-chapter exercises make this a valuable student resource, and the provision of a downloadable solutions manual will be of further benefit for course instructors.

The United States faces major challenges in dealing with Iran, the threat of terrorism, and the tide of political instability in the Arabian Peninsula. The presence of some of the world’s largest reserves of oil and natural gas, vital shipping lanes, and Shia populations throughout the region have made the peninsula the focal point of US and Iranian strategic competition. Moreover, large youth populations, high unemployment rates, and political systems with highly centralized power bases have posed other economic, political, and security challenges that the Gulf states must address and that the United States must take into consideration when forming strategy and policy.
