ARNG Budget
The ARNG is programmed to receive 7%
less in Fiscal Year 2015
Fiscal Year 2015 will be very hard …
Budget Facts
• No mobilization offset
• Schools funding reduced 38%
• Special Training reduced 28%
• I/C/S training for nearly all units
• 675 AGR reduction
• Major cuts to facility support
ARNG Facts
• Best Medical Readiness in the Army
• Historically low No-Val rate of 1.2%
• Duty MOS Qualified at 84.9%
• Historically high EOH, Modernization
• Critical Dual Use equipment at 94%
• Nearly half the force has deployed
…but we are the best led, best trained, best
equipped and most experienced force in our history.
Force Structure / End Strength
• ARNG is programmed to reduce its strength to 350,200
in FY15, and to 335,000 by FY17
• Further reduction to 315,000
by FY19 under Budget Control Act
• BCA may not leave the ARNG
postured for operational success
FY 2015
350,200 ES
FY 2017

Overview – Equip the Force
• ARNG Equipment on Hand (EOH) and
modernization status is comparable to
the Active Component
• ARNG MTOE EOH is 93%
• Critical Dual Use equipment fill is 94%
• ARNG Modernized Equipment status is
measured at 92% of the 93% EOH
Equipment levels are at
historic highs.
When Budget Control
Act funding levels
return, readiness levels
will drop.

National Guard Capability Gaps that have
Pending Solutions
Shortfall Description:
1. Military Bridging: Most bridging assets have been eliminated from
the Army. Assets are particularly lacking in New England.
2. Small Unmanned Ground Vehicle (SUGV) for EOD: No Small
Unmanned Ground Vehicle for EOD missions
3. Recapitalization of aging HH-60G, ANG. Reduced Operational
Rates and availability for training and Civil Support operations due to
age and use of aircraft.
4. Recapitalization of MC-130P, ANG. Reduced Operational Rates and
availability for training and Civil Support operations due to age and
use of aircraft.

UNCLASSIFIED
National Guard Capability Gaps with
on-going Solutions Analyses
Shortfall Description:
1. Joint Incident Awareness & Assessment (IAA)
Processing, Assessment, and Dissemination (PAD)
Capability. Insufficient capability to provide unclassified
PAD during NG domestic operations.
2. Cyber. NGB/State NG lacks full cyber capability, including
guidance, training, manning, systems, etc.
- 12 -
UNCLASSIFIED
Shortfalls that Require Further Analysis or other
Actions to Determine Way Ahead
Shortfall Description:
1. Shared Situational Awareness (SSA). State NG lacks
ability to share data and build a usable visual geospatiallybased Common Operating Picture.
2. JFHQ Network Access. State NG lacks ability to cross-talk
between Army and Air Guard .mil domains.

Aviation
COL Mark Weiss
ARNG Aviation
Improve Mission Command Capability:
• Military to Civil Authority Communications - Current radios
(including UH-60M and CH-47F) do not allow communications with
ground partners such as local sheriffs/ police/rescue agencies.
Special Needs in Domestic Operations:
• Search and Rescue (SAR) Package – Requirement for improved
capability to support SAR during Support to Civil Authorities missions
to include
• Updated Forward Looking Infra-Red (FLIR) systems to support
MEDEVAC missions and support of Civil Authorities
• Internal aircraft communications
• Rescue Hoist Ground Support Equipment
Modernized Helicopter Fleet:
• Internal Auxiliary Fuel Tank System (IAFTS) – Longer flight
distances required.
• Display Unit (Heads Up Display) Upgrades - Upgrades for
daytime HUD capability.
• Blade Folding Kits – Essential for deployment preparation and
hangaring for adverse weather conditions in facilities with limited
space.
Training
Mr. Ron Englehart
Training Aids, Devices, Simulators, and
Simulations (TADSS)
Artillery
• Issue: Currently there are no Artillery crew simulators in the ARNG
• Discussion:
• Fire Support Combined Arms Tactical Trainer (FSCATT) A6/A5:
o FSCATT A6 version replaced the A5 over 5 years ago; ARNG was
directed to turn-in all FSCATT A5s
o A6 is only located on AC installations
o ARNG not scheduled to receive A6s
o FSCATT A6 production line is closed
• Paladin Integrated Management (PIM) FSCATT
o New trainer
o Scheduled to be fielded to TRADOC School Houses only
o ARNG only scheduled to receive 2 PIM FSCATT simulators in FY23
• Unique ARNG Training Challenges
o Due to geographic dispersion, tubes aren’t co-located with units.
o Devices need to be issued down to the lowest level, Battalion or
Company

•
Where are We Today?
– 54 Diverse, local solutions
– No enterprise solution
Where are We Going?
– All Domestic Mission Partners (local - federal)
– Persistent and episodic environment
– National Guard and Coast Guard co-chaired
JTSO working group
DOD and DA Provided?
– DISA enterprise mission partner gateways
at the national level
– Local MPE not considered
Gaps
– Local MPE not provided
– No universal COP for incident management
& reporting
– Information: Appropriate access/filtering,
maintained locally, shared nationally
