PREFACE In recent years, the affordability of weapon systems has become increasingly important to policymakers in the Department of Defense and U.S. Congress. Aerospace industry analysts and some government officials have asserted that government cost estimates are based on outdated methods that do not account for the latest technological innovations. The authors of this report present the results of a RAND research study to update the methods for estimating military jet engine costs and development time. This report is one of a series from a RAND Project AIR FORCE re- search project called “The Cost of Future Military Aircraft: Historical Cost Estimating Relationships and Cost Reduction Initiatives.” The purpose of the project, which is part of the Resource Management Program, is to improve the tools available to the U.S. Air Force for estimating the cost of future weapon systems. The authors provide insights into military engine technology, the military aircraft acquisi- tion process, and parametric cost-estimating methodologies. This study draws from databases from various Air Force, Navy, and military engine contractors and interviews with government experts from the Air Force Research Laboratory (AFRL), Aeronautical Sys- tems Center/Engineering (ASC/EN), Naval Air Systems Command, and industry experts from General Electric, Pratt and Whitney, and Rolls-Royce (North America). This report should be of interest to the cost-analysis community, the military aircraft acquisition community, and acquisition policy pro- fessionals in general. iii
