Targets

� Mission Trajectory� ARES part of MT� 4DT data sharing + flight performance?

� Advanced FUA (AFUA)� Collaborative Decision Making between civil and military at

national, FAB and network level� Variable Profile Area (VPA) design principle� Dynamic Mobile Area (DMA) type 1, 2 and 3

� Performance - Mission Effectiveness

Mission Trajectory Workshop 23 Oct 2013

Enablers for Mission Trajectory

� EUROAT- Harmonised EUROCONTROL ECAC Area Rules for OAT-IFR and GAT Interface

� OATTS - Pan-European OAT Transit Service� Improved Operational Air Traffic Flight Plan (iOAT FPL)� Harmonized Aeronautical Database – civil and military� Interoperability - Security� Net centric approach/SWIM - Confidentiality� Real time ATM data sharing� Enhanced Mission Support Systems (MSS)� Enhanced Airspace Management (ASM) Support Systems� Centralized Service(s)

iOAT FPL IMPLEMENTATION OBJECTIVE

The first major improvement towards integration at the network level of the future Mission Trajectory

Mission Trajectory Workshop 23 Oct 2013

OAT FPL – Harmonisation

� Defined at European level� Common format – ICAO FPL

including military specifics� Harmonized content� Transparent category of

flight/status: OAT, OAT/GAT

Mission Trajectory Workshop 23 Oct 2013

Improved OAT FPL – Implementation

� Initial step towards the Shared/Reference Mission Trajectory� Airspace reservation (ARES) included� Support to the management of the estimated/target times for

military flights : ETO/TTO (entry/exit ARES)� Addressing all Military flights, manned or unmanned� Centralised validation and distribution

� Central validation at network level (similar to all GAT)� Promulgation of OAT IFR FPLs by NM

� Distribution to concerned ATM Actors (with limited access to certain FPL data)

Expected benefits

� Transparency of military demand – overall network airspace capacity� Integration at the network level - predictability and sharing � Enhanced military-military cooperation (e.g. OATTS, CBOs)� Enhanced civil-military cooperation (e.g. OAT/GAT interface )� Enhanced flight efficiency and flight safety� Potential cost reduction opportunities (use of network level solutions):

� Simplification of national military infrastructures supporting ATM � Shared ATM infrastructure� Avoiding adaptation of legacy systems

WAY AHEAD

� Involvement of military community in validation activities� feasibility & maturity assessment (2014)

� demonstrate benefits of the change (2015 T.B.C)

� Identification of candidate military systems for the validation activities (PoC Marc De Cat - Marc.DE-CAT@eurocontrol.int)
