    Assessment of Beddown Alternatives for the F-35 (2023)
    RAND Corporation
    Details
    Publication Date: 2023-10-05
    Description: The F-35 Joint Strike Fighter is the most costly aircraft acquisition program in Defense Department history. RAND assessed the potential for savings by reconfiguring the U.S. Air Force’s combat-coded F-35s into larger squadrons, adjusting the Primary Aerospace Vehicle Authorized (PAA) mix across the Active and Reserve Components, and adjusting the percentage of PAA permanently assigned to locations in the continental United States.

    Afghan Peace Talks (2023)
    RAND Corporation
    Details
    Publication Date: 2024-04-04
    Description: The objective of a negotiated peace in Afghanistan has been firmly embraced by most of the potential parties to a treaty. However, arriving at an agreement about the sequencing, timing, and prioritization of peace terms is likely to be difficult, given the divergence in the parties' interests and objectives. The U.S. objective in these negotiations should be a stable and peaceful Afghanistan that neither hosts nor collaborates with terrorists.

    Individual Preparedness and Response to Chemical, Radiological, Nuclear, and Biological Terrorist Attacks (2023)
    RAND Corporation
    Details
    Publication Date: 2023-10-05
    Description: Individuals may have to rely on themselves to protect their own health and safety--perhaps even their own lives--in the event of a terrorist attack. Even those who know how to take care of themselves in the event of a fire, tornado, or earthquake might not know what to do in case of a chemical, radiological, nuclear, or biological attack. This quick guide attempts to fill in some of these gaps by offering specific actions to take during each of these situations, as well as preparations that can be taken. These actions are appropriate regardless of the likelihood of an attack, its scale, or the current government alert level; are designed to be sensitive to potential variations; and have been defined in terms of simple rules that should be easy to follow. A reference card included at the back of the guide encapsulates the key points and can be removed for display in a prominent place.

    Assessment of Joint Improvised Explosive Device Defeat Organization (JIEDDO) Training Activity (2023)
    RAND Corporation
    Details
    Publication Date: 2023-10-05
    Description: The Joint Improvised Explosive Device Defeat Organization (JIEDDO) carries out training activities both as part of its equipment and system development responsibilities and its responsibility to “train the force” in IED threats and countermeasures. This report assesses whether JIEDDO’s programs and functions may be duplicative with those of the military Services, U.S. Special Operations Command, and other agencies.

    RAND Corporation
    Details
    Publication Date: 2023-10-05

    Performance Evaluation and Army Recruiting (2023)
    RAND Corporation
    Details
    Publication Date: 2023-10-05
    Description: Traditional performance metrics, such as number of contracts signed per month per Army recruiter, do not adequately measure recruiter effort, skill, and productivity. The authors develop a "preferred performance metric" that takes into account the difficulty of recruiting different types of youth in various markets and propose short-term changes to the system that would more accurately assess recruiter effort and skill.
