existing weather systems, focusing on the incremental integration,

Force Weather Weapon System (AFWWS) systems and evolve JET component system

capabilities to ultimately achieve the required architecture through

incremental deliveries of enhanced capability.  The JET program will realize

the reengineered Air Force Weather concept by providing a next generation

system that replaces disparate legacy weather systems with a single,

integrated capability that provides tailorable weather products to the user

with interfaces to applicable Command and Control systems.  The JET Program

implements the AFWWS architecture through the incremental fielding of system

capabilities, which will eliminate redundancies and inefficiencies and

ultimately extend, consolidate and/or replace the systems mentioned above.
