This thesis studies the effects of maintenance operations on a fighter base in a chemical environment. The desired goal is to determine if current manning for flight line maintenance is sufficient to support air operations. A simulation model was developed to model the required tasks of maintenance in a wartime surge. The effects of wearing chemically protective clothing were incorporated to measure the results of operating with different numbers of aircraft and maintenance available. Analysis was performed using nonparametric tests, due to the nature of the data. The results of these tests indicate that the present manning is not sufficient. Material is presented in the appendices that shows the nature of improvements being made in the chemical defense ensembles and aircraft systems. These improvements may reduce the limitations that are present in the current equipment used.
