She spearheaded an unusual and unprecedented effort to divert Maverick mis- siles from Air Force production to support an Urgent Operational Requirement identified by the United Kingdom. By aggressively working with the major commands as well as the Guidance and Control Section program manager, I was able to identify assets that could be made available for input into the production schedule at Raytheon, said Litanski. The proactive approach ensured the quantity necessary to meet the first months delivery schedule of 100 in October 2000 was available. Litanski was the driving force behind planning and preparation to successfully support the sale of AGM-65Gmissiles to the United Kingdom. This 2 initiative required extensive coordination between the Ogden Air Logistics Center Maverick Division, Eglin AFB, the major commands, Secretary of the Air Force International Affairs, Red River Munitions Center (RRMC), Raytheon Systems Company and local ALC team members to name a few. Litanski demonstrated superior leadership on the program from the start by skillfully identifying options and risks and clearly communicating the information to senior leadership, according to the award. A direct result of Litanskis diligence Achievement, Commitment, and Excellence was the production at RRMC (down rounding missiles) increased and the schedule accelerated to meet the UK requirement. The Maverick SPO provided additional test equipment to support this effort. Due to the increased output, RRMC would complete the project earlier than originally anticipated causing a workload gap. Litanski, in coordination with the EO Maverick program manager, recommended periodic missile inspections for the AGM-65be accomplished at RRMC as a gap filler. This is important, as there had JT V7S if in B previously been a work stoppage at RRMC earlier in the year. This accomplishment required Litanski to organize and chair meetings with all involved personnel in Washington D.C. and Hill AFB. She was the key to ensuring proper approvals were obtained, including a staff summary sheet. This was an unprecedented effort to divert missiles from a USAF contract production line to support an Urgent Operational Requirement for the United Kingdom via a Direct Commercial Sale, said Litanski. It also involves a unique exchange agreement whereby the U.S. Air Force and government receives credits as a result of the missile sale. This credit is applied toward production of new versions of the Electro Optical missile. No matter where I call home, USA A is there. Property Insurance.
