U -- U. S. AIR FORCE LONG RANGE PLANS BRIEFING TO INDUSTRY Sol DNA-LR7 Contact Points, Peter Carellas or Joe Hyland 202/775-1440 The Office of the Special Assistant to the Chief of Staff of the United States Air Force for Long Range Planning (AF/LR), in conjunction with the National Security Industrial Association (NSIA), present an unclassified symposium to discuss the future of the United States Air Force. AF/LR was established in November 1995 to develop a strategic vision for the Air Force of 2025, while developing a process that institutionalizes long-range strategic planning. The vision, developed with senior Air Force leader input, will articulate the contributions of air and space power to joint war fighting and the future defense needs of the nation, as well as chart actionable courses to that future. AF/LR is capturing, evaluating, and synthesizing innovative ideas that could have a revolutionary impact on the Air Force, including those generated by recently completed long range studies such as the Air Force Scientific Advisory Board's New World Vistas and Air University's Air Force 2025. Areas receiving the Long Range Plans staff's attention include: Long Range Planning Processes; Role of Manned and Unmanned Air Vehicles (UAV's); Space; Personnel; Systems Acquisition; Science and Technology (S&T); Infrastructure and many more. The objective of the symposium is to initiate a forum to facilitate Air Force/industry/academia partnerships and begin dialogue on the course upon which AF/LR has embarked. This is the first in what will become an annual event presented by the Air Force Chief of Staff (CSAF) to institutionalize long-range planning in the Air Force. The first Air Force Long-Range Planning Symposium will be held 7 August 1996 at the Washington National Airport Hilton Hotel, 2399 Jefferson Davis Highway, Arlington, VA 22202.
