mander and C-130 subject matter expert.
ere has never been an Air Force-wide
tactics messaging system, so the 561st JTS
developed AFTR to be a solution to overcome
weapon system or community stove-piping.
“Our solution is a dynamic, tailorable
tactics database with similar search and
build capabilities to a Google/Amazon
combined tactics portal with all tactics
from every weapon system, to include the
newest tactics, incorporated as they are
published,” said Col. Deanna Violette,
561st JTS commander. “This data will
replicate e orts found in the business sec-
tor to utilize organizational knowledge to
maintain a competitive advantage.”
e system allows timely and accurate
dissemination of information to the warf-
ighter and in the process help save Air
Force valuable resources.
“It’s a great innovative tool that allows
folks to learn the lessons that other com-
munities or organizations have learned
already, therefore, they are not using re-
sources to re-learn lessons or as we would
call it ‘lessons observed, not learned’,”
said Violette. “ ere is signi cant savings
in resources alone just in the capture of
the innovative idea in allowing that to be
disseminated across the entire Air Force.

war ghters rather than just by word of mouth
for information. A group may entirely miss
the distribution the way we have it set up right
now. AFTR ensures that the information gets
from the source, i.e., weapons school and test
group, all the way down to each individual
war ghter through their weapons o cer and
through already existing dissemination pro-
cesses. We are ensuring that the information
gets into those conduits.”
AFTR provides additional benefits
other than combining all up-to-date tactics
information into one source.
“ e other bene t of AFTR is it serves
as dissemination tool hosted on the Air
Force’s premier tactics portal. It has all the
tactics combined in that one portal, then
units that are looking at a speci c tactic
can also see what else is out there for all the
other Mission Design Series. If something is
applicable to them that somebody else is do-
ing, they can pull that into their cross-check
as well,” said Lt. Col. William Burns, 561st
JTS director of operations and F-15E SME.
AFTR will be hosted on the 561st JTS
website on the front page and will provide
an opportunity for tactics cross talk just by
simply going to the website.
“Anyone can access AFTR,” said Brooks.
“ ere are two ways, you can either visit the
website and look at ltered views of tactics
content, allowing you to hone in on inter-
ested topics or you can sign up for alerts.”
