Basis of Issue Plan - BOIP
A. DESCRIPTION: THE P0WER PLANT, ELECTRIC (PPE), TRAILER
MOUNTED: AN/MJQ-44 (LIN P28143) IS THE PRIMARY POWER CONDITIONER AND
TACTICAL POWER SOURCE FOR THE GUARDRAIL COMMON SENSOR (GR/CS)
SURVEILLANCE INTEGRATED PROCESSING CENTER: AN/TSQ-176A. PPE CONSISTS
OF FOUR MAJOR SUBSETS:
(1) THREE SUBSETS ARE IDENTICALLY MODIFIED TRAILER-MOUNTED
MEP009B GENERATOR SETS, DIESEL ENGINE: 200 KW 60HZ 3PH AC 240/416V
SKD TACTICAL UTILITY (LIN J40158).
(2) THE FOURTH SUBSET IS AN AUTOMATIC MASTER PARALLELING
CONTROL AND SWITCHING SYSTEM (AMPCSS) WHICH PERFORMS MOST OF THE
OPERATOR FUNCTIONS. THE AMPCSS IS MOUNTED IN AN 8' X 8' X 20'
INTERNATIONAL STANDARDS ORGANIZATION (ISO) SHELTER WHICH ALSO
CONTAINS: A 60HZ, 72 KW SOLID STATE POWER CONDITIONER TO ACCEPT AND
CONDITION COMMERCIAL POWER FOR GARRISON AND EXTENDED DEPLOYMENT
OPERATIONS; A 400HZ FREQUENCY CONVERTER TO PROVIDE POWER TO THE NBC
EQUIPMENT; A YORK ENVIRONMENTAL CONTROL UNIT (ECU); AND A FUEL SYSTEM
WHICH EXTENDS TO THE TWO 600-GALLON FUEL PODS AND THREE GENERATORS.
COMPONENTS OF THE AN/MJQ-44 INCLUDE:

B. CAPABILITIES: THE AN/MJQ-44 POWER PLANT PROVIDES POWER TO ONE
OF TWO KINDS OF GUARDRAIL COMMON SENSOR (GR/CS) SYSTEMS:
(1) GR/CS SYSTEM 1, WHICH INCLUDES: FOUR INTEGRATED
PROCESSING FACILITIES (BOIP M087AB THRU M087AE), ONE AN/GSM-271C
ELECTRONIC SHOP MAINTENANCE FACILITY (LIN Z38388, BOIP M087MB), AND
THE INTEROPERABLE DATA LINK SET AN/UPQ-3C (LIN Z35531, BOIP M087AH).
(2) GR/CS SYSTEM 2, WHICH INCLUDES: FOUR INTEGRATED
PROCESSING FACILITIES (BOIP M096AA THRU M096AD), AND ONE
AN/GSM-271(X) ELECTRONIC SHOP MAINTENANCE FACILITY (LIN Z38456, BOIP
M096AI).
C. EMPLOYMENT: THIS SYSTEM IS TO BE EMPLOYED ONLY AT
MILITARY INTELLIGENCE BRIGADES, AERIAL EXPLOITATION BATTALIONS,
CORPS (TOE 34415A100/200). THE PPE ACCEPTS 208V 3-PHASE POWER EITHER
FROM A COMMERCIAL OR GENERATOR SOURCE THROUGH TWO 700-AMP CIRCUIT
BREAKERS. IN THE EVENT OF COMMERCIAL POWER FAILURE, THE UPS WILL
TAKE OVER WHILE THE AMPCSS STARTS THE FIRST GENERATOR AND PREPARES IT
TO CARRY THE LOAD. THE AMPCSS CAN SWITCH BETWEEN GENERATORS AND/OR
BALANCE THE POWER REQUIREMENT BETWEEN TWO GENERATORS
AUTOMATICALLY WHENEVER A FAULT OR FAILURE IS DETECTED IN THE CURRENT
POWER SOURCE.
D. BASIS OF ISSUE: ONE PER AVIATION COMPANY (ELECTRONIC
WARFARE) MILITARY INTELLIGENCE BATTALION (AERIAL EXPLOITATION),
CORPS (TOE 34418A100/200).
E. POWER REQUIREMENTS: NONE
F. TRANSPORTATION REQUIREMENTS:
(1) THE AN/MJQ-44 POWER PLANT REQUIRES FOUR PRIME MOVERS AND
ONE DOLLY:
TWO TRUCK, CARGO, W/E, LIN T61908
ONE TRUCK, CARGO, W/E, LIN T41135
ONE TRUCK, CARGO, W/W, LIN T41203
ONE DOLLY, LIN 34883
(2) AIRCRAFT TRANSPORTABLE ON C130, C141, AND C5
(3) TOTAL WEIGHT: 55,830 LBS; TOTAL CUBE: 5,993.5
G. PERSONNEL/MAINTENANCE IMPACTS:
(1) OPERATOR: AFTER THE INITIAL START, THE AMPCSS PERFORMS
ALL OPERATOR FUNCTIONS EXCEPT REFUELING AND INSPECTIONS.
(2) MAINTAINERS:
UL MAINTENANCE: 33W, 44E, 52C, 52D, 63B, 63S
DS MAINTENANCE: 33W, 44E, 52C, 52D, 52E, 63G, 63W
GS MAINTENANCE: 44B, 44E, 52C, 52D, 52E, 63G, 63W
H. SPECIAL NOTES:
(1) BOING IS NOT APPROPRIATE FOR PUBLICATION IN AR 71-13.
(2) FIELDING MAY REQUIRE SUBSTITUTE VEHICLES (X40931) UNTIL
MTV BECOMES AVAILABLE.
(3) THE BASE ITEM IN ALL AERIAL EXPLOITATION BATTALIONS IS
GUARDRAIL V (GRV). THE HISTORY OF THE GUARDRAIL FAMILY FOLLOWS:
GRV WAS ORIGINALLY REQUIRED IN FOUR BASIC VARIATIONS: ONE
EACH WAS SCHEDULED TO BE FIELDED AT HUNTER AAF, GA, FORT HOOD, TX,
KOREA AND USAREUR.
AT HUNTER AAF, GRV WAS REPLACED BY GR/CS SYSTEM 1 (TOE
34418A100).
AT KOREA, GRV WAS REPLACED IN TOE 34418A300.
FOR OPERATION DESERT STORM A FIFTH VARIATION
(TOE 34418A400) WAS REQUIRED TO REPLACE THE GRV--THEN IT WAS
REASSIGNED TO USAREUR.
AT FT HOOD, GRV WAS REPLACED BY IGRV (TOE 34418A500) WHICH
IS NOW BEING REPLACED BY THE GR/CS SYSTEM 2 (TOE 34418A200).
(4) GR/CS SYSTEM 1 CONSISTS OF THE FOLLOWING LINS:
R37104 (M087AA), Z48621 (M087AB), Z32369 (M087AC),
S02634 (M087AD), S68422 (M087AE), P28143 (M087AF),
Z16650 (M087AG), Z35531 (M087AH), T77696 (M087MA),
Z38388 (M087MB), Z38320 (M087MC).
(5) ALL QUICKLOOK PERSONNEL WERE REPLACED USING M087AA.
GR/CS EQUIPMENT WAS REPLACED WITH THE OTHER BOIPS.
(6) GR/CS SYSTEM 2 CONSISTS OF THE FOLLOWING LINS:
Z48689 (M096AA), Z48757 (M096AB), Z48825 (M096AC),
Z48893 (M096AD), Z06177 (M096AE), Z33934 (M096AF),
Z48940 (M096AG), Z44004 (M096AH), Z38456 (M096AI),
Z57582 (M096AJ),
AND THIS BOIP... P28143 (M087AF).
(7) GR/CS SYSTEM 2 REQUIRES A NEW VARIATION (...200) OF TOE
34418A000, TO REPLACE TOE 34418A500.
