The repair center 13 ( InstZ 13 ), until March 31, 2014 referred to as the Avionics System Center (SysZ Avionics), is a unit of the Bundeswehr ( Air Force ) set up on January 1, 2009 in the underground facility in the Welfen barracks near Landsberg .

history

The repair center 13 emerged from various air force maintenance groups as a competence center for maintenance and for maintaining the knowledge and assessment ability of the armed forces in the field of avionics . The avionics system center was responsible for the tasks of Air Force Maintenance Group 13 (Landsberg), which was dissolved on December 31, 2008 and which had previously been the focus of avionics maintenance, as well as the avionics components of Air Force Maintenance Groups 11 (Neckarnrooms), which were also dissolved on December 31, 2008, 12 (Ummendorf) and 24 (Wustorf) concentrated.

The Avionics System Center was subordinate to the Weapons System Support Center 1 at Erding Air Base. According to the detailed planning for the stationing concept of Air Force Structure 6, the Avionics System Center should be relocated to the location of the Air Force Maintenance Regiment 1 in Erding after 2012 .

In the context of the deployment decision of October 2011, however, Defense Minister Thomas de Maizière determined that the avionics system center would remain at the site and be subordinate to the newly established weapon system support center 1. As part of the realignment of the Bundeswehr , the Avionics System Center (SysZ Avionics) was reclassified to the Maintenance Center 13 (InstZ 13) on April 1, 2014.

assignment

The core of the order of the repair center 13 (InstZ 13) is the repair of electronic and optronic devices of the avionic systems of various aircraft of the Bundeswehr in all material maintenance levels . This order also includes the repair of the test and measuring equipment required for the maintenance, usually automatic test systems, as well as the creation, maintenance and modification of the test software.

In addition, the repair center 13 also includes specialists and engineers who contribute to the preservation of the knowledge and assessment ability of the air force in the field of avionics and turn a maintenance group into a system center. In addition to the mere repair order, the technical support and provision of technical expertise for higher-level agencies, such as the weapons system command of the Air Force and offices in the field of armaments and procurement, such as the Federal Office for Equipment, Information Technology and Use of the Bundeswehr , are part of the InstZ 13's mandate. The design and manufacture of special devices and small series for the armed forces in the field of avionics and ground test systems is also part of the centre's range of tasks.

In addition to the technical repair order and the ability to assess, the training of its own staff is one of the tasks of the repair center.

Supervised weapon systems

At the repair center 13, assemblies, so-called Line Replaceable Units (LRU) , and modules / sub-assemblies, so-called Shop Replaceable Units (SRU) , mainly from the Panavia TORNADO weapon system but also from other airborne weapon systems of the Bundeswehr are maintained and technically serviced.
