It creates as many jobs as the second, third and fourth largest Dayton-based employers combined. WPAFB is, by many measures, the largest and most diverse Air Force installation. With a major command headquarters, nine primary missions and 60 tenant units, the base composition can be difficult to comprehend. The community has come to think of the base as a medium-size city with its own airport. 88th Air Base Wing = city management and mayor Air Force Materiel Command = a Fortune 40 company Aeronautical Systems Center = a Fortune 135 company Air Force Institute of Technology = a STEM focused university National Air and Space Intelligence Center = a major IT company Enterprise Logistics Directorate = a major software company 445th Airlift Wing = an international airline National Museum of the U.S. Air Force = a Smithsonian museum Air Force Security Assistance Center = an international company Air Force Research Laboratory = 5 university research institutes Wright-Patterson AFB Economic Impact TOTAL JOBS >60,469 TOTAL ANNUAL PAYROLL >$3.4 BILLION ANNUAL EXPENDITURES >$1.7 BILLION NUMBER OF RETIREES >20,000 RETIREE DISBURSEMENTS >$560 MILLION GRP (Gross Regional Product) 10.5% direct contribution BOTTOM LINE $5.7 BILLION ECONOMIC IMPACT This concentration of air power and policy has created a testbed for aerospace and aeronautical research, development, test, evaluation and acquisition. The Air Force Research Laboratory s (AFRL) R&D budget alone is nearly twice the R&D investment made by all Ohio Academic and public institutions. Top 15 SBIR/STTR States, 2001 to 2010 Additionally, federal agencies have invested $1.09 billion in Ohio (in millions) small businesses over the last ten years through Small Business $4,000 Phase I Phase II Innovative Research and Small Business Technology Transfer $3,500 (SBIR/STTR) contracts. This engine for innovation is driving the region s technology commercialization initiatives and venture capital $3,000 investments. $2,500 $2,000 $1,500 $1,000 $500 The combined strength of AFRL and the Aeronautical Systems Center offers cradle to grave program management requiring a workforce of more than 10,000 and regular travel to contractor locations. $- CA MA VA MD NY CO TX OH PA NJ WA FL MI AL NC

The combined contribution of these industries is $5 Billion to just the MSA comprising only four of the region s 14 counties. The UAS industry is projected to grow to a $31 Billion industry over the next 10 years. The Dayton Region is pursuing initiatives that will secure FAA approved airspace, attract aerospace research, development, test and evaluation companies, and assist the military in meeting their mission requirements. The region s goal is to become a test bed for UAS integration into national airspace and to become the national center for UAS and aerospace research, development, acquisition and commercialization.
