What are you asking for? What does Mtbomf mean (I haven't heard of this acronym)?

Please be more specific on what you are asking.

Looks like it's Mean Time Between Operational Mission Failures (http://acronyms.thefreedictionary.com/Mean+Time+Between+Operational+Mission+Failure).

Is it Mean Time Between Operation and Mission Failure or ...Operational Mission Failures? It does make a difference.

It is "Mean Time Between Operation and Mission Failure". Al

Hi Al, the correct abbreviation is "Mean Time Between Operational Mission Failure". I have attached a Military document for reference.

Thanks for the file. It's Failures; without the "s" it makes no sense.
