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.

Thanks Jim. At first, I thought it was MTBF being explained by a professor suffering from turrets syndrome...

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

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