U.S. Air ForceONS-01 is a field-ready performance and recovery nutrition system
ONS-01 is designed to extend physical output, recovery capacity, and cognitive resilience during sustained Air Force operations, alert cycles, and high-tempo mission environments.
DISTINCTIVE FEATURES
- High-density protein delivery with minimal logistics footprint
- Optimized for connective tissue strength and recovery, not bodybuilding
- Supports neuromuscular and cognitive recovery under prolonged stress
- No preparation, no cold chain, no cooking equipment
- Predictable daily intake model (procurement-friendly)
- Supports reduced overuse injury risk and fatigue accumulation during extended operational cycles
Integrates with existing Air Force ration and feeding frameworks.
WHAT IT IS
- Non-perishable, field-deployable nutrition system
- 3 sachets per day deliver 90 g of high-density protein in a compact format
- Zero preparation. Zero refrigeration.
- Designed for sustained flight operations, alert duty, training cycles, and contingency missions
WHY IT EXISTS
- Air Force operations impose high physical, cognitive, and neurological load
- Alert cycles and flight schedules compress recovery opportunities
- Standard rations are designed to meet caloric requirements, not to optimize tissue resilience and recovery under sustained operational stress
- Repetitive load and fatigue increase injury and performance risk before visible degradation occurs
- Mission readiness depends on resilient musculoskeletal systems and nervous system stability
ONS-01 exists to increase physical resilience and recovery capacity so personnel can sustain high output across extended Air Force operational cycles.
OPERATIONAL USE CASES
- Sustained flight operations and alert duty
- High-tempo training and readiness cycles
- Pre- and post-mission recovery support
- High-stress, time-compressed operational environments
- Supplementary support alongside standard Air Force rations
