Operational Test and Evaluation Noise Suppressor System Type A/S32A-5
Abstract
The type A/S32A-5 Noise Suppressor was found to be unsatisfactory for use with the F-100 type air craft as it could not be properly aligned to the aircraft. It could not withstand the thrust, temperature, and shock characteristics of the J75 Plngine used in the F-105 aircraft. Numerous deficiencies were revealed in the equip ment during the test program. Although some of these were corrected by modifications, the equip ment still has design deficiencies that make it unsatisfactory to fill the Tactical Air Command requirements for noise suppression equipment.
