EVALUATION OF MULTICONDUCTOR CABLES USED IN GROUND TO AIR GUIDED MISSILE SYSTEMS,

Abstract

It was concluded that a properly fabricated cable with thermoplastic primary insulation will perform as well as any other materials tested. Silicone rubber insulated conductors in limited numbers were tested under this program and were found to be satisfactory. Silicone rubber as jacketing material was considered not satisfactory due to failures during mechanical testing. Data presented in this paper will prove helpful to assist cable manufacturers in keeping abreast of the increasing severe Military requirements and of the progress attained in this area.
