Development of Mau-91/B Fin Assembly

Abstract

This program was concerned with the design, development, fabrication and testing of a prototype speed brake decelerator that gives the M117, 750 pound bomb a low level delivery capability. The requirements for the decelerator became urgent, as a result of the conflict in Southeast Asia, and the program was expanded to include development of preliminary production tooling and fabrication of production type decelerators to qualify the unit for aircraft. The decelerator was designated the MAU-91/B Fin Assembly and was put into production concurrent with this research and development program.
