Modification of AN/GAQ-1 Alarm Set.

Abstract

In order to prepare the AN/GAQ-1 Alarm Set for Government Design Test and Evaluation (DTE), it was necessary to redesign the alignment mechanism, thoroughly test each system, and procure certain spare parts, including glower assemblies and chopper motors. Once these tasks were completed, the DTE was carried out. Technical personnel were provided to support the DTE. It is concluded that these tasks were successfully completed, since AN/GAQ-1 did undergo a successful DTE at DPG. It is recommended, however, that the entire electronic system design should be re-examined to take into account, great advances in semi-conductor technology since the existing system was designed. Addition of an alignment telescope also is recommended.
