Storage Reliability of Missile Materiel Program. Igniters and Safe and Arm Device Analysis.

Abstract

This report summarizes analyses on the non-operating reliability of missile igniters and safe and arm devices. From the data analyzed aging is indicated for these devices after long term storage. The aging mechanisms and trends are given together with a reliability prediction model. This information is part of a research program being conducted by the U. S. Army Missile Command, Redstone Arsenal, Alabama. The objective of this program is the development of non-operating (storage) reliability prediction and assurance techniques for missile materiel.
