Improved Packaging for the LN-31 Inertial Measurement Unit (F-15 Aircraft),

Abstract

The investigation of the current packaging for the F-15 Inertial Measurement Unit (LN-31 IMU) revealed that the pack will provide adequate shock and vibration protection for the item; however, it was anticipated that a less expensive pack could be developed at a cost savings of approximately 25% (PTPT Report 79-3, Packaging and Handling Analysis of the LN-31, 683420-14, Inertial Measurement Unit). A new improved pack was developed and evaluated. The estimated cost savings is 20% and the potential implementation date is scheduled for June 1980. (Author)
