Abstract

This report presents an overview of recent activities within Industry and the Department of Defense on Automatic Test Equipment (ATE). A review of ad hoc projects both within the services and jointly with industry is presented beginning with the Electronic Test Equipment Task Force established in 1974. A brief description of the major ATE systems in use by the Navy and Air Force together with a more detailed description of existing and planned Army ATE is presented. The report concludes with the need to emphasize Built-In Test Equipment in future Army missile systems. (Author)
