Certification Test CNU-399/E Maverick Missile Container,

Abstract

HQ Aeronautical Systems Division (ASD/TAM), Wright-Patterson AFB, OH 45433-5999 requested assistance from the Air Force Packaging Evaluation Agency (AFPEA) to conduct certification testing on a new Maverick missile container. The prototype container was fabricated by a contractor and shipped to AFPEA for testing. The purpose of this project was to determine if the prototype container CNU-399/E will protect its contents, the AGM-65A/B/C/D/E/F All-UP-Round (AUR) Maverick Missile and components during worldwide shipments in the public domain. The container was designed to limit the transmission of shocks to its contents at a maximum of 40Gs resultant force and provide environmental protection to its contents. Keywords: leaks; repetitive shock; rough handling; hoisting strength; puncture.
