M86 Pursuit Deterrent Munition Battery Preactivation Analysis

Abstract

In early 1990, it was discovered that the recently redesigned pursuit deterrent munition (PDM) batteries were preactivating during high temperature (+160 degrees F) conditioning. A test plan was drafted and testing was performed to better understand battery preactivation and its effects upon the system operation of PDM.
