Preparation of the Sense and Destroy Armor Munition for the Year 2000.

Abstract

This report is one of a series being issued by the Inspector General, DoD, in accordance with an informal partnership with the Chief Information Officer, DoD, to monitor DoD efforts to address the year 2000 computing challenge. This report addresses year 2000 issues that pertain to the Sense and Destroy Armor munition. The overall audit objective was to determine whether planning and management are adequate to ensure that the Sense and Destroy Armor munition will operate effectively on January 1, 2000. The program office was actively planning and managing year 2000 issues. The program office initiated action to ensure that contracts and solicitations for the Sense and Destroy Armor munition include year 2000 compliance language. The algorithms in the Sense and Destroy Armor munition contain no date references, and the contractor warranted that each hardware, software, and firmware product delivered under the contract would be able to accurately process date and time data from, into, and between the 20th and 2lst centuries. No interface agreements were applicable. We are making no recommendations in this report.
