National Insensitive Munitions Information System (NIMIS-II)
Abstract
The National Insensitive Munitions Information System (NIMIS-II) is a working and fielded analysis tool, specifically designed to provide the weapons development community with a centralized source of Insensitive Munitions (IM) test data and other related information. In order to avoid duplication of costly testing and to centralize the available IM test data, a national repository of these data was developed. This multi-service system comprises all IM testing and related work, to include such data as: Baseline tests, "for score" and "not for score", generic weapons development tests, as well as energetic materials test and qualification data. With a user base of over 500 previous and current users, this system has a proven track record of providing timely data to developers and managers on specific IM issues. It has served as a valuable tool to scientists, engineers, and managers throughout the weapon life cycle process. Serving as a repository of a broad data spectrum, NIMIS-II is a powerful analysis tool for those engaged in solving IM design problems. Distribution of the NIMIS-II is authorized to Government agencies and their Contractors.
