Temperature-Altitude Tests for Missile System and Missile Subsystem

Abstract

This TOP provides guidance for determining the ability of equipment under test (the test item) to operate and the ability of the equipment materiel to withstand exposure to various temperature-altitude environments and/or withstand rapid pressure changes. The tests described herein include the probable extreme temperature-altitude conditions to which a missile system may be exposed. In addition, these tests will permit determination of materiel degradation, if any. The range of environmental conditions is not limited to those of the intended tactical emplacement of the equipment, but includes those which might be encountered during the item's life cycle including transportation and storage (without protective packaging).
