Developmental Assist of the ADU-567/E Wing/Fin Guard Adapter With the ADU-514A/E Small Missile Adapter

Abstract

The ADU-567/E Wing/Fin Guard Adapter is designed to attach to the ADU-514/E Small Missile Adapter. It provides protection for AIM-9 Sidewinder Missile wings and fins when the missiles are transported in the shipboard environment on a MHU-191/M Munitions Transporter configured with an ADU-514/E. The introduction of the ADU-5l4A/E Small Missile Adapter requires that a compatibility study between it and the ADU-567/E be conducted. The ADU-567/E was not evaluated at the same time that the ADU-514A/E was originally evaluated due to lack of assets.
