Aircraft Infrared Suppression Devices

摘要

TOP (Test Operations Procedure) 7-3-523 describes general procedures fortechnical testing of infrared suppression devices under conditions typical of those for which they were designed. Ground and airborne infrared detection systems will be used to determine the capability of the suppression device to perform its intended purpose. Procedures include: inspection, installation, technical performance, effects of environmental conditions, logistic supportability, reliability, achieved availability, compatibility, safety, human factors, and personnel and training requirements. Data requirements and presentation are also described. Keywords: Optical countermeasures, Detectors, Aircraft, Infrared suppression devices. (jg)
