Force for acceptance concurrent with the delivery of the first article wing panels. The acceptance of the process specification does not relieve
18、the Contractor from assuring that the wing panels meet the required performane-e characteristics (see 3.6). This document shall be submitted to the Air 3.2.1.2 Brand names data sheets. All brand names, data sheets. and other required information shall be included ir1 the process specification. All d
19、eviations (during production) to the approved contractors process specification must have prior approval by the cognizant Air Force engineering agency. Such deviation shall be granted only if sufficient test data is submitted to assure the Air Force that no degradation of the target shall occur. Any
20、 documents containing proprietary information and labeled as such, will be handled in accordance with applicable directions for these documents. 3,2.2 Testing. Initial Contractor testing shall consist of peel strength tests. These tests shall determine the peel strength of the adhesive bond between
21、both the facing/core and facing/wood frame of the wing panels. Minimum peel strength requirements are specified in Table I with peel strength testing listed in Table II. Failure to achieve minimum peel strength requirements will preclude first article testing by the Air Force. 3.3 First article. The
22、 contractor shall submit four wing panels, in accordance with 64H30383 and 8121564. to the Air Force for first article testing.

23、will be consumed in testing. Ali fabrication and shipping expenses shall be borne by the prospective contractor. 6.3) See 4.3 and 3.3.1 First article tests. These tests shall consist of detailed inspection of the four wing panels submitted and such additional peel strength tests as deemed necessary
24、by the Air Force to assure that the panels meet specification requirements. 3.3.2 Acceptance or rejection. Acceptance or rejection of the first article panels shall be determined by the Air Force. The Air Force shall furnish a report to the contractor concerning the results of the first article test
25、s. The engineering decisions within the report will be final, unless otherwise stipulated. Production of targets shall not begin until both contractors process specification (see 3.2.1) and test report (see 4.3.8) have been accepted. 3.3.3 Prior approval. First article submission will not be require
26、d if the prospective contractor has built the TDU-lO/B and TDU-lOB/B Target within the preceding 24 months and submits a letter attesting there has been no change in materials, processes, or equipment used in fabrication of the target. 4 Provided by IHSNot for ResaleNo reproduction or networking per
