ADS-65-HDBK, AERONAUTICAL DESIGN STANDARD HANDBOOK: AIRWORTHINESS QUALIFICATION AND VERIFICATION GUIDANCE FOR ELECTRO-OPTICAL AND SENSOR SYSTEMS (17 FEB 2004)

ADS-65-HDBK, AERONAUTICAL DESIGN STANDARD HANDBOOK: AIRWORTHINESS QUALIFICATION AND VERIFICATION GUIDANCE FOR ELECTRO-OPTICAL AND SENSOR SYSTEMS (17 FEB 2004)., This document establishes the guidance for airworthiness qualification and discusses the methods of verification for Electro-Optical (EO) and Sensor Systems (SS), mission sensor group, and any other targeting/pilotage systems installed on U.S. Army aircraft. It also establishes the guidance for ancillary equipment, including displays, lasers and targeting systems. The sensors and system-related EO equipment are collectively referred to as a "sensor system" in this document. A combination of analyses and testing is used to verify the design, installation and operation of the sensor system and to support airworthiness qualification.
