DI-NUOR-81405B, DATA ITEM DESCRIPTION (DID): AIRCRAFT NUCLEAR SAFETY ANALYSIS REPORT (NSAR) (17-FEB-2015)
DI-NUOR-81405B, DATA ITEM DESCRIPTION (DID): AIRCRAFT NUCLEAR SAFETY ANALYSIS REPORT (NSAR) (17-FEB-2015)., The Aircraft NSAR is a comprehensive assessment of the safety design
features and operational procedures of a nuclear weapon component, assembly, or system.
The analyses performed and presented in the Aircraft NSAR detail the weapon system
compliance with the Department of Defense (DoD) nuclear weapon system safety standards
and Air Force Criteria published in Air Force 91 series Instructions and Manuals. The Aircraft
NSAR is the integrating document that ties together all of the other NSAR’s performed by
associate contractors or subcontractors for their particular/unique sections of a complex aircraft
weapons system. The Aircraft NSAR combines in one document an integrated comprehensive
nuclear safety analysis for the complete aircraft weapon system. The system Program
Office/Single Manager is responsible for the NSAR development but it is typically provided by
the lead or prime contractor. The Aircraft NSAR is a primary source of input to the nuclear
safety design certification process of weapon systems which ensures maximum safety
consistent with operational requirements.
