This manual implements Department of Defense Directive (DoDD) 3100.10, Space Policy, DoDD 3200.11, Major Range and Test Facility Base, DoDD 3230.3, DoD Support for Commercial Space Launch Activities, AFPD 91-1, Nuclear Weapons and Systems Surety, AFPD 91-2, Safety Programs, AFPD 63-12, Assurance of Operational Safety, Suitability, and Effectiveness, AFI 91-202, The US Air Force Mishap Prevention Program (AFSPC Sup.1) and the Memorandum of Agreement between the Department of the Air Force and the Federal Aviation Administration on Safety for Space Transporta- tion and Range Activities.This volume incorporates information previously found in Eastern and Western Range 127-1, Chapter 2, Flight Analysis. It establishes the requirements for flight safety for vehicles launched and operations conducted from the Air Force Space Command (AFSPC) ranges, including the Eastern Range (ER) and Western Range (WR). The volume includes requirements for the following pro- grams: ballistic missiles and space vehicles; cruise missiles and remotely piloted vehicles; small unguided rockets or probe vehicles; aerostats or balloons systems; projectiles, torpedoes, and non-propulsive air-dropped bodies; air-launched vehicles; intended support plans for aircraft and ships; directed energy systems; and the launch of large nuclear systems into space. Flight Safety Requirements approval is a necessary prerequisite for conducting operations covered by this volume. By itself, Flight Safety Require- ments approval does not constitute permission to conduct an operation. Unless specifically noted in this volume, the term Range Safety refers to the Operations Support and Flight Safety Requirements groups at the ER and WR.
