DEF STAN 00-35/ISSUE 4 (18 SEPT 2006), ENVIRONMENTAL HANDBOOK FOR DEFENCE MATERIEL, PART 3 ENVIRONMENTAL TEXT METHODS
DEFENCE STANDARD 00-35/ISSUE 4 (18 SEPT 2006), ENVIRONMENTAL HANDBOOK FOR DEFENCE MATERIEL, PART 3 ENVIRONMENTAL TEXT METHODS. This Defence Standard contains environmental descriptions, a range of tests procedures and default test severities representing conditions which may be encountered during the life of defence materiel. The environmental descriptions can be used to aid the selection of test methods and test severities to simulate the service, storage and transportation environments for the materiel. The results of trials incorporating appropriate test from this standard will provide supporting evidence to be used in the assessment of the ability of Defence materiel to meet the specified environmental requirements.

DEF STAN 00-43 (PART 1)/1, RELIABILITY AND MAINTAINABILITY ASSURANCE ACTIVITY PART 1: IN-SERVICE RELIABILITY DEMONSTRATIONS
DEF STAN 00-43 (PART 1)/1, RELIABILITY AND MAINTAINABILITY ASSURANCE ACTIVITY PART 1: IN-SERVICE RELIABILITY DEMONSTRATIONS. The sections in this Part of the Defence Standard describe the purpose, rationale and procedures for in-Service reliability demonstrations (ISRDs). The purpose of an ISRD is to demonstrate compliance with specified reliability requirements of an equipment or system. An ISRD is a final test to provide motivation and incentive to the contractor to ensure that the reliability programme is vigorously pursued. It supplements rather than replaces other activities in the reliability programme. However, an ISRD will not be appropriate for the purchase of every system, platform or equipment. Experience from completed ISRDs guidance for both MOD and industry.

DEF STAN 00-44 (Part 1)/Issue 2 RELIABILITY AND MAINTAINABILITY DATA COLLECTION AND CLASSIFICATION PART 1: MAINTENANCE DATA & DEFECT REPORTING IN THE ROYAL NAVY, THE ARMY AND THE ROYAL AIR FORCE. This Part of the Defence Standard describes briefly the general maintenance data and defect/failure/fault reporting systems used by the three Services for the majority of their technical equipments. It does not include a description of procedures peculiar to special areas such as nuclear power plants, certain explosives stores, etc. However, it does include references to documents which describe procedures for such equipments.

DEF STAN 00-44 (Part 2)/Issue 1 RELIABILITY AND MAINTAINABILITY DATA COLLECTION AND CLASSIFICATION PART 2: DATA CLASSIFICATION AND INCIDENT SENTENCING - GENERAL. This Part of the Standard describes, in general, the common aspects of data classification and incident sentencing to be used within the MOD and on MOD contracts. 1.2 Some guidance is given on the data reporting necessary to support data classification and incident sentencing. The classifications (categories) noted in Def Stan 00-40 (Part 1) are defined. 1.3 Guidance is given on incident sentencing and the use of a summary code. The role of the Incident Sentencing Committee (ISC) within the R&M Panel system is described. 1.4 Where standard methods for incident sentencing have been adopted they are detailed in relevant Parts of the Standard and are available to the Directorate General Defence Contracts (DGDC) and other MOD departments. This Part of the Standard can thus be used in contracting for R&M.

Def Stan 02-51 (NES 51), /ISSUE 1 PUBLICATION DATE 1 APRIL 2000, TYPE B SUPPORT PROCEDURES
Defence Standard 02-51 (NES 51)/ISSUE 1 PUBLICATION DATE 1 APRIL 2000, TYPE B SUPPORT PROCEDURES. 'Type B Support' is a system of support adopted for Vessel-fit Platform items in vessels designed and built for MOD to (mainly) commercial standards and built in very short time scales relative to major warships. It is based upon the Shipbuilder's recommendations, which are to follow commercial maintenance practices, with minimal peculiar-to-MOD requirements. Vessels allocated Type B Support include some manned by the RN, Army and RAF, but some are manned by (civilian) members of the RMAS or the RFA. Type B Support will usually be initiated by placing a Support Contract on the Vessel Builder in association with the Vessel (Design and) Build Contract.

DEF STAN 05-125/ISSUE 2 (JAN 1990), TECHNICAL PROCEDURES FOR POST-DESIGN SERVICES (ELECTRONICS)
DEFENCE STANDARD 05-125/ISSUE 2 (JAN 1990), TECHNICAL PROCEDURES FOR POST-DESIGN SERVICES (ELECTRONICS). At the completion of development,Post Design Services (PDS) are necessary to ensure that modifications and minor design alterations are properly appraised and, where approved, implemented . These changes may result from faults and inadequacies during the equipment's Service life. The PDS process is concerned with the re-design, redevelopment and engineering necessary for preserving the equipment's operational capability, reliability and maintainability as laid down in the various specifications . PDS will not embrace major redesign to improve performance to meet a new threat; for this a new Staff Requirement and a fresh project would be required.

DEFENSE STANDARD 21-24 (NES 1024)DATA TRANSMISSION - DIRECT MEMORY ACCESS INTERFACE STANDARD - PART 1 - THE SOFTWARE INTERFACE (ISSUE 2 - 15 SEPT 2000). NES 1024, 1026, and 1028 cover the technical requirements for interfacing to current warship combat systems using the CSH or TWSH. For equipment that will interface to these systems the standards are Category 1, mandatory, but for systems and equipment relating only to new platforms the standards should be considered as Category 2. This NES defines a standard interface between computers and intelligent peripherals which implement the protocols of a digital communications system such as a data highway, local area network or point-to-point system. The standard embraces both an electrical and a software interface.
