14. ABSTRACT
This TOP provides guidance for determining the ability of equipment under test (the test item) to operate and the
ability of the equipment materiel to withstand exposure to various temperature-altitude environments and/or withstand
rapid pressure changes.
The tests described herein include the probable extreme temperature-altitude conditions to
which a missile system may be exposed. In addition, these tests will permit determination of materiel degradation, if
any. The range of environmental conditions is not limited to those of the intended tactical emplacement of the
equipment, but includes those which might be encountered during the item's life cycle including transportation and
storage (without protective packaging).
