This publication implements the integrity program requirements related to structural integrity in
Air Force Policy Directive (AFPD) 63-1/20-1, Integrated Life Cycle Management, and is
consistent with DoD Directive 5000.01, The Defense Acquisition System, and DoD Instruction
5000.02, Operation of the Defense Acquisition System. This instruction requires aircraft program
offices and lead/using commands to collaborate on Aircraft Structural Integrity Programs (ASIP)
that support mission readiness and airworthiness assurance through a series of programmatic
time-phased tasks during the development, acquisition, production, modification, and
sustainment of Air Force aircraft.
To ensure standardization, any organization supplementing this instruction must send the
implementing publication to Deputy Assistant Secretary of the Air Force for Acquisition
Integration (SAF/AQX) for review and coordination before publishing. Refer recommended
changes and questions about this publication to SAF/AQXA using the AF Form 847,
