Some dynamic response environmental measurements of various tactical weapons

Pertinent results of several environmental dynamic measurement programs for widely diverse types of tactical weapons are reported. Spectra are included for the SLUFAE weapon mounted on a tracked vehicle, the ASROC missile mounted within launcher cells and magazines of various classes of ships, the FAE-II and GATOR free-fall weapons captive-flown on A-7 and AV-8 aircraft, the Condor weapon captive-flown on an A-6 aircraft, and the MAD-FAE weapon dispenser system suspended beneath a CH-53 helicopter. The character of the dynamic environments during weapon deployment is briefly discussed.
