MIL-STD-1798 Mechanical Equipment And Subsystems Integrity ProgramThe purpose of this standard is to describe the general process to achieve and maintain the physical and functional integrity of the mechanical elements of aircraft systems. The goal of this integrity program is to achieve the desired level of safety and aircraft availability at the most economic cost across the life cycle of the weapon system. This standard allows the process to be tailored in a competitive environment to meet specific equipment, subsystem, and/or system requirements. The Mechanical Equipment and Subsystems Integrity Program MECSIP is implemented in the planning process and continued until retirement of the system.

FOREWORD

1. This standard is approved for use by all Departments and Agencies of the Department of

Defense.

2. The purpose of this standard is to establish programmatic tasks for the development, acquisition, modification, operation, and sustainment of the mechanical elements of airborne, support, and training systems. The Mechanical Equipment and Subsystems Integrity Program (MECSIP) consists of a series of disciplined, time-phased actions which, when applied in accordance with this standard, will help ensure the continued operational safety, suitability, and effectiveness of the mechanical systems throughout all phases of the weapon system life.
