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.
