1.0 INTRODUCTION

The work described herein is to procure two (2) commercial off the shelf Dual Channel Pulse Generator, HP 8160A Compatible ECCN 3A992.a Part Number GP1552AH-M3. These specs shall be used to procure, assemble, test, install, start up, qualify and document a Pulse Generator per the requirements that are contained in this document. The Pulse Generator will be used to align, calibrate, and validate test stands. The Pulse Generator is a critical component of the United

States Air Force (USAF), Minuteman III Intercontinental Ballistic Missile (ICBM) Reentry

Vehicle support equipment. The Pulse Generators currently being used are failing to calibrate and are failing to perform as required. Two new Pulse Generators will be procured and used in

Bay K of Building 100 at Hill Air Force Base, Clearfield, Utah.
