4.4.1. NH&S Description
Definitions:
· Hardness, as used in this document, refers to nuclear hardness. Nuclear hardness is the ability of a system or any of its elements to withstand exposure to one or more effects of a hostile nuclear environment.
· Survivability is the probability of withstanding an enemy attack and is a function of enemy reliability, accuracy, and weapon yield; coupled with the hardness of our ground facilities and missiles.
The Government is responsible for ensuring modifications, maintenance actions, and aging do not degrade existing hardness unless coordinated decisions are made to allow such degradation after system impact (including survivability), cost, and program schedule considerations have been made. Hardness surveillance and assessment activities are necessary to monitor the status of weapon system survivability, track hardness performance trends, and to detect degradation.
The objective of the Nuclear Hardness and Survivability (NH&S) process is to sustain the capability of the weapon system to operate and carry out its mission in a nuclear environment in accordance with the list of governing documents and specifications listed in Table 1 below. This capability is expressed in terms of the hardness levels and distributions of various components and subsystems. This process is carried out at all levels throughout the force, from parts procurements, through Configuration Items (CI) and major subsystems, up to and including the total weapon system.
The NH&S assessment process for all IPTs is summarized in the figure below:
This process contains the essential steps to identify IPT NH&S impacts and risks to the weapon system. The process interfaces with Drawings, Engineering Orders (EOs), Technical Orders (TOs), Time Change Technical Orders (TCTOs), Parts and Materials Support, and Government/contractor conducted simulated environment tests. The NH&S process consists of problem confirmation, metric estimation, consequence analysis, and reporting. Problem resolution is worked through applicable sustainment, parts and materials support, and program processes.
