Question 5:

Can USAF waive requirement to send USAF CDRL 0004 ELIN A002 Radiographic Process Control Images as these images were required as part of USAF CR system approval. Offeror can note “CDRL 004 ELIN A002 Radiographic Process Control Images previously approved per USAF CR system approval” No, the radiographic image is a final OEM quality check of the system as delivered, and will be used as a baseline to determine future system performance. It is serialized by both CR system and CR process control device.
