3.7.3 Stacking interface test (M3).The unloaded container, assembled in its normal shipping condition, shall be stacked on a like container and the stacking feature interface shall be examined. The top container shall then be removed. The container shall meet the requirements of 3.3.2.

3.7.4 Cornerwise drop tests (M4).The container, assembled in its erected shipping condition and loaded to the gross capacity of the applicable DL as called out in Table 1, shall be tested in accordance with MIL-STD-1660 (Appendix C). One set of diagonally opposite corners of the container shall be tested at a temperature extreme of -65°F. This test shall be repeated with the remaining set of diagonally opposite corners at a temperature extreme of 160°F. After testing, the container shall meet the requirements of 3.3.3.

3.7.5 Edgewise drop tests (M5).The container, assembled in its erected shipping condition and loaded to the gross capacity of the applicable DL as called out in Table 1, shall be tested in accordance with MIL-STD-1660 (Appendix B). Two adjacent edges of the container shall be tested at a temperature extreme of -65°F. This test shall be repeated with the remaining two adjacent edges at a temperature extreme of 160°F. After testing, the container shall meet the requirements of 3.3.3.

3.7.6 Impact tests (M6).The container, assembled in its erected shipping condition and loaded to the gross capacity of the applicable DL as called out in Table 1, shall be tested in accordance with MIL-STD-1660 (Appendix D). One side and one end of the container shall be tested at a temperature extreme of -65°F. This test shall be repeated with the remaining side and end at a temperature extreme 160°F. After testing, the container shall meet the requirements of 3.3.3.

3.7.7 Repetitive shock test (superimposed load) (M7).The container, assembled in its erected shipping condi-tion and loaded to the gross capacity of the applicable DL as called out in Table 1, shall be tested in accordance with MIL-STD-1660 (Appendix A). After testing, the container shall meet the requirements of 3.3.3.

3.7.8 Mechanical handling test (M8).The container, assembled in its erected shipping condition and loaded to the gross capacity of the applicable DL as called out in Table 1, shall be tested in accordance with MIL-STD- 1660 (Appendix G). After testing, the container shall meet the requirements of 3.3.3.

Each leg of the sling shall not be more than 40-inches long and must assume a horizontal sling angle of more than 30 degrees when under load. Alternate test methods may be used provided written approval is obtained from NSWCIHD Detachment Picatinny prior to initiating production. After testing, the container shall meet the requirements of 3.3.4. [The procuring and/or testing activity reserves the right to perform the interface fitting strength overload test to failure. Any first article which fails at a point at, or below the static design load (5 x gross capacity as called out in Table 1) shall be investigated as to the cause of failure. If failure is determined to be due to manufacturing nonconformance, the first article sample shall be considered unacceptable.]
