SCOPE
This Specification Development Document (SDD) provides the guidance, requirements and interface configuration definitions for development of the Engine Model Specification (EMS) for the Improved Turbine Engine. The specific guidance for using this document in the development of the Engine Model Specification (EMS) is contained in paragraph 6.8. Note that within this document the contractor is given directions on what will be expected throughout the program. This Statement of Work language should not be used in the contractor's EMS; however, the contractor may use this information to help plan for verification documentation. Additionally, there are placeholders for specific engine design parameters (e.g. “contractor to insert”). The contractor will insert the required data prior to submission of their original EMS as well as language that may appear to be work statements, but are required to adequately describe the requirement. Engine parameters, characteristics and requirements will be stated as definitively as possible in the EMS. The contractor should include the requirements of this document, along with the requirements defined in the System Requirements Document (SRD), in the development of the EMS. The US Army retains final judgment authority upon submittal of applicable test plan, analysis report or design review. The EMS will establish engine requirements, their satisfactory completion and acceptance for Preliminary Flight Rating (PFR), Qualification Rating (QT), and Operational Capability Release (OCR) of the product engine.
Metric Requirements Not Applicable.
Deviations Any projected design for a given application which will result in improved system performance, reduced lifecycle cost, or reduced development cost through deviation from this SDD, or where the requirements of this SDD result in compromise in operational capability, will not be considered for approval unless brought to the attention of the Using Service in writing.
APPLICABLE DOCUMENTS
General The documents listed in this section are specified in sections 3, 4, or 5 of this SDD. This section does not include documents cited in other sections of this SDD or recommended for additional information or as examples. While every effort has been made to ensure the completeness of this list, document users are cautioned that they must meet all specified requirements of documents cited in sections 3, 4, or 5 of this SDD, whether or not they are listed.
