The poor crash-impact performance of seats designed to current military specifications was revealed by the U.S. Army in the early 1960's. It was discovered that numerous seat occupants were being injured during moderate impacts because of inadequate upper torso restraint, inadequate seat strength, absence of any meaningful vertical crash-force attenuation, and inadequate testing criteria. Following extensive design and testing efforts, improved crashworthiness design and testing criteria were developed for Army aircraft seating systems.
