The U.S. Army Defense Ammunition Center and School (USADACS), Validation Engineering Division (SMCAC-DEV), was tasked by the Office of the Project Manager, Ammunition Logistics (PM-AMMOLOG) to conduct a MIL-STD-209H, Military Standard Slinging and Tiedown Provisions for Lifting and Tying Down Military Equipment, pull test on the 2.75-inch rocket pallet as part of the helicopter External Aerial Transportation (EAT) certification process. As prescribed by MIL-STD-209H, the pallet was statically pulled to 7,700-pounds for a period of 90 seconds utilizing a 4-legged sling. At the completion of the test, the pallet was inspected and determined to have sustained no permanent deformation as a result of the static load. Having successfully passed MIL-STD-209H, the 2.75-inch rocket pallet was then shipped to U.S. Army Combat Systems Test Activity (USACSTA) where helicopter flight tests were conducted.
