MIL-STD-1822A(USAF)
Management Center, a specialized organization such as the AFNWC or numerous other agencies.
3.16 Final Design Approval Report (FDAR).
The FDAR is a document prepared by the AMAC designer to demonstrate that the design of the AMAC system will meet the requirements of the nuclear weapon/nuclear weapon delivery vehicle interface specification. The FDAR may also contain a description of an aircraft's cockpit display, aircraft software logic, and the weapon release system.
3.17 Hardware.
Hardware is a generic term dealing with physical items, as distinguished from their capability or function, such as equipment, assemblies, subassemblies, components, and parts. In data automation, hardware is the physical equipment or devices forming a computer and peripheral components.
3.18 Independent Verification and Validation (IV&V).
IV&V is the analysis and test of computer software by an organization that is separate from the development contractor or organization. IV&V is a software evaluation process that includes both analysis and testing and extends throughout program development. "Verification" analyses software requirements, design, and code to detect program deficiencies before they can propagate into later development phases. "Validation" analyses and tests the final program to determine its compliance with requirements.
3.19 Joint Test Assembly (JTA)/Nuclear.
A configuration developed by the Department of Energy (DoE)/NNSA for use in the Joint Flight Test (JFT) program. It includes or combines the Joint Test Subassembly and DoE war reserve nuclear weapon components to approximate the appearance and physical characteristics of the war reserve configuration without the capability to produce a nuclear yield.
3.20 Lead Command.
The Major Command (MAJCOM) that serves as an operators' interface with the Single Manager for a weapon system as defined by AFPD 10-9. This term is not to be confused with that MAJCOM designated by HQ USAF as Office of Primary Responsibility (OPR) for authoring a requirements document (i.e., that MAJCOM would be the Using Command). In most cases, however, the MAJCOM designated by HQ USAF to sponsor a requirement will become the "Lead Command" for a weapon system.
3.21 Lead Project Officer (LPO).
An LPO is the AFNWC Project Officer responsible for coordinating the efforts of other project officers and Project Officers Group (POG) activities relating to nuclear weapon systems projects. Lead Project Officers/Project Officers Groups manage warheads/bombs, weapon systems, and AMAC activities.
3.22 Major Assembly Release (MAR).
The MAR is a statement prepared and signed by Sandia National Laboratory (SNL) and either Los Alamos National Laboratory (LANL) or Lawrence Livermore National Laboratory (LLNL) and approved and transmitted to DoD by DoE. It states that war reserve (WR) weapon material is
