3.35 Nuclear Safety Cross-Check Analysis (NSCCA).
Nuclear critical software evaluation is accomplished by NSCCA or IV&V. The NSCCA (like the IV&V) is performed by an organization technically, managerially, and financially independent of the developer. The purpose of NSCCA is to ensure the program cannot perform in any way that could contribute to a nuclear safety violation. Analysis and testing focus on ensuring that nuclear safety critical functions are performed correctly and that the program does not perform any unintended functions that could violate nuclear safety.
3.36 Nuclear Safety Design Certification Letter.
A letter issued by Air Force Safety Center (AFSEC) to notify the AFNWC's Certification
Manager that all nuclear safety design certification actions have been completed.
3.37 Nuclear Surety.
All functions and activities to ensure Air Force nuclear systems are designed, developed, operated, maintained, transported, and controlled to provide maximum safety to the public and operating personnel while protecting the environment and maintaining reliability to support mission accomplishment.
3.38 Nuclear Weapon.
A nuclear weapon is a device in which an explosion results from energy (equivalent to four (4) pounds or greater of TNT) being released by reactions involving atomic nuclei; reactions may be either by fission, fusion, or both.
3.39 Nuclear Weapon System.
A nuclear weapon system includes: (1) a nuclear weapon and a means for delivering it to the target, (2) associated support equipment, (3) facilities, (4) procedures, (5) personnel, and (6) any vehicles peculiar to the system used for weapon transport.
3.40 Operational Certification.
This occurs when the Lead Command/Using Command qualifies its personnel to perform the mission, certifies them in the Personnel Reliability Program (PRP), trains them in nuclear surety and assigns a Ready rating on an Initial Nuclear Surety Inspection (INSI) or a Satisfactory rating for a NSI. Notification of completion of all Operational Certification requirements identified in the Certification Requirements Plan is made to the AFNWC's Certification Management Organization by the MAJCOM via the Operational Certification Letter (or by signing the CRP when no operational certification impacts exist).
3.41 Operational Plan Data Document (OPDD).
The OPDD is a document that describes normal nuclear weapon system operations in the stockpile-to-target sequence. An OPDD is a source document, used to prepare a Technical Nuclear Safety Analysis (TNSA), which relays to the Nuclear Weapons Safety Study Group
