4.3 Examination.
4.3.1 Visual. The transparent armor shall be visually examined for compliance with the requirements for
serviceability (see 3.8).
4.3.2 Marking of test samples. Verify the presence of the required markings.
4.4 Test methods (except ballistics). Transparent armor shall be tested in accordance with the test methods in
table II.

4.5 Ballistic acceptance test and procedure. The ballistic acceptance test of actual panels and the ballistic test
procedure shall be conducted on a recurring basis in accordance with the ballistic test procedures outlined in
MIL-STD-662. The contractor shall supply (for each three months of transparent armor fabrication) two test
samples when the ballistic testing criteria is pass/fail, and up to ten samples (actual number of samples to be
agreed upon by procuring activity and supplier) shall be required for V50 ballistic testing. Ballistic acceptance
testing shall be conducted at a Government approved facility to show conformance to the ballistic requirements
in 3.4. The test samples shall be adequately identified as to contractor, contract number, manufacturer, date of
manufacture, lot number, and architecture (or composition). The testing facility shall report raw data (a complete
within limits description of what is being tested, including the method of confinement), velocities, ballistic limit,
penetration observation, areal density, and thickness for each test sample.
5. PACKAGING
5.l Packaging. For acquisition purposes, the packaging requirements shall be as specified in the contract or order
(see 6.2). When actual packaging of materiel is to be performed by DoD personnel, these personnel need to
contact the responsible packaging activity to ascertain requisite packaging requirements. Packaging requirements
are maintained by the Inventory Control Point's packaging activity within the Military Department or Defense
Agency, or within the Military Department's System Command. Packaging data retrieval is available from the
managing Military Department's or Defense Agency's automated packaging files, CD-ROM products, or by
contacting the responsible packaging activity.
