RELIABILITY PROGRAMS FOR ''L'' SYSTEMS
The AFSC Program Structure assigns numbers and letters to the various programs in order to identify the efforts for management control. The fact that most of the command and control systems have the designator "L" affixed has prompted the reference to them as the "L" systems. In this paper the mission of "L" systems has been described, the complexity of the equipment indicated, and the importance of these systems to our national defense efforts pointed out. The efforts by the Electronic Systems Division to comply With the Air Force policy that a comprehensive reliability program be required for each contract to assure delivery of reliable systems and equipment to the Air Force inventory are described in considerable detail.
