Use & Relationship
The Survivability Analysis Report presents the results of analyses performed to identify system (or subsystem/equipment) response to specified threat parameters and provides quantified measures of survivability.
a. Analysis results are used for: evaluating the survivability (vulnerability and susceptibility) posture of a system; design analyses and trade studies to evaluate effectiveness of design changes or techniques to harden or enhance the capability of the system; support higher-level (i.e., engagement or mission) analyses; and may be used as a basis for determining compliance with specification requirements.
b. The report may be used to assist in formulation of deployment and operational tactics, support functions, and to support the Live Fire Test and Evaluation (LFT&E) assessment of the system.
c. This Data Item Description (DID) may be applied to any contract and any program phase to acquire a survivability analysis. Although acquired primarily during system/major equipment full scale development programs, this analysis report is also applicable to development efforts during conceptual and demonstration/validation phases.
d. This DID contains the format, content, and intended use information for the data deliverable resulting from the work task described in the solicitation.
e. This DID supersedes DI-MISC-80564A.
