This standard specifies the verification requirements and verification methods for strength, stiffness, durability and damage tolerance necessary for the structural integrity of military aircraft composite materials. This standard applies to the ordering, design and verification of composite structures for power-driven manned military aircraft with fixed wings or variable swept wings; it also applies to similar structures on manned military helicopters and vertical/short-moment take-off and landing aircraft. Ordering, design and verification of structural properties of composite structures.
