FOREWORD
1. This standard is approved for use by all Departments and Agencies of the Department of
Defense.
2. Comments, suggestions, or questions on this document should be addressed to
ASC/ENOI, 2530 Loop Road W, Wright-Patterson AFB OH 45433-7101, or emailed to
Engineering.Standards@wpafb.af.mil.
Since contact information can change, you may want to
verify the currency of this address information using the ASSIST Online database at
http://assist.daps.dla.mil/.
3. The stated interface requirements are considered necessary to provide reasonable confidence
that a particular subsystem or equipment complying with these requirements will function within
their designated design tolerances when operating in their intended electromagnetic environment
(EME). The procuring activity should consider tailoring the individual requirements to be more
or less severe based on the design features of the intended platform and its mission in concert
with personnel knowledgeable about electromagnetic compatibility (EMC) issues affecting
platform integration.
4. An appendix is included which provides the rationale and background for each requirement
and verification section.
5. A committee consisting of representatives of the Army, Air Force, Navy, other DoD agencies,
and industry prepared this document.
