Functioning System test procedures document being Allied Ordnance Publication 20 (AOP-20). In addition, SGA has agreed on STANAG 4157, Edition 2, Safety, Arming and Functioning Systems: Test Requirements for Assessment of Safety and Suitability for Service, which is based on the principles of AOP-15, Safety and Suitability for Service of Munitions and Explosives. Both NATO and the DoD Fuze Engineering Standardization Working Group (FESWG) have agreed that, given their similar objectives, MIL-STD-331 and AOP-20 will in the future be published as one document. Background information on the objectives and requirements of STANAG 4157 is provided below to allow MIL-STD-331 users to understand and apply the principles of S3 assessment in their use of this publication. 1.2.1.1 STANAG 4157.

nd document that the fuzing system is safe and performs as intended in all expected service environments. In the U.S., each service has a Board that reviews the compliance of fuzing and ignition safety devices with the requirements of MIL-STD-1316, MIL-STD-1901, MIL-STD-1911, and the result of tests conducted in accordance with the procedures described in MIL-STD-331. Guidance on qualification testing and quantities can be found in Joint Ordnance Test Procedure (JOTP)-052 available on https://assist.dla.mil/online/start/index.cfm 1.2.1 NATO. A similar process has been agreed by NATO’s AC/326 SGA, with the design safety requirements standards being STANAG 4187, STANAG 4368, STANAG 4497 and the Safety, Arming and Functioning System test procedures document being Allied Ordnance Publication 2
