Monitoring the quality of armament and military equipment in exploitation as the foundation for successful development of new systems

Abstract

Quality of armament and equipment is one of the most significant factors in maintaining the combat readiness of units of the Yugoslav Army. In the article have been analysed failures of systems for the purpose of attainment of foundation for upgraded designing of similar systems, with the application of the theory of reliability. By systemic monitoring the systems of armament and military equipment in their exploitation, and by analysing the observed malfunctions and factors that influence their occurrence can be created a substantial data basis. By processing these data, with the application of the theory of reliability, can be obtained parameters necessary for designing the new and maintenance of existing systems.
