Study Notes
Flares and Munitions
- F-15 and F-16 aircraft utilize MJU-12 flare magazines.
- A complete cluster bomb unit (CBU) comprises small submunitions and a dispenser.
- A dummy round is a standard round with primer and propellant removed.
Gun Systems and Ammunition
- Rotary-based gun systems achieve higher rates of fire as all firing cycle steps occur simultaneously.
- Typical operating range for time fuzes is between 5 to 92 seconds.
- The GAU-8 30mm gun firing cycle involves a firing pin spring activating when the cocking pin is released.
Aircraft Systems and Components
- AN/ALE-50 decoys can be deployed by F-16 and B-1 aircraft.
- The AGM-65 missile is secured on the LAU-88 launcher by a shear pin.
- All GBU-12 models utilize MK-82 bombs as their warhead.
Corrosion Control and Equipment Handling
- Navel mine casings are painted gold for identification.
- Aluminum's oxide film enhances its resistance to mild corrosive conditions.
- Ammunition should be shielded from sunlight to avoid heat-induced ballistic impact.
Ground Equipment and Safety Protocols
- Corrosion control management prioritizes detection and treatment at the earliest stage.
- During concurrent servicing, a concurrent servicing supervisor is unnecessary if fueling is not conducted.
- Air-cooled, 25.2-horsepower diesel engines power MHU-83 lift trucks.
Weight and Capacity Specifications
- The MJ-1 lift truck with aluminum rollers has a lifting capacity of 3,000 pounds.
- The maximum lift height of the mechanical ram assembly (MRA) is 83 inches.
- MHU-110/M trailers can accommodate 24 trolleys and 48 chocks for various munitions.
Operational Procedures
- Each operation of the A/M32A-86 generator set requires checks on three instrument/control panels.
- Before connecting high-pressure service hoses, ensure the system is not pressurized.
- Use "Y" stands to temporarily support munitions, whereas load binders secure loads to the table.
Safe Loading Practices
- A/M32A-95 fuel tanks should not exceed half full due to fuel expansion properties.
- The parking brake on the MHU-83 is set using a locking valve and service brake pedal.
- The FL-1D floodlight needs a 10-15 minute cooldown period before restarting.
Miscellaneous Facts
- High-explosive bombs are categorized based on their kill mechanism or designed use.
- Built-in test units in rail launchers monitor proper voltage tolerances.
- AIM-9 L/M missile guidance canards are controlled electrically, and pitch valves on bomb racks are adjusted manually.
Towing and Aircraft Maintenance
- A tow bar's travel for MHU-204/M and MHU-196/M lift trailers is limited to 45 degrees.
- The air conditioner A/M32C-10 should be positioned 15-30 feet away from aircraft for optimal performance.
- During loading, serviceability of munitions loading stations is evaluated in the aircraft preparation step.
Environmental Considerations
- General-purpose bombs typically detonate within two to four minutes after exposure to flames.
- Operators must verify fluid levels in lubrication systems via sight glasses during maintenance checks.
- Avoid exceeding 30 psi during cleaning equipment or work areas to maintain safety.
Emergency Protocols
- Flush eyes with water and seek medical attention if hydraulic fluid contacts them during equipment operations.
- Documentation of bomb markings should include lot numbers and serial numbers in case of malfunctions.
- Safety measures require two operators present during the use of the -10 air conditioner for safe operation.
Instrumentation and Testing
- Fault isolation systems utilize built-in tests to identify issues down to a subsystem level.
- The M240 machine gun cycle of operation consists of eight distinct steps.
- The mechanical ram assembly (MRA) has a lifting capacity of 5,000 pounds, ensuring heavy-duty operation capabilities.
