Abstract :
The Navy through PMA 260 awarded a contract to test the electro-optical (EO) weapon replaceable assemblies (WRAs) from the F/A-18 aircraft on the EO Consolidated Automated Support System (CASS) station. These WRAs had previously been tested on the Electro-Optical Test Set (EOTS). The test program sets (TPSs) were the first to be targeted to the production version of the EO CASS station. This paper discusses the methods utilized to accurately measure critical optical alignment parameters
