Abstract :
The authors outline a novel mean-time-to-repair (MTTR) prediction technique which is a modification of MIL-HDBK-472 procedure V. The modifications directly relate testability characteristics to maintainability parameters and introduce the influence that different maintenance and repair philosophies have on MTTR. A computerized version of this technique is also discussed. Future plans include proposing this technique for inclusion in one of the next revisions of MIL-HDBK-472
