Purpose: This article aims 1) to propose improvement directions of the certification by recognizing the quality management practices based on the analysis of the audit results of the military contractors and 2) to suggest some ideas on quality audit planning preparation to help the government quality assurance representatives. Methods: Based on the nonconformity report of the defense quality management system (DQMS) requirements, frequently occurring requirement components are found and summarized. Three hypothesis testings are executed to check whether the maturity levels of the quality management systems are influenced by the company size, weapon tye, and company type, regarding the nonconformity frequency as dependent variable. Results: Nonconformity occurs most frequently in the order of product realization, measurement analysis and improvement, management responsibility, resource management, and quality management system. Nonconformity reduces when the company size increases, for the guided weapons, and in the defense companies. Conclusion: Since small-sized companies are inferior to larger companies with respect to the DQMS maturity level, more support should be provided to these small-sized companies which produce military supplies.

Purpose: In this study, we propose the precision guided munitions verification methodology using the statistical analysis method has been proposed. and it can be applied to the precision guided munitions quality assurance work. Methods: This modeling is based on Failure Mode and Effects Analysis, Statistical Process Control, Defense Quality Managerment System, Production Readiness Review, Manufacturing Readiness Assesment and so on. Results: The Process Control Modeling that has the following procedures ; searching the critical to quality, statistical analysis by process, verify process. Moreover, the effectiveness of the methodology is verified by applying to the precision guided munitions. Conclusion: To achieve a analysis methods of statistical process control and verify process for precision guided munitions.

Purpose: In the private sector, many Customer Satisfaction Index Models have already been developed and are being applied in a variety of industries. In spite of continuously increasing of quality for military goods, measuring tools of Quality Satisfaction have not been developed yet. Method: In 2004, Defense Quality Assurance Agency and Seoul National University jointly developed MCSI(Military Customer Satisfaction Index) as a benchmark NCSI(National Customer Satisfaction Index), but it is limited to aply to military goods. We focused on product quality and developed MQSI(Military Quality Satisfaction Index) Model. Result: We propose a new Satisfaction Index Model(MQSI, Military Quality Satisfaction Index) that can be applied to military goods. Conclusion: In this study, configuration and variables of MQSI Model are described. Also the result of preliminary survey is briefly explained.

Purpose: A Study on the application of quality management system specification to production validation and audit in military airworthiness certification. Methods: Aircraft quality management system specification for quality assurance and production validation and audit requirements were examined to verify. Also, the system for domestic and foreign production certification were investigated. Results: Production validation and audit criteria for military aircraft by applying methods suggested Aircraft Certifications Systems Evaluation Program(ACSEP). ACSEP evaluation of the items, some items were complementary and not applied. Conclusion: As a way to ensure the safety of aircraft, confirm the correction of Production validation & audit criteria and rulemaking is necessary and how to manage for Critical Safety Item(CSI) is a need to improve.

For a maneuvering unmanned autonomous helicopter, it is necessary to design a proper controller of each flight mode. In this paper, overall helicopter dynamics is derived and hovering model is linearized and transformed into a state equation form. However, since it is difficult to obtain parameters of stability derivatives in the state equation directly, a linear control model is derived by time-domain parametric system identification method with real flight data of the model helicopter. Then, two different controllers - a linear feedback controller with proportional gains and a robust controller - are designed and their performance is compared. Both proposed controllers show outstanding results by computer simulation. These validated controllers can be used to autonomous flight controller of a real unmanned model helicopter.

Systems Engineering application focused on requirement definition and management for SURION System Development Project is described in this paper. To perform the development process effectively based on systems engineering processes; Requirements Definition, Design Review, Configuration Management, Quality Assurance, Data Management, are applied in this project. In this processes, the Stakeholder's Requirements are transferred to Specifications verified with design reviews, prototyping inspections, and integration tests. All engineering data, especially verification plan & results are recorded, and traced to each requirements of system specification in Surion database. Therefore, it could be assured that all requirements of specification are evaluated and verified successfully in Surion Project.

As the propellants decompose, they release nitrogen oxides which reduce the shelf life of the propellants by accelerating decomposition rate. The activated carbon fiber was used to extend the shelf life of the propellants that was stockpiled by the military. It is found that the activated carbon fiber adsorbs the nitrogen oxides which were produced by spontaneous reaction of the propellants. As a result, the activated carbon fiber extend the shelf life of the propellants by reducing decomposition rate of the propellants. If 20g of propellant store with 2g of activated carbon fiber, the shelf life of the propellants can be lengthened by 1.4 times.

A propellant mainly consisting of nitric ester including nitrocellulose, nitroglycerine and nitroguanidine is characteristic of being decomposed naturally. And this phenomenon is known as being affected mostly by its storing temperature. In this research, the effect of storing temperature on self life has been studied by measuring the contained quantity of residual stabilizer of propellant KM30A1, ignition powder and combustible cartridge case, which are parts of 155MM propelling charge K676 and K677; the method for the measurement is acceleration aging test, and decomposition reaction equation and Berthlot Equation were used for the calculation. The result of this research shows that propellant KM30A1, ignition powder, combustible cartridge case in order of decreasing self life, and the self life decreases to 1/3 as the temperature increases by $10^{\circ}C$.

It is well known that nitroglycerin(NG) may evaporate and migrate from the triple base propellant grains in storage. This physical process makes it double base environment to the CCC(combustible cartridge case) which is based on nitrocellulose(NC) without NG. Meanwhile, it is not appropriate to use diphenylamine(DPA) as a stabilizer for CCC in this double base environment because of incompatibility between DPA and NG. So we estimated the shelf life to study the effect of NG migration from propellant to CCC by following the procedures in the STANAG 4257. And we found out that CCC with ethylcentralite(ECL) has 7.5 years longer shelf life than with DPA, when NG migrates to CCC from triple base propellant grains.
