The RFID system is a technology enabler for the Health Monitoring Program for the Evolved Sea Sparrow Missile.
The monitoring will collect temperature, humidity, shock and vibration data from the deployed RFID tools. …
… “This RFID program will provide a high-quality accounting system that could save taxpayer dollars in maintenance costs on tactical missiles.
Tracking missiles and any critical armament can only be accomplished with a very high degree of physics expertise for two reasons:
- To get highly accurate results in very austere conditions2.
- To protect against accidental detonation by meeting stringent Hazards of Electromagnetic Radiation to Ordnance HERO compliance “ …
