This document contains design, performance, and certification test requirements for range safety flight termination system command destruct receiver/decoders. It replaces Range Commanders Council (RCC) Range Safety Group (RSG) Document 313-72. Flight termination is an emergency action taken by Range Safety for the protection of life and property when a vehicle violates established safety criteria. This action circumvents the vehicle's normal control modes and ends its power and/or controlled flight. Flight termination procedures may include any one or a combination of the following: (a) Complete vehicle destruction by explosive means; (b) Aerodynamic disruption of the flight mechanism; (c) Deployment of high drag devices; (d) Fuel cut-off to the combustion chambers of ignited motors; (e) Inhibit ignition of unburned motors; and (f) Other special actions dictated by the vehicle configuration or special problems. These actions may be activated by manual, computerized and/or automated modes. (Author)
