The subject of the research was a catastrophic recorder of the S2-3a system for recording flight parameters, developed at the Air Force Institute of Technology. The article discusses tests of catastrophic recorders’ resilience to factors present at aircraft accidents. The document specifying the requirements for catastrophic recorders of flight parameters includes the defence standard: NO-16-A200, and the European standard: EuroCAE ED-112. According to NO-16-A200 and ED-112 standards, the protective unit should be resistant to: g-forces existing during crash, puncture, compression, fire, underwater pressure and aggressive liquids.
