MIL-STD-1472G

Abstract

This standard establishes general human engineering design criteria for military systems, subsystems, equipment, and facilities. <br><u>Purpose.</u> The purpose of this standard is to present human engineering design criteria, principles, and practices to optimize system performance with full consideration of inherent human capabilities and limitations as part of the total system design trade space to more effectively integrate the human as part of the system, subsystems, equipment, and facilities to achieve mission success.<b><u>Intended Use:</u></b> This standard is intended for use as design criteria for military systems, equipment, and facilities, cited contractually in system specifications and elsewhere, and for use as a basis for structuring that part of human factors testing where design characteristics are assessed for purposes of acceptance. It is not intended for use to express binding requirements in conceptual and other early acquisition phases. The standard may be applied to traditional as well as non-developmental item acquisitions.<br>
