The Space and Missile Systems Center Remote Sensing Systems Directorate (SMC/RS) and its Industry Partners (L3 Technologies and Millennium Space Systems) recently completed the Direct Field Acoustic Test (DFAT) on the Space Based Infrared System (SBIRS) Wide Field of View (WFOV) program optical payload on Aug. 23. The joint Air Force and Industry team used an innovative new testing method to recreate the sound and vibrational pressures that a payload will be subject to during launch. This successful test verifies the WFOV payload will survive the rigours of launch.
