Conversion of MIL-T-28800 to a performance specification

MIL-T-28800 is a specification for the environmental requirements or test equipment. Authorization was obtained to convert MIL-T-28800 to a performance specification and reissue it as MIL-PRF-28800F to conform with the guidance provided for Acquisition Reform. The conversion was completed in June 1996. Major aspects of the conversion are discussed including the replacement of Military specification references with commercial and international standards references.
