MIL-T-12459E
4.1.1 Responsibility for compliance. All items must meet all
requirements of sections 3 and 5. The inspection set forth in this
specification shall become a part of the contractor's overall inspection
system or quality program. The absence of any inspection requirements in the
specification shall not relieve the contractor of the responsibility of
assuring that all products or supplies submitted to the Government for
acceptance comply with all requirements of the contract. Sampling in quality
conformance does not authorize submission of known defective material, either
indicated or actual, nor does it commit the Government to acceptance of
defective material.
4.1.2 Inspection equipment. Unless otherwise specified in the contract
(see 6.2), the contractor is responsible for the provision and maintenance of
all inspection equipment necessary to assure that supplies and services
conform to contract requirements. Inspection equipment must be capable of
repetitive measurements to an accuracy of 10% of the measurement tolerance.
Calibration of inspection equipment shall be in accordance with
MIL-STD-45662.
4.2 Classification of inspections:
a.
First article inspection (see 4.4).
b.
Quality conformance inspections (see 4.5).
1. Examination (see 4.5.2).
2. Tests (see 4.5.3).
c.
Control tests (see 4.6).
4.3 Inspection conditions. Unless otherwise specified (see 6.2), all
inspections shall be performed in accordance with the test conditions
specified herein.
4.4 First article inspection. Unless otherwise specified (see 6.2), the
Government shall select tires produced under the production contract (see
4.4.1) for first article inspection. First article tires shall be inspected
as specified in table III. Approval of the first article sample by the
Government shall not relieve the contractor of his obligation to supply tires
that are fully representative of those inspected as a first article sample.
Any changes or deviation of the production units from the first article
sample shall be subject to the approval of the contracting officer.
