4. VERIFICATION
4.1 Classification of inspection.
The inspection requirements specified herein are
classified as follows:
a. First article inspection (see 4.4).
b. Production acceptance inspection (see 4.5).
4.2 Testing responsibility and facilities. Unless otherwise specified in the contract or
purchase order (see 6.2), the contractor is responsible for the performance of all the
requirements as specified herein. Unless otherwise specified in the contract or purchase
order (see 6.2), the contractor may use his own or any other facilities suitable for the
performance of the requirements specified herein, except ballistic tests (see 4.2.1), unless
disapproved by the Government. The Government reserves the right to perform or check
any of the inspections set forth in this specification where such inspections are deemed
necessary to assure supplies and services conform to prescribed requirements and to
determine the validity of the certifications.
4.2.1 Ballistic testing facility. Unless otherwise specified in the contract or purchase order

approved Government facility for ballistic testing (see 6.8) for first article or production
acceptance. Alternate ballistic testing facilities shall be considered as indicated in 6.8.
4.3 Lot. A lot shall consist of all production and ballistic test plates of the same melt of
steel, of the same thickness, having the same treatment, and heat treated with the same
thermal cycle in the same production furnace(s) in the same facility. When specified by the
procuring activity (see 4.3.1 and 6.2), production and ballistic test plates shall be allowed to
be heat treated separately. The test plate shall be heat treated in a production furnace.
4.3.1 Separately heat treated ballistic test plate. When the procuring activity allows a
ballistic test plate to be heat treated separately from the production plates it represents (see
4.3), it shall be so stated in the data (see 6.6).
4.4 First article inspection. When required (see 6.2) first article inspection, except as
otherwise indicated in this specification, shall utilize the same requirements and test
methods as the production acceptance inspection shown in 4.5.
