[QUOTE="Trickymissfit, post: 540737, member: 25383"] I came out of a TACOM plant, and milspec has little to do with the processes involved. The initial contract sets up the process the parts are to be made in as well as conform to. That's why you see all those government folks in there acting like they have the slightest idea what is going on (98% don't). To make a change in the process involves more red tape than can ever be imagined, and 99% of the time the folks making the final say have no idea what you are talking about. But trust me a major factor in the milspec doctrine is part interchangability, and is rarely violated (but it has in the past). The single worst example I can think of is the U2 spyplane. Even the sheetmetal panels were one up stuff. In a tank the onlything that is not milspec is the turret mount and gun mount, as each unit is fit to the turret and the hull. With rifles and shot guns one needs only to look at the basic M16 and 12 gauge shotgun. Virtually anything can be removed from one gun and installed on another. Jet engines are another story, and usually held to a "built unit spec" for a good reason. Yet the engine will always bolt right into every airframe from that block number glt [/QUOTE]
