MIL-HDBK-516C decides whether a US military air system is airworthy. CertProve turns your own design data into the compliance record and the safety case that answer it
What this regime costs you today
Every criterion is answered, tailored with a reason, or open. There is no fourth state, and the record never invents one.
Your tailored criteria set is the contract
Agreed once, lived with for years. What you tailored out is as load bearing as what you kept.
The evidence is tracked by hand
Hundreds of criteria in spreadsheets, re-checked by people every time the design moves.
A claim is not a showing
The authority asks what stands behind it. Nothing behind it is a finding, and findings hold the clearance.
Every change reopens the argument
A new store, a new sensor, a new software load, and a team rediscovers what it touched.
Whatever you fly, it has to be proven
One handbook reaches the whole air system, from the airframe to what hangs off it
Fighter
Bomber
Airlifter
Tanker
Attack rotorcraft
Tiltrotor
Collaborative combat
Long endurance
Hypersonic
Air launched stores
