Abstract
The Special Projects Committee of the St. Louis Chapter, S.A.W.E. undertook to determine the present state of the art concerning weight control on items designed by vendors to airframe manufacturers specifications. This was accomplished by a survey questionnaire that was sent to 125 vendors and 50 airframe manufacturers. With the present trend toward the weapons system design concept and the consequent large percentage of the design work of a project being done by vendors, the need for a unified approach to the problem of weight control becomes critically evident.
