time sufficient to stabilize the temperature of the resistor assembly for not less than 30 minutes in an ambient temperature of not less than 25 C (77 F). After the test, the resistor assembly, including resistors, wiring and adjacent components shall be examined for evidence of overheating, deterioration or damage.

* 4.3.9 Lifting and tiedown test. Lifting and tiedown provisions, markings, and the connecting structural members of the vehicle shall be inspected for conformance with MIL-STD-209. All lifting and tiedown provisions and the connecting structural members shall meet the criteria of
