RCS Facility Certification Reviewers | ||
|
This page provides a listing of Pending and Vetted Reviewers who typically serve on 3-person panels as the certifying body for a range undergoing review as part ot the National RCS Measurement Facilities Certification Program. Vetted Reviewers are those reviewers whose nomination packages have been received and affirmed as meeting the minimum Reviewer Qualifications. Originally, Members and Associates of the Radar Committee of the Signature Measurements Standards Group, a standing group under the Range Commanders Council vetted the reviewers. Once the program was up and running, that responsibility was assumed by the Vetted Reviewers. Pending Reviewers are candidate reviewers who have been nominated (or self-nominated) to be reviewers. For Pending Reviewers, if a nomination package has been received, links will be provided below to their respective resumes and commitment letters for review by interested parties, including those eligible to affirm their nominations. Affirmations are performed by the Vetted Reviewers. NEW: What is involved in a review? Click here for a snapshop of a typical review timeline. Reviewer Nomination Packages must include:
