Our Company produces electronic products for both Military & 
     Commercial Airborne. Following the cancellation of Mil-STD-454, 
     Requirement 5; Mil-STD-2000 & QQ-S-571, we reviewed the impact on 
     Design, Assembly & quality, & agreed on the following:
     
     1. All new programs will invoke ANSI/J-STD-001, class 3 as a soldering 
     requirement for Circuit Card Assemblies.
     
     2. Our internal Assembly Quality Spec will be updated to reflect any 
     changes between MIL-STD-2000 and ANSI/J-STD-001.
     
     3. Solder will not be called out in our parts list if SN60, SN62 or 
     SN63 is intended.
     
     4. High temperature solders, as applicable, will be specified IAW 
     ANSI/J-STD-006
     
     Note: training on the J-STDs is available. Contact the Engineering 
     Manufacturing Production Facility, Indianapolis, Ind.
