How Does a MIL-STD 810 UAV Testing Lab Facilitate Drone Resilience? 

The Applied Technical Services Family of Companies (ATS FoC) operates MIL-STD 810 UAV testing labs to verify that unmanned aerial vehicles (UAVs) are resilient to environmental conditions. 

UAVs are exposed to environmental factors such as extreme temperatures, vibration, shock, and humidity during operation. Withstanding these conditions is essential for dependable and safe performance. MIL-STD 810 testing evaluates drone resilience to help ensure reliable operation in real-world missions. 

Regulatory agencies, including the Department of Defense (DoD), may require environmental testing to verify drone compliance. At ATS, our MIL-STD 810 UAV testing labs help clients meet these requirements. 

What Test Methods are Performed under MIL-STD 810? 

MIL-STD 810 is a military standard for environmental testing. ATS conducts testing using methods, including but not limited to: 

  • Method 500.5 – Low Pressure or Altitude 
  • Method 501.5 – High Temperature 
  • Method 502.5 – Low Temperature 
  • Method 503.5 – Temperature Shock 
  • Method 504.1 – Contamination by Fluids 
  • Method 505.5 – Sunshine (solar radiation) 
  • Method 506.5 – Rain 
  • Method 507.5 – Humidity 
  • Method 509.5 – Salt Spray/Salt Fog 
  • Method 510.5 – Sand and Dust 
  • Method 512.5 – Immersion 
  • Method 513.6 – Acceleration 
  • Method 514.6 – Vibration 
  • Method 516.6 – Shock 
  • Method 517.1 – Pyroshock 
  • Method 519.6 – Gunfire Shock 
  • Method 521.3 – Icing/Freezing Rain 
  • Method 524.0 – Freeze/Thaw
