As to the qualitative requirement assessment of maintainability of photoelectric reconnaissance equipment,a method for quantitative evaluation of qualitative requirements of maintainability is proposed based on the integration of maintainability design with maintenance events according to the idea of designing an integrated test.Analytic Hierarchy Process (AHP) is used to progressively quantify each qualitative index,and a method is presented to objectively test and assess the qualitative requirements of maintainability, which provides a reference for the testing and assessing of qualitative requirements of maintainability of photoelectric reconnaissance equipment under the new equipment identification system.
