shall be examined for evidence of fuel or lubricant leakage, or other defects. All defects found
during tests shall be listed on the deficiency sheet for the vehicle (see 6.7).

Government will withhold acceptance of subsequent vehicles until evidence has been provided
by the contractor that corrective action has been taken.

contractor that corrective action has been taken.
4.6.6 Comparison tests. The Government may select vehicles at any time during the contract
production period and subject them to the examinations specified in 4.6.2 and tests specified in
table V to compare existing vehicle quality with previous standards and to reveal defects of a
workmanship or materials nature that may reduce the effective operation of the vehicle in the
field. These tests will be conducted at Government laboratories or proving grounds designated
by the contracting officer. Vehicles selected for comparison tests will be combat loaded with all
BII stowed in their respective spaces and shall not include vehicles previously tested.
