In a period of reduced acquisition and maintenance dollars, the Armed Forces must now be conscience of the service life of their vehicles. Systems originally designed to last only a few years are now entering into their 20 th year of service. Today's Army acquisition dollar must be stretched further than before to obtain a robust system that will require reduced maintenance, but be able to perform for 20-years and beyond. To this end, the Army has looked to the commercial vehicle industry, which has solutions to many of the issues they are facing. The development of Commercial Item Descriptions (CIDs) will allow manufacturers to qualify their materials based on performance characteristics. This paper will discuss testing currently being conducted on zinc-rich coating systems to develop a CID. This testing is being performed on moisture-cure zinc-rich coatings used with a standard CARC system. Their performance is being evaluated in both accelerated corrosion/laboratory and natural marine exposure tests. Keywords: corrosion, zinc-rich paint, army vehicles, accelerated testing, commercial item description.
