11-34. GENERAL INTERCHANGEABILITY INFORMATION

General Information;

Repairs made to combat damaged equipment should be the same as repairs made during

the normal maintenance posture. However, due to the extreme nature of damage that

might be found in combat-damaged equipment, normal maintenance procedures might

not be sufficient. In the interest of rapidly repairing damage to communications system

in this situation, it will often be faster to exchange some components rather than repair

them. The following is a partial listing of interchangeable parts for the AN/VIC-1 and

the AN/VRC-12 as installed in most common tracked vehicles on the battlefield. It is

provided as a guide only and is not necessarily y a complete listing of all components

from other vehicles that could be substituted. Further assistance can be obtained by

studying the cording diagrams located in paragraph 11-35. This listing considers only

US equipment. For information on foreign equipment interchangeability, refer to

paragraph 11-25 through 11-28. Any component that has been replaced should be turned

in for repair through the normal channels and thereby returned to the inventory. When

time permits, route all replaced cables to conform to the original configuration. If

haste is essential, route replaced cables as necessary and secure them where possible to

prevent damage to the cables.
