The document was principally prepared by Jerry Schell from GE Aircraft Engines, with additional input from GTE OEMs and DoD Repair Depots. It outlines the technical evaluation of seven component alloys and coating compositions to be investigated in the project using HVOF and Plasma Spray processes. The Joint Test Protocol includes five major tasks such as process optimizations, fatigue, wear, friction, corrosion tests, and producibility tests. The current status of the project includes finalizing the document, acquiring raw materials, and issuing purchase orders for fabrication and coatings optimization works.
