A programme, not a badge
Characterization, documentation, and review belong together. Public communication waits on that work. Absence of a status statement is intentional.
[ Materials ] · qualification
Evidence before application language.
Qualification is the discipline of deciding what may be said about fitness for a use class. This page describes that discipline. It does not claim that any material is qualified, certified, or approved for flight or defence use.
Application readiness as language
Readiness here means: the materials question is defined well enough to discuss application context. It does not mean a part is flying, fielded, or listed on an approved-supplier register.
Disciplines
Characterize
Measure behaviour relevant to the question.
Record
Keep a reviewable chain. The chain is not this website.
Review
Fitness is decided under defined review, not by layout.
Speak
Public claims stay inside what the record can carry.
