The System Reliability, over a 1,000- hour mission, is:<br />

Thus the targeted system Reliability is 74.08%<br />

<strong>Availability</strong><br />

Serial system <strong>Availability</strong> is equal to the product of the individual elements’<br />

Availabilities.<br />

Ai = Individual element (asymptotic) availability<br />

n = Total number of elements on the serial system<br />
