Can of worns. Detractors on both sides. I believe Mil-217 Plus is out or due and so is a major revision to SR332. Both of which have high price tags – and both will undoubtably start a whole new set of arguments for and against.
If your customer is asking for the predictions to be based on 217 I’d state your predictions are based on 217 at the customer request. Kind of hard for them to argue with you.

( Telcordia SR-332 or MIL-HDBK-217) I normally use MIL-HDBK-217 for medical products and Telcordia SR-332 for Telecom or similar products. I'm working on a medical product where they have requested all of their MTBF Predictions to Telcordia SR-332. Thanks for any insight you may have on this topic.
