Coupons of 2519 aluminum were exposed for three weeks in a variety of environments representative of those expected during fabrication of the advanced amphibious assault vehicle (AAAV). Specimens exposed to tap water developed very minor pitting and staining, while specimens exposed in high humidity air, water chaser, or machine cutting fluid revealed no detectable changes.
