This form will be attached to all material that has been determined irreparable or not suitable for aircraft use ( scrap parts or material ).

• A. DD FORM 1577 - Unserviceable ( Condemned ) Tag ( Red )
• B. DD FORM 1577-2 - Unserviceable ( Reparable ) Tag ( Blue )
• C. CG - 1577 - B (PQDR Tag)
• D. ALC 5000-5 Tag

Answer: (A)

The key idea is using the standard aircraft material status tagging to signal condemnation. When material is deemed irreparable or not fit for aircraft use, you attach the Unserviceable (Condemned) Tag, which is the red tag, along with DD Form 1577. This combination communicates clearly that the item must be scrapped or otherwise dispositioned and is not eligible for repair or return to service. The blue tag paired with DD Form 1577-2 is used for unserviceable items that are repairable, not condemned. The other tags serve different functions—one is for quality discrepancy reporting, and the last is not the standard flag for condemned aircraft material. So the red Unserviceable (Condemned) Tag with DD Form 1577 is the correct pairing.
