SAE AS5725B-2015 PDF

Scope: This standard defines implementation requirements for the electrical interface between: a. aircraft carried miniature store carriage systems and miniature stores b. aircraft parent carriage and miniature stores c. surface based launch systems and miniature stores The interface provides a common interfacing capability for the initialization and employment of smart miniature munitions and other miniature stores from the host systems. Physical@ electrical@ and logical (functional) aspects of the interface are addressed. Purpose The purpose of this standard is to minimize proliferation of electrical interfaces between platforms@ miniature stores and associated carriage systems and thereby promote interoperability of miniature stores and carriage systems across different programs and services. Application This standard applies to all platforms@ miniature stores and associated carriage systems that electrically interface with each other. The carriage systems include captive and releasable (canister type) aircraft mounted carriage devices@ platforms such as unmanned combat air vehicles (parent carriage)@ dedicated carriage areas on aircraft@ and surface based launch systems. For simplicity within this document@ all carrying devices are generically referred to as the miniature store carriage system (or simply carriage system) from an interface perspective. Additionally@ the term store as used in this document refers to a miniature store unless otherwise indicated.
