Excludes Complete Guided Missile Systems.

Note-This group includes missiles (with or without warheads or explosive components) incorporating mechanisms capable of altering normal flight paths. Radar and infrared assemblies and components designed specifically for use with guided missiles are classified in the appropriate classes of this group. This group also includes guided bombs that have been converted to guided missiles by addition of a means of propulsion. Excluded from this group are case sections, nose cones, flare sections, center sections, warheads, explosive components, rockets, and auxiliary components of missiles and reentry vehicles which are designed or constructed for exclusive use with or for housing of nuclear warheads and/or warhead sections. Also excluded are space vehicle nose cones and space capsules specifically designed to carry loads peculiar to space research and space travel.

Additional Information for Guided Missile Subsystems Additional Information for Guided Missile Subsystems

NATO Supply Class 1427 is a classification within NATO Supply Group 14, which is specifically for Guided Missiles.

NATO Supply Class 1427 focuses on Guided Missile Subsystems. Subsystems refer to the individual components or systems that make up a larger guided missile system. These subsystems are essential for the proper functioning and operation of guided missiles.

Examples of guided missile subsystems that fall under NATO Supply Class 1427 include:

1. Guidance Systems: These subsystems are responsible for providing guidance and navigation capabilities to the missile. They may include components such as inertial navigation systems, GPS receivers, or radar-based guidance systems.

2. Propulsion Systems: These subsystems provide the necessary thrust and propulsion to the missile. They may include rocket motors, solid or liquid fuel systems, or jet engines.

3. Warhead Systems: These subsystems are responsible for the payload of the missile, which can be explosive or non-explosive. They may include components such as detonators, fuses, or fragmentation systems.

4. Control Systems: These subsystems are responsible for controlling the flight path and trajectory of the missile. They may include components such as control surfaces, actuators, or autopilot systems.

5. Communication Systems: These subsystems enable communication between the missile and the operator or other platforms. They may include components such as transmitters, receivers, or data links.

It is important to note that NATO Supply Class 1427 specifically focuses on the subsystems of guided missiles, rather than the complete missile systems themselves. This classification system helps in organizing and categorizing the various components and subsystems used in guided missile technology within NATO member countries.

By using this classification system, NATO member countries can effectively manage and coordinate the procurement, maintenance, and logistics of guided missile subsystems, ensuring interoperability and compatibility among different systems.
