Downloaded from https://www.everyspec.com MIL-STD-1808B FOREWORD 1. This standard is approved for use by the Department of the Air Force and is available for use by all Departments and Agencies of the Department of Defense. 2. In order to provide standardization between publications a standardized numbering system has been developed.

To ensure maximum flexibility, gaps have been left in the system and subsystem numbering sequences.
Manufacturers are encouraged to use the unassigned systems and subsystems to accommodate unique design or emerging technologies when required, as approved by the procuring activity and current acquisition policy. 4. As a minimum, this standard is intended to be used in conjunction with MIL-PRF-83495 and DoD-STD-863. Additional applications are available as defined in the documents identified in section 2 . 5.
