FOREWORD1. This standard is approved for use by the Department of the Air Force and is available for use by allDepartments and Agencies of the Department of Defense.

2. In order to provide standardization between publications a standardized numbering system has beendeveloped. It is designed with sufficient flexibility to permit expansion and application outside thetechnical manual system to support logistics elements that interact with or directly influence equipmentmaintenance and technical manual development and use.

3. 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 designor emerging technologies when required, as approved by the procuring activity and current acquisitionpolicy. Please provide any changes to the Air Force Technical Manual Specifications and Standards(TMSS) office at the address in step 6 below.

4. As a minimum, this standard is intended to be used in conjunction with MIL-DTL-83495 andMIL-HDBK-863. Additional applications are available as defined in the documents identified in section 2.

5. The purpose of change 1 is to add a statement describing the proper procedure for requesting useof the unassigned SSSN numbers. Change 1 also designates chapter 19 to training and chapter 20 toequipment storage, aligning the MIL-STD-1808 with the MIL-DTL-83495.

6. Comments, suggestions, or questions on this document should be addressed to AFLCMC/HIAMTechnical Data Section, 4170 Hebble Creek Road, Bldg. 280, Door 15, Area A, Wright-Patterson AFB, OH45433–5653 or emailed to [email protected] mil. Since contact information can change, the currency ofthis address information should be verified using the ASSIST Online database at https://assist.dla mil/.

4 GENERAL REQUIREMENTS4.1 System Subsystem Sub-subsystem Number (SSSN). The SSSN referencing shall be used to locateneeded data for the technical information required by those documents listed in section 2. Broad rules forapplying the SSSN are outlined herein. The SSSN numbering system is a dash number breakdown thatprovides a means for dividing information into system, subsystem, and sub-subsystem. The followinginstructions provide general procedures for constructing the SSSN using the numbers assigned herein. TheSSSN shall be used in conjunction with the functional requirements of MIL-DTL-9854, MIL-DTL-38807,MIL-DTL-83495, electronic data task oriented view packages developed according to MIL-DTL-87268.

4.1.1 Number composition. The basic SSSN is composed of two- and three-digit elements (see table in step4.1.1.3). The first element (system) and the first digit of the second element (subsystem) are assigned asspecified herein (see section 5). The second digit of the second element (sub-subsystem) and the thirdelement (subject) are assigned by the manufacturer according to the complexity of the equipment andthe numbering application. The fourth element (function) is used when typical maintenance functions arerequired. Depending on program needs, such as supportability analysis, configuration management, work unitcodes, engineering data, etc., additional elements may be added to the right.

4.1.1.1 System number. When assigning system or subsystem numbers to information applicable to a wholesystem or whole subsystem zeros shall occupy the applicable elements and digits of the SSSN. For example,Information about the complete Navigation system located in an On-equipment Maintenance Manual Set(OMMS), General System (GS) manual would be assigned the SSSN 34-00-00. Information containedin this manual must be applicable to the entire Navigation system.

4.1.1.2 Subsystem number. Continuing the example in 4.1.1.1, if subsystems are so complex that theinformation cannot be practically covered, additional subsystem breakouts may be required. The informationin these manuals would be confined to the specific subsystem, e.g., information for the Dependent PositionDetermining subsystem would be assigned 34-50-00.

4.1.1.3 Sub-subsystem number. Systems designed with very complex subsystems may require furtherbreakout into sub-subsystems. The sub-subsystem element numbers and descriptions are defined by themanufacturer. Sub-subsystems shall be indicated by a number greater than zero in the second element,second digit, e.g., 34-51-00. In this case, -51 represents a sub-subsystem, e.g., Global Positioning System(GPS), of the Dependent Position Determining subsystem (34-50-00) of the Navigation System (34-00-00).
