STANAG 3441

STANAG 3441 design of aircraft stores

Suppliers and purchasers of aircraft stores and aircraft suspension equipment for defence customers.

STANAG 3441 is NATO's agreement on the design of aircraft stores. NATO has not released it publicly; this page describes it from the Czech standard ČOS 156001 that implements it and from NATO publications that cite it.

NATO has not released this STANAG publicly. It is NATO UNCLASSIFIED, and organisations that need it obtain it through their national standardization authority.

What it is

STANAG 3441 is NATO's agreement on the design of aircraft stores. Edition 8 was promulgated on 22 October 2007, sponsored by CNAD, AC/224 NAFAG, ACG2, AASG. NATO has not released STANAG 3441 publicly, so this page describes it from a public national implementation, the Czech defence standard ČOS 156001.

What the Czech implementation covers

ČOS 156001 implements STANAG 3441 edition 8. Its entry in the Czech defence standards index describes the standard as covering the design of aircraft stores and the interconnections of suspension equipment needed to make them mutually interchangeable and serviceable across aircraft. The entry states that its provisions apply to the L-159 and JAS-39 Gripen aircraft, and to all types of combat aircraft and helicopters procured for the Czech Air Force (VzS AČR) from 2006 onward. It adds that the standard is intended for purchasers and suppliers of products and services for ensuring the defence of the state, as defined under Czech Act No. 309/2000 Coll. The index entry does not describe the technical requirements themselves. The application to Czech aircraft types and the reference to Czech law are national; the entry does not say which parts of the standard come from the NATO text.

Where it is cited

Several public NATO publications list STANAG 3441 alongside other munition-related agreements. Annex B to AOP-15 (Edition 3) includes it in its list of applicable STANAGs for generic classes of munition, next to STANAG 4432 on the safe design of air-launched guided munitions and STANAG 4187 on fuzing system safety design requirements. STANAG 4432 itself cites STANAG 3441 in a list of other agreements, together with STANAG 3525 on design safety principles for airborne weapon fuzing systems. AAS3P-01 also lists it alongside other STANAGs and AOPs on munitions. None of these citations describes its content.
