STANAG 3842

STANAG 3842 rail-launched missile/launcher mechanical interface

Makers of aircraft rail-type missile launchers and the air-launched guided missiles fitted to them, and the programmes that specify their mechanical interface.

STANAG 3842 is the NATO agreement on the mechanical interface between a rail-launched missile and its launcher. NATO has not released it publicly; this page describes it from the Czech defence standards index entry for the standard that implements 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 3842 is the NATO agreement on the rail launched missile/launcher mechanical interface. Edition 5 was promulgated on 13 May 2008, under CNAD, AC/224 NAFAG, ACG2, AASG. NATO has not released STANAG 3842 publicly, so this page describes it from the entry for its Czech implementing standard in the Czech defence standards index (oos-data.army.cz), not from NATO's own text.

What the Czech implementation covers

The Czech defence standards index lists ČOS 142001, on the dimensions of the mechanical connection between an air-launched guided missile and a rail-type launching device, as the standard implementing STANAG 3842 edition 5. The index describes ČOS 142001 as setting out the required dimensions that define the geometry of the launching device's suspension lug for that mechanical connection. The index entry does not give the dimensions themselves.

Put STANAG 3842 on a system that keeps the evidence

Documents, training, risks and evidence in one place, with the trail an auditor asks for.

How we help

A supplier bound by STANAG 3842 through a contract holds the obtained text through its national authority. In ComplyTrain you record the requirements that apply to you as your own requirements, give each an owner, and keep the evidence that shows you meet them against each one.
