Section 4.7
Parameter Type
To represent an air-to-surface missile on an aircraft it is necessary to specify the station to which
the missile is attached and the type of missile. For example, for a missile on the first left-wing
station, the parameter type would be 0640. (The Parameter-Value field would indicate the type of
munition attached to that station.) The Articulation Parameter record would then appear as:
Change indicator: (value unchanged to indicate no change)
ID - Part Attached to: 0 (aircraft)
Parameter #1 type: 0640
Parameter value: (type of missile from 64-bit munition type)
If the missile was fired, the next Entity State PDU would have an Articulation Parameter record
with the following information on the launched missile:
Change indicator: (value increment to indicate a change)
ID - Part Attached to: 0 (aircraft)
Parameter #1 type: 0640
Parameter value: (type of missile from 64-bit munition type)
The change indicator specifies that the munition that was present is no longer present.
