GENERAL
Under DoD Directive 4120.15 (reference (b)), this List shall provide a single DoDwide source document containing approved Mission Design Series (MDS) designators and popular names for all aerospace vehicles. This List shall also include all vehicles being entered into Department of Defense inventories. Aircraft with standard DoD designators operated by the U.S. Coast Guard are also included. This List includes approved MDS designators through July 31, 2003. (See Appendix 4 for designators approved since last publication.)
When all aerospace vehicles with a specific MDS or popular name have retired from Service inventories, the Military Departments shall follow the procedures in AFI 16-401/AR 70- 50/NAVAIRINST 8800.3A (reference (c)) to move them from this List to the retired list. (See Appendix 5 for designators removed from the List since last publication.)
