This connector is designated the MIL-STD-1760, type II connector. This connector assembly will be used to provide the transfer of MIL-STD-1760 interface class I electrical signals and power between an aircraft (or ground vehicle) mounted launcher and an associated store. This connector is intended to be used on rail and eject launchers where engagement/disengagement of the launcher receptacle (with attached buffer plug) to the store receptacle will be via a blindmate mechanical mechanism. The signal and power transfer may occur at various phases of all store operations from store upload through store launch. In addition, the connectors may be used with suitable test equipment for various tests of the store and aircraft in the factory-to upload sequence. This connector is military unique because it is intended to be used on rail and eject launchers where engagement/disengagement of the launcher receptacle (with attached buffer plug) to the store receptacle will be via a blindmate mechanical mechanism; whereas no known commercially equivalent substitute is available.
