2 Not included on SMC compliance list. Included with NRO standards.

This table lists the specifications and standards that are being introduced or reintroduced into the national security space acquisition process that relate specifically to design and verification requirements. General design and verification specifications and standards typically apply to multiple levels of assembly and include some discussion of requirements oriented toward the integrated system-level architecture. Domain-specific standards are oriented toward environmental, functional, or hardware type testing and include requirements for batteries, solar panels, mechanisms, and structures. Part-level standards typically focus on space-related items. For details, see Aero. TOR-2003(8583)-2, Rev. 4, "Systems Engineering Revitalization Specifications and Standards Implementation Plan and Status."
