Who are the principal users of support
equipment aboard aircraft carriers?
Nonavionic SE (common and peculiar) includes all
1.
SE technicians
equipment that is nonelectronic in nature and may be

Examples of nonpowered SE are as follows:
equipment identification codes.
· Aircraft jacks
In the past, identifying support equipment was
· Aircraft tow bars; for example, the NT-4
difficult because there were no standard naming
conventions. An AS learned the designations and
· Maintenance work stands; for example, the B-4
application of the equipment by association. That has
changed somewhat. Now, newly constructed and
modified support equipment are identified according to
Military Standard 875A (MIL-STD-875A), which
outlines the type designation system for aeronautical
and support equipment. Table 1-1 is taken from
