SAE AIR5532A – Generic Aircraft-Store Interface Framework (GASIF) (Stabilized: Aug 2012)

This document has been declared “Stabilized” and will no longer be subjected to periodic reviews for currency. Users are responsible for verifying references and continued suitability or technical requirements. New technology may exist.

This SAE Aerospace Information Report (AIR) defines a Generic Aircraft-Store Interface Framework (GASIF). This is a common framework for modeling and specifiying aircraft-store logical interfaces. GASIF complies with the OSI Basic Reference Model (ITU-T Rec. X.200 / ISO/IEC 7498-1) in that it describes operations and mechanisms which are assignable to layers as specified in the OSI Basic Reference Model.

This AIR provides a mapping of the Interface Standard for Aircraft-store Electrical Interconnection System (AEIS), MIL-STD- 1760, in Appendix C.

The purpose of GASIF is to foster greater interoperability between aircraft and stores through standards coordination and common approaches to aircraft-store interface and control documents (ICD).

The field of application for GASIF is military aircraft/store avionics, where a “store” is a device (such as an air-launched weapon) that when loaded on an aircraft allows it to perform a specific mission.
