Hi Mr. Adams. Had to look up, http://www.portsmouth.co.uk/newshome...per.4926226.jp ((I did some business with those companies you mentioned, very respectable, I'd rank them A+, naturally we're bound by commercial level confidentiality, so naturally I forget why)). The "Common Airframe Modular Missile" concept is very much a desirable SOP, and you being an "Engineering Manager" you know the value of a *Block Diagram*, and so as primitive as it sounds, use Lego blocks, even if you glue them together to form the modules, and it may be instructive to field personel, like me. Cheers Ken |
