Air Publications Explained Although most air platforms are supported by an S1000D Interactive Electronic Technical Publication (IETP) some legacy platforms and/or supporting ground equipment are supported by Air Publications (APs) or a Digital Air Publications (DAP) which provide a structured approach to the presentation of aircraft and aircraft equipment technical information. They are used by planning staff, users/operators and technicians responsible for the operation, maintenance and repair of aircraft and aircraft equipment. APs comprise a total of 16 Topics which relate specifically to aircraft and a further 10 topics dedicated to the support of aircraft ground support equipment. The full range of equipment is divided into 19 groups with further divisions into sub-groups specific to each group.

Books of Reference Explained Books of Reference (BR) or BRd, a newer digital variant, provide operational and technical information for Royal Navy planning staff, operators and technicians involved with operational use, maintenance or repair of the equipment.

Army Equipment Support Publications Explained Army Equipment Support Publications (AESPs) is one of the Management series of specifications for Technical Publications. Produced by the UK MOD, the AESP provides an information system for supporting managed equipment. The AESP system provides equipment support information through a combination of categories and information levels, which provide a logical organised presentation of information for planning staff, the user/operator and maintenance personnel. AESP categories and applicable information levels are summarised in the infographic.
