MILNET Brief
Databases

MILNET presents a list of the databases available on the site. Most were created in the 1980s and subject to updates over time and should be current (unless noted otherwise) through 2004.

Database	Brief Description
AAMs	Air-to-Air-Missiles (Includes NATO and major power's offerings)
AGMs	Air-to-Ground Missiles (Includes NATO and major power's offerings)
Aircraft	A summary of the major bombers, ground attack fighters, air superiority fighters and transport aicraft used by the nations of the world. Does not include commercial airliners or small planes - unless of course they have been added to military inventory by a major nation (ie. the KC-10 extender aerial refueling tanker is a DC-10 cargo version modified for use by the USAF). The page includes links to stealth, exotic aircraft, engine technologies, and other aviation topics.
Battlefield Missiles	A general look at missiles launched from the battlefield including man portable (MANPAD), does not include ICBMs, MRBMs, or SLBMS.(these are covered in Strategic Missiles)
Categorized Search Database	An Internet research tool used by MILNET to store links found in our research, the Categories Database contains results of web searches organized by category-sub-category and includes hot links, a summary of the what the particular link provides and in many cases a look at the overall web sites goals. This allows researchers to eliminate "false returns", links found in internet searches that have nothing whatsoever to do with their searches. Of course the database focuses on things MILNET visitors come to expect: Military, Weapons (aircraft, tanks, missiles, bombs, rockets, ships, nuclear, bio-chem,), Intelligence, Terrorism, Special Forces, etc.
