(d) Equipment which incorporates specially designed modifications for the application of magnetic coating to flexible disk recording media with a "packing density" exceeding 2,460 bit per cm (6,250 bit per inch);
Note:
This Item does not embargo general purpose coating equipment.
(e) Equipment specially designed for the application of magnetic coating to non-flexible (rigid) disk type recording media as described in Item IL 1572 (d);
Note:
Stored programme controlled equipment for monitoring, grading, exercising or testing recording media, other than tape, embargoed by Item IL 1572 (d).
The term "automatic" refers to machinery not required the assistance of a human operator to complete its "function(s)" during each complete cycle of operations.
N.B.
The term "function(s)" does not include the initial loading or final unloading of material from the machine.
Specially designed tooling and fixtures for the manufacture of fibre-optic connectors and couplers embargoed by Item IL 1526 (f).
"Stored-programme controlled" equipment capable of automatic X-ray orientation and angle correction of double-rotated stress-compensated (SC) quartz crystals embargoed by Item IL 1587 with a tolerance of 10 seconds of arc maintained simultaneously in both angles of rotation.
(For the definition of "stored-programme controlled" see Item IL 1355.)
Test facilities and equipment for the design or development of aircraft or gas turbine aero-engines, as follows, and specially designed components, accessories and "specially designed software" therefor
(a) Supersonic (Mach 1.4 to Mach 5), hypersonic (Mach 5 to Mach 15) and hypervelocity (above Mach 15) wind tunnels, except wind tunnels specially designed for educational purposes and having a "test section size" (measured internally) of less than 25 cm (10 inches), (By "test section size" is understood the diameter of the circle, or the side of the square, or the longest side of the rectangle constituting possible shapes of the test section);
(b) Devices for simulating flow-environments of Mach 5 and above, regardless of the actual Mach number at which the devices operate, including hot shot tunnels, plasma arc tunnels, shock tubes, shock tunnels, gas tunnels and light gas guns;
(c) Wind tunnels and devices, other than two dimensional (2-D) sections, that have unique capabilities for simulating Reynolds number flow in excess of 25 × 106, at transonic velocities;
(d) Automated control systems, instrumentation (including sensors), and automated data-acquisition equipment, specially designed for use with wind tunnels and devices embargoed by (a), (b) or (c) above;
(e) Models, specially designed for use with wind tunnels or with the devices covered by (b) or (c) above, of embargoed aircraft, helicopters, airfoils, spacecraft, space-launch vehicles, rockets or surface-effect vehicles.
Note:
Specially designed models are those equipped with sensors and a means of transmitting data from the sensors to the data-acquisition system, or equipped with features for using non-intrusive sensors (i.e. not directly connected to the model or not located in the flow adjacent to the model).
(f) Specially designed electromagnetic interference and electromagnetic pulse (EMI/EMP) simulators;
(g) Specially designed test facilities and equipment for the development of gas turbine aero-engines and components, as follows:
(1) Special test facilities capable of applying dynamic flight loads, measuring performance or simulating the design operating environments for rotating assemblies or aero-engines;
