a. Bombs, torpedoes, grenades, smoke canisters, rockets, mines, missiles, depth charges, demolition-charges, demolition-devices, demolition-kits, "pyrotechnic" devices, cartridges, submunitions therefor and simulators (i.e., equipment simulating the characteristics of any of these items), specially designed for military use;
Note ML4.a. includes:
a. Smoke grenades, fire bombs, incendiary bombs and explosive devices;
b. Missile or rocket nozzles and re-entry vehicle nosetips.
N.B. For grenade or canister ammunition for weapons or projectors specified in ML1. or ML2. and submunitions specially designed for ammunition, see ML3.
b. Equipment having all of the following:
1. Specially designed for military use; and
2. Specially designed for 'activities' relating to any of the following:
a. Items specified in ML4.a.; or
b. Improvised Explosive Devices (IEDs);
Technical Note
For the purposes of ML4.b.2., 'activities' applies to handling, launching, laying, controlling, discharging, detonating, activating, powering with one-time operational output, decoying, jamming, sweeping, detecting, disrupting or disposing.
Note 1 ML4.b. includes:
a. Mobile gas liquefying equipment;
b. Buoyant electric conducting cable suitable for sweeping magnetic mines.
Note 2 ML4.b. does not apply to hand-held devices limited by design solely to the detection of metal objects and incapable of distinguishing between mines and other metal objects.
c. Aircraft Missile Protection Systems (AMPS).
Note ML4.c. does not apply to AMPS having all of the following:
a. Any of the following missile warning sensors:
1. Passive sensors having peak response between 100-400 nm; or
2. Active pulsed Doppler missile warning sensors;
b. Countermeasures dispensing systems;
c. Flares, which exhibit both a visible signature and an infrared signature, for decoying surface-to-air missiles; and
d. Installed on "civil aircraft" and having all of the following:
1. The AMPS is only operable in a specific "civil aircraft" in which the specific AMPS is installed and for which any of the following has been issued:
a. A civil Type Certificate issued by civil aviation authorities of one or more Wassenaar Arrangement Participating States; or
b. An equivalent document recognised by the International Civil Aviation Organisation (ICAO);
2. The AMPS employs protection to prevent unauthorised access to "software"; and
3. The AMPS incorporates an active mechanism that forces the system not to function when it is removed from the "civil aircraft" in which it was installed.
