Note 2: For controls on launcher mechanisms that are integrated onto a vessel or ground vehicle, see Categories VI and VII, respectively.
Note 3: This paragraph does not control parts and accessories (for example, igniters, launch stands) specially designed for consumer use with model and high power rockets and kits thereof made of paper, wood, fibreglass, or plastic containing no substantial metal parts and designed to be flown with hobby rocket motors that are certified for consumer use.
 (c) Apparatus and devices specially designed for the handling, control, activation, monitoring, detection, projection, discharge, or detonation of the articles in paragraphs (a) and (b) (MT for those systems enumerated in paragraphs (a)(1) and (2), and (b)(1)).
Note 1: This paragraph includes specialised handling equipment (transporters, cranes, and lifts) specially designed to handle articles enumerated in paragraphs (a) and (b) for preparation and launch from fixed and mobile sites. The equipment in this paragraph also includes specially designed robots, robot controllers, and robot end‑effectors, and liquid propellant tanks specially designed for the storage or handling of the propellants controlled in Category V, or other liquid propellants used in the systems enumerated in paragraphs (a)(1), (2) or (5).
Note 2: Aircraft Missile Protection Systems (AMPS) are controlled in Category XI.
 (d) Rocket, SLV and missile power plants, as follows:
 (1) except as enumerated in subparagraph (2) or (3) of this paragraph, individual rocket stages for the articles enumerated in paragraph (a)(1), (2) or (5) (MT for those stages usable in systems enumerated in paragraphs (a)(1) and (2));
 (2) solid propellant rocket motors, hybrid or gel rocket motors, or liquid propellant rocket engines having a total impulse capacity equal to or greater than 1.1 × 106N·s (MT);
 (3) solid propellant rocket motors, hybrid or gel rocket motors, or liquid propellant rocket engines having a total impulse capacity equal to or greater than 8.41 × 105N·s, but less than 1.1 × 106N·s (MT);
 (4) combined cycle, pulsejet, ramjet, or scramjet engines (MT);
 (5) air‑breathing engines that operate above Mach 4 not enumerated in subparagraph (4);
 (6) pressure gain combustion‑based propulsion systems not enumerated in subparagraphs (4) and (5);
