EED-S-048, DME 452, and NCD 1470 are Navy standards for equipment documentation, not directly related to IETM development. Your technical team uses these standards to create manuals. Once approved, the content is formatted to JSS – 0251 standards and shared with IETM vendors like Code and Pixels for conversion to IETMs based on JSG 0852 standard.
