Field Replaceable Role Change Harnesses (FRCS)

GDS through EDO MBM Technology Ltd offers the next generation MIL-STD-1760 "smart" weapon snatch connector harness incorporating the EDO MBM Field Replaceable Connector System (FRCS). Unlike current MIL-DTL-38999/31 snatch connectors, FRCS provides an efficient, "jam free" electrical interface on weapon disconnect with predictable and consistent separation forces.

End users will benefit considerably from the FRCS harness. In addition to being fully field replaceable and repairable, the connector is self-aligning (preventing contact damage) and eases blind or recessed connector mating. The new design does not require any modification to the mating weapon connector or aircraft. FRCS can also be retro-fitted to existing harnesses.
