The second family is a subset of the MIL-C-38999 family of connectors. These are circular multi-pin connectors. The particular series being created is specified by Military Specification MIL-C-38999/24. [38999/24] These are Series III Jam Nut Receptacles (panel mounted). (See Figure 4.6.) This series consists of nine different shell sizes. Each shell size can be combined with a number of different pin configurations. The connector is secured to the panel with a Jam Nut. [38999/28]
The parts being modeled contain much more detail than is needed in the models. Many of these details can be simply specified with notes, and as such, would unnecessarily clutter the database. These details don't affect the primary use of these parts, which is visualization and interference checking.
