ISO/TR 17400:2003 is applicable to new projects and programs and to redesigned and upgraded launch pad and integration sites. ISO/TR 17400:2003 establishes the testing phases, goals, and general aspects for launch space complexes and complexes for assembly and tests of a vehicle and spacecraft and the associated equipment that, after successful testing, will be ready for launch vehicle processing and launch. ISO/TR 17400:2003 may be applicable to the creation of international launch pad and integration sites. At creation of new launching space complexes and complexes for assembly and tests of a vehicle and spacecraft (or at their modernization) within the framework of one country, the rules established by that country may be applied.
