This page is about naming of US military programs. For the general topic of weapons systems and for other US designations, see Weapon. For United States military aircraft designation systems, see Joint Electronics Type Designation System.

System Management Codes are a United States Armed Forces military designation scheme for various projects, or "systems", before they received an official name — e.g., under a military aircraft designation system.
