Not all fields and/or graphic modifiers are available for all types of symbols. Some are only valid for ground units, some only for group equipment etc. For a complete description of which fields and graphic modifiers are supported by which symbols we refer you to the MIL-STD-2525B specification.
Point symbols in Appendix B
Point symbols in Appendix B use a subset of the attributes defined for symbols in Appendix A, D or E. Note that not all symbols can display all of these fields.
Field | Property | Description | Type | Length |

Tactical graphics in Appendix B
Appendix B also contains tactical graphics categorized by different location types: lines, polygon areas, orbit areas, corridor areas or fan areas and they are all defined by different attributes. The geography of lines and polygon areas are defined by the feature geometry, other symbol location types require extra attributes to completely define their geography.
