This heading covers :
(1) Heavier-than-air aircraft, which are mechanically propelled. This group includes aeroplanes (landplanes, seaplanes and amphibians), gyroplanes (equipped with one or more rotors rotating freely on vertical axes), and helicopters (equipped with one or more mechanically driven rotors).
Such aircraft may be used for military purposes, the transport of persons or goods or for such activities as training, aerial photography, agricultural work, rescue duties, fire fighting or for meteorological or other scientific purposes.
Radio-guided aircraft controlled from the ground or from another aircraft are covered by this heading, as are aircraft specially constructed so that they can be used as road vehicles. (2) Spacecraft, which are vehicles able to travel outside the earth's atmosphere (e.g., telecommunications or meteorological satellites). (3) Spacecraft launch vehicles whose function is to place a given payload on a trajectory orbiting the earth ("satellite launch vehicles") or falling under the influence of a gravitational field other than that of the earth ("spacecraft launch vehicles"). These vehicles impart to the payload a terminal velocity exceeding 7,000 m/s at the end of the powered flight. (4) Suborbital launch vehicles that follow a parabolic trajectory and generally carry instrumentation for scientific or other technical purposes, whether or not in the form of a retrievable payload, beyond the earth's atmosphere. In cases where payloads are released, these vehicles do not impart a terminal velocity exceeding 7,000 m/s. Payloads are often returned to the earth's surface by parachute for recovery. The heading excludes, however, artillery rockets, guided missiles, e.g., "ballistic missiles", and similar munitions of war which do not impart a terminal velocity exceeding 7,000 m/s to the payload (heading 93.06). They deliver munitions of war, e.g., explosives, submunitions, chemical agents, and after following a parabolic trajectory cause the payload to impact on a target. The heading also excludes : (a) Models, whether or not built accurately to scale, used, for example, for decoration (e.g., heading 44.20 or 83.06) or for purely demonstrational purposes (heading 90.23). (b) Toys or models for recreational purposes (heading 95.03).
