Like everything in the military the numbering scheme for manuals follows a precise nomenclature. From the TM number you can determine what the manual is designed to provide and what equipment it is for.
For example:
| TM 11-5815-283-35 | |
|---|---|
| TM | Technical Manual |
| 11- | Signal Equipment |
| 5815- | Teletype and Facsimile Equipment |
| 283- | AN/FGC-70X |
| 35 | Field and Depot Maintenance |
| P | Repair Parts and Special Tools |
