Subject: RE: Capability (C045): representing_product_as_realized - Representing a product as realized - Issues [2/5]
Thanks Gordon I see what you are saying but I would have thought that what you describe is really a different configuration of an individual Harrier, not a version.
I always understood a version to mean a product that has had a change made to it. E.g. My car has had a product recall and a new brake assembly fitted. The car is now at version 2. The change to the brake assembly was not a configuration option, but the result of a change directive (choose your favourite business term). Hence there is a new version of the car. I would never remove the brake assembly unless another change was to be implemented. In your Harrier examples, the Harrier is being configured according to mission, not according to product changes.
I understand that some products have a “strike” plate which gets marked according to the changes that have been implemented. The product has the same serial number, but the changes has been applied, so the configuration record reflects a new version.

Hi Rob,
Issue:
RBN-1 by Rob Bodington (04-03-13) minor_technical issue
How are Product_as_realized versioned? Does each version keep the same serial number and then just have a new version number assigned? ANSWER -
Yes - the product keeps its original serial No. thru life. The version depicts
its operational 'capability'. I understand in a commercial aircraft environment the OEM serial for the product would be the 'master' in respect to the realized products CSR, the tail no. would be a 'master' in respect to operator. In the PLCS bike example the serial of the bike remains the same irrespective if it is in racing or road wheel 'trim'/version. regards
