What is arming point?

An arming point is a location on an aircraft where weapons can be installed or attached for use. This can include guns, bombs, missiles, rockets, or other types of weaponry. Arming points are designed to be secure and easily accessible for maintenance and installation purposes, but are typically located away from passenger areas for safety reasons. The specific number and location of arming points on an aircraft will vary depending on the make and model of the aircraft, as well as its intended use and operational requirements. Proper handling and installation of weapons at arming points is essential to ensure the safety of everyone on board the aircraft, as well as on the ground.
