A Countermeasure infobox may be used to summarize information about a particular weapon or weapon system (such as a firearm, a sword, a grenade, an artillery piece, a torpedo, or a tank).  The infobox should be added using the {{tl|infobox countermeasure}} template, as shown below:

'''Note''': When using parameters, avoid the ambiguous abbreviation "N/A", and instead use "unknown" or "none". All subjective or qualitative judgements and numerical quantities or statistics must be cited to a reliable source (see [[WP:MILMOS#CITE]]).
 
 
 
The infobox is intended as a quick reference.  Don't add non-data items, like question marks, “none”, “see text” or links to article sections (the article's table of contents already does this).  Only add “unknown” to assert that an information point is unknowable, not as a placeholder to show that it is missing from the article.  Choose a representative model and indicate what it is with the <code>spec_label</code> parameter, instead of listing multiple data items in one field.
 
 
 
This template may also be used for general categories of countermeasures, such as [[active protection system]] and [[vehicle armor]], by including only some general characteristics.
 
 
 
General parameters:
 
* '''name''' &ndash; the formal name of the countermeasure.
 
* '''image''' &ndash; ''optional'' &ndash; an image of the countermeasure.  The image must be given in the form <nowiki>[[Image:Example.jpg|300px]]</nowiki>; in particular, the ''thumb'' attribute must '''not''' be selected.
 
* '''caption''' &ndash; ''optional'' &ndash; the text to be placed below the image. 
 
* '''origin''' &ndash; ''optional'' &ndash; the country or place where the countermeasure originated or was first manufactured.
 
* '''type''' &ndash; ''optional'' &ndash; the type of countermeasure.
 
 
 
Type selection parameters (these parameters control whether—and how—particular specification fields will be displayed; multiple ones may be enabled where appropriate):
 
* '''is_ranged''' &ndash; "''yes''" if the weapon is a ranged weapon, such as a firearm or bow; '''must''' be left blank otherwise.
 
* '''is_bladed''' &ndash; "''yes''" if the weapon is a bladed, pointed, or blunt hand-held weapon, such as a sword, mace, or polearm; '''must''' be left blank otherwise.
 
* '''is_explosive''' &ndash; "''yes''" if the weapon is an explosive device, such as a grenade or bomb; '''must''' be left blank otherwise.
 
* '''is_fortification''' &ndash; "''yes''" if the countermeasure protects a fortification, such as a tank; '''must''' be left blank otherwise.
 
* '''is_vehicle''' &ndash; "''yes''" if the countermeasure protects a self-propelled vehicle, such as a tank; '''must''' be left blank otherwise.
 
* '''is_personnel''' &ndash; "''yes''" if the countermeasure protects an individual. '''must''' be left blank otherwise.
 
* '''is_UK''' &ndash; "''yes''" if the field labels should use British/Commonwealth English (''calibre, armour''); '''must''' be left blank otherwise.
 
 
 
Service history parameters:
 
* '''service''' &ndash; ''optional'' &ndash; the period (usually given in years) when the weapon was in service. 
 
* '''used_by''' &ndash; ''optional'' &ndash; the countries, armed forces, or other groups using the weapon; this may be omitted for weapons employed only in their country of origin. 
 
* '''wars''' &ndash; ''optional'' &ndash; any wars during which the weapon saw service. 
 
 
 
Production history parameters:
 
* '''designer''' &ndash; ''optional'' &ndash; the person or group responsible for designing the weapon. 
 
* '''design_date''' &ndash; ''optional'' &ndash; the date (usually given as a year) when the weapon was designed. 
 
* '''manufacturer''' &ndash; ''optional'' &ndash; the manufacturer of the weapon. 
 
* '''unit_cost''' &ndash; ''optional'' &ndash; the unit cost of the weapon; this should only be indicated for weapons currently being produced. 
 
* '''production_date''' &ndash; ''optional'' &ndash; the period (usually given in years) when the weapon was produced. 
 
* '''number''' &ndash; ''optional'' &ndash; the number of countermeasures of this type that were manufactured. 
 
* '''variants''' &ndash; ''optional'' &ndash; any variant models of the countermeasure. 
 
 
 
General specification parameters:
 
* '''spec_label''' &ndash; ''optional'' &ndash; a label for the specifications, to be used when data for a particular variant is indicated; should be left blank otherwise. 
 
* '''mass''' &ndash; ''optional'' &ndash; the weight of the countermeasure.
 
* '''mass/volume''' &ndash; ''optional'' &ndash; the weight of the armor per unit.
 
 
 
* '''breech''' &ndash; ''optional'' &ndash; for artillery, the type of breech mechanism. 
 
* '''recoil''' &ndash; ''optional'' &ndash; for artillery, the recoil system used.
 
* '''carriage''' &ndash; ''optional'' &ndash; for artillery, the type of carriage used. 
 
* '''elevation''' &ndash; ''optional'' &ndash; for artillery, the vertical range of possible firing angles. 
 
* '''traverse''' &ndash; ''optional'' &ndash; for artillery, the horizontal range of possible firing angles. 
 
 
 
Bladed weapon specification parameters (only available if '''is_bladed''' is set to "''yes''"):
 
* '''blade_type''' &ndash; ''optional'' &ndash; for bladed weapons (e.g. swords), a description of the blade. 
 
* '''hilt_type''' &ndash; ''optional'' &ndash; for bladed weapons (e.g. swords), a description of the hilt.

* '''head_type''' &ndash; ''optional'' &ndash; for blunt or striking weapons (e.g. axes, polearms, or maces), a description of the head. 
 
* '''haft_type''' &ndash; ''optional'' &ndash; for blunt or striking weapons (e.g. axes, polearms, or maces), a description of the haft.
 
 
 
Vehicle specification parameters (most only available if '''is_vehicle''' is set to "''yes''"; some are also activated if '''is_missile''' is set to "''yes''"):
 
* '''armour''' &ndash; ''optional'' &ndash; the [[vehicle armour|armour plating]] of the vehicle; different armour thickness at different points may be indicated if needed.
