Drove the retail game headless (Canary + lavapipe, vgamepad) to the Ready Room Arsenal and read the Gallery-Mode DATA SHEET for every weapon the 5%-progress save reveals. Two UI->field mappings are CONFIRMED against weapons whose values ARE on disc: Ammo Capacity == LoadingCount (9/9 exact matches) Max. Lock Ons == TriggerShotCount (FALCON 9AM 12 == wep_02; BUZZARD 22 == wep_04) That makes the panel an oracle for fields the disc leaves defaulted, and it is shown for undeveloped weapons too, so no points need spending. Recovered TriggerShotCount for wep_05 and wep_60 (both 4, on-disc absent), and bracketed the defaulted Power / MaximumRange via the Range/Damage letter classes. Ruled out first: the defaults are not in hidden/DefTables.pak (no WEAPON-schema objects there) nor in the localized GP_MAIN_GAME_* duplicates. Also adds the two analysis examples that produce the shopping list of defaulted fields, the screenshot harness used to drive the menus, and the evidence PNGs.

Confidence: ✅ CONFIRMED · 🟡 PROBABLE · ❔ HYPOTHESIS. See README.
Formats we've already reversed are, for now, documented by their parser + disc round-trip
tests (the executable spec) rather than a prose file — the "Spec" column points there.
Promote to a prose structures/…md file when a format needs behavioural notes beyond layout.

| XBG7 mesh | 🟡/❔ | sylpheed-formats/src/mesh.rs + tests/mesh_disc.rs (xbg7) |
weapons/props: declaration-driven variable stride (36 models), GPU-confirmed. Stage containers: 5662 sub-models across 22 stages via content-anchored grouped pools (stage_models). Quantized hero bodies (DeltaSaber f004) still declined |
| Capital-ship part placement | 🟡 | sylpheed-formats/src/ship.rs (static) + runtime capture |
hull placement static-exact; external parts approximate statically. Runtime capture (Canary F10 → VS-constant WorldView) gives ground truth — validated on e106 destroyer; not yet baked into the viewer |
| Weapon fields defaulted on disc | ✅/🟡 | runtime DATA SHEET | The Arsenal Gallery-Mode panel reads the live record: Ammo Capacity = LoadingCount ✅, Max. Lock Ons = TriggerShotCount ✅. Recovers TriggerShotCount for wep_05/wep_60 (both 4); brackets defaulted Power/MaximumRange via the letter classes. 9 of ~61 weapons reachable at 5 % save progress |
