Spanish term
plato de fijación
Text is legal. The "plato de flijación" is on two submarines. The document is saying that X is wrong in seeking compensation ($100,000) for a "plato de fijación." There are many translations for "plato de f-" but they vary depending on the context: "assembly plate," "mounting plate," etc. This item might be related to an inertial navigation system - or it may not, i.e., at one point X is accused of wrongly seeking compensation for it in connection with the navigation system, but it is not clear what the connection is.
The basic idea seems to be one flat piece of metal that helps in attaching or connecting or mounting something else. But the names in English vary and it isn't clear just what this thing does.
Thanks.

mounting plate
I found this definition: Mounting plates are made specifically for mounting a piece of machinery within a fenced-in and protected utility distribution sub-station, in order to save field labor installation time, provide structural above the ground support. The following sentences use the term Mounting plate in the submarine context.
The batteries and mounting plate are positioned below the axis of the hull for automatically righting the submarine.
The submarine of claim 1, wherein said batteries are attached to a metal mounting plate positioned in channels inside said hull, wherein said bow section is detachable, and said mounting plate and said batteries are removable from said hull.
