Each individual airplane would have it's own unique charting for weight and balance recorded. And this record would be updated regularly with every modification such as equipment added or removed to include paint. At least in peace time.

What your really looking for is the operating limits, what is the maximum aft and forward limits for that type, at fully armed and fueled combat loads to stripped and empty. The reason they do it with full and empty is your limits are usually dependent upon weight. As you lose weight via fuel burn and weapons release, your overall allowable forward and aft CG limitations can and usually do shift.

So it's not a simple subject and the behavior is very much dynamic with conditions of flight.
