The U.S. Army Defense Ammunition Center and School (USADACS), Validation Engineering Division (SMCAC-DEV), was tasked by USADACS, Logistics Engineering Office (SMCAC-DE), to verify rail transportation of 120mm tank ammunition in MILVANs. Tests were conducted following dunnage failure during rail movement of an untested blocking and bracing procedure authorized by the Transportation Engineering Division (SMCAC-DET). These failures occurred during blocking and bracing against the MILVAN doors on ammunition returning from Saudi Arabia (SA). Two blocking and bracing procedures were tested, with both procedures failing during testing. As such, blocking and bracing against MILVAN doors was deemed unsuitable for safe railroad transportation of 120mm ammunition. This report contains details of the tests conducted.
