Shipping configurations consisted of: six equivalent mass missiles blocked and braced in a boxcar; four mass equivalent missiles in a Military Van (MILVAN) secured to a load and roll pallet (LRP) with commercial web straps; four inert missiles secured to a flatrack with metal strap; and four secured to a military M871 semitrailer with nuclear straps. Containerized modes of transportation were subjected to rail, road, and Shipboard Transportation Simulator (STS) tests.
