Within DoD, transportability is the keystone of strategic mobility and rapid deployment. Transportability is the inherent capability of material and unit equipment to be efficiently moved by existing or planned transportation assets. Transportability considerations for major weapon systems should begin during concept exploration, and transportability requirements are to be met by milestone III of the acquisition process. DoD has about 122 major weapon and support system programs in various stages of the acquisition process. Major weapon and support systems will have less value to DoD if they cannot be efficiently transported when needed.
