Integrated Engineering and Service Test of Tank, Collapsible, Self-Supporting, 5,000-Barrel (Temperate)

Abstract

An Integrated Engineering and Service Test of Tank, Collapsible, Self-Supporting, 5,000-Barrel (Temperate) was conducted to determine technical performance and safety characteristics of the tank and its associated tools and equipment and to determine the suitability of the item and its maintenance package for use by the Army. It was concluded that: the tank meets the requirements of the SDR except as indicated and is suitable for use by the U. S. Army under intermediate climatic conditions; technical performance characteristics are satisfactory; the mission of handling POL product was adequately demonstrated; maintenance features of the tank are compatible with TOE organizational capabilities; no contingencies arose in transporting the crated test item and accessories by railcar, appropriate standard military vehicles, or oceangoing vessels; safety aspects of the test items were confirmed; and the test item is capable of being relocated once during its service life.
