Air Transportable Shelters: Estimating the 1985 USAF Requirements.

Abstract

Air transportable shelters are vital elements in present USAF weapon systems, but standardization is needed. In 1975 a Joint Committee on Tactical Shelters (JOCOTAS) was established by DOD to effect this standardization: This report summarizes the USAF effort in this regard. Configuration requirements are analyzed in four major areas: transportation, natural environment, threat-imposed environment, and special mission considerations.
