Required Operational Capability (ROC) for a 40mm High Velocity Practice Round Number Ins 1.09.

Abstract

There is currently no effective 40mm High Velocity Practice Round. The use of service ammunition in training is not always desirable due to cost and range limitations. The 40mm HVPR is needed in order to maintain training proficiency on 40mm high velocity systems at a minimum cost to the US Government. The Mk19 MOD 3 40mm grenade machinegun will be fielded in FY 85. The weapons will be employed by combat, combat support, and combat service support units of the Army, the Air Force Security Police, an within US Marine Divisions. This document included the required operational capability, the distribution list, and the tri-service training Device Letter of Requirement. The letter gives the statement of need, the justification, principal characteristics, testing required, logistics support implications, training assessment, manpower/force structure assessment, other service or allied nation interest, and the life cycle cost assessment for 40mm HVPR.
