MIL-STD-1660 Test of Modified MIL-STD-1322-806 (M2A1 Metal Can W/O wirebound Box)

Abstract

The U.S. Army Defense Ammunition Center and School (USADACS), Evaluation Division (SMCAC-DEV), has been tasked to test the possibility of stacking demolition charges in M2A1 cans in configurations of two or more high on a pallet. Under project no. FSA-146-75, the Storage and Outloading Division (SMCAC-DEO) modified MIL-STD-1322-806 for M2A1 cans in configurations of two-and three-high on a pallet. The methods and results of MIL-STD-1660 testing and APE 1958 leak testing of the unitization procedure described in modified MIL-STD-1322-806 are contained within this report. As a result of these tests, it was found that the referenced procedure did not satisfactorily project the M2A1 containers in the unitized load. Keywords: Packaging; Unitization; Pallets; Ammunition.
