Transportability Test of M467 and M613 Containers on High Mobility Multipurpose Wheeled Vehicle (HMMWV)

Abstract

The U.S. Army Defense Ammunition Center and School (USADACS) was requested by the U.S. Army Armament, Munitions and Chemical Command (AMCCOM) to conduct a series of transportability tests to develop/evaluate tiedown procedures for the M467 container(s) and for the M613 container(s) on the M998 High Mobility Multipurpose Wheeled Vehicle (HMMWV). Using web strap tiedown assemblies, test loads with either one or two of the two type containers, successfully completed the USADACS five step road hazard course. An approved securement procedure was established for movement of the M467 and M613 containers on the HMMWV. (KT)
