Transportability Testing of the Joint Modular Intermodal Platform (JMIP), TP-94-01, Transportability Testing Procedures

Abstract

The U.S. Army Defense Ammunition Center (DAC), Validation Engineering Division (SJMAC-DEV), was tasked by the Logistics Research and Development Activity (AMSRD-AAR-AIL-F), Picatinny Arsenal, NJ to conduct transportability retesting on the Joint Modular Intermodal Platform (JMIP) manufactured by SEA BOX Inc, East Riverton, NJ. The testing was conducted in accordance with TP-94-01, Revision 2, June 2004 "Transportability Testing Procedures." The major change on the JMIP from the unit previously tested (Report 06-04A2) was that the blocks and pins that hold the A-frame in the transport position were redesigned. The objective of the testing was to evaluate the Joint Modular Intermodal Platform (JMIP) when transportability tested in accordance with TP-94-01, Revision 2, June 2004 for use during the Limited Military Utility Assessment (LMUA). The retest was to determine if the JMIP could be transported on/off road in an intermodal container. Previously the JMIP had successfully completed the on/off road testing with a PLS truck (Report 06-04A1).
