Bulk Fuel Distribution System (BFDS)

Abstract

The Bulk Fuel Distribution System (BFDS) provides theater bulk petroleum distribution to maximize throughput to support early entry, buildup, and onward movement of forces. The BFDS consists of a 7,500 gallon line haul tanker trailer, pulled primarily by the M915A3 or later version tractor. The BFDS provides bulk distribution between large fuel storage areas and will include a automated level gauge sensor for mission command reporting and providing asset and in-transit visibility. The BFDS is not capable of off-road or retail operations.
