4.11 Protection levels. Unit load(s) shall provide the adequate level of protection based upon the expected environment. Levels of protection that apply to preservation and packing of DoD materiel is described in
MIL-STD-2073-1. More specific definitions of protection levels A, B, and C for ammunition unit loads are defined as follows:
4.11.1 Level A - tactical (Army), FIUL (Navy). (see 3.1.11.1) Unit loads designated Level A shall be designed to protect ammunition against direct exposure to all extremes of climatic, terrain, operational and transportation environments without protection other than that provided by the unit load. The conditions to be considered include, but are not limited to:
a. Multiple rough handling during transportation and in-transit storage from point of origin to ultimate user. b. Shock, vibration, and static loading during shipment.
c. Deck ship loading and offshore or over-the-beach discharge to ultimate user including transfer-at-sea. d. Environmental exposure during transit where port and warehouse facilities are limited or nonexistent. e. Outdoor storage in all climatic conditions for a minimum of 1 year.
f. Static loads imposed by stacking during shipment and 20-year storage.
4.11.2 Level B - intermediate (Army), domestic (Navy). (see 3.1.11.2) Unit loads designated Level B shall be designed to protect ammunition against physical damage and deterioration during favorable conditions of shipment, handling, and storage. This level of protection is typically used for OCONUS training ammunition. The conditions to be considered include, but are not limited to:
a. Multiple rough handling during transportation and in-transit storage.
b. Shock, vibration, and static loading of shipment worldwide by truck, rail, aircraft, or ocean transport. c. Favorable warehouse environment for a minimum of 18 months.
d. Environmental exposure during shipment and in-transit transfers, excluding deck loading and offshore cargo discharge.
