A Case for Change in the Management of Class V

摘要

The Army's ammunition organizations have performed effectively during more than 10 years of war. In the austere operational environment of Afghanistan-a landlocked, mountainous, tribal land surrounded by enemies-those ammunition organizations ensured that Soldiers had the ammunition they needed while also providing ammunition to the war in Iraq. The Army's ammunition organizations developed and fielded new munitions, such as Excalibur, the advanced precision mortar initiative, and the enhanced performance round, and developed procedures to supply our allies with Soviet-style munitions.
