The command's complex missions range from development of sophisticated weapons systems and cutting-edge research, to maintenance and distribution of spare parts. AMC operates the research, development and engineering centers; Army Research Laboratory; depots, arsenals and ammunition plants; and maintains the Army's Prepositioned Stocks, both on land and afloat. The command is the Department of Defense Executive Agent for the chemical weapons stockpile and for conventional ammunition.
