Transportability for Better Strategic Mobility. A Guide to Engineering for Transportability

摘要

Properly applied transportability engineering is essential to the deployment of Army equipment. An item of equipment is of little value if it cannot be transported rapidly and efficiently to where it is needed. This pamphlet is a guide to transportability. It is intended for everyone interested in transportability: decision makers, material developers, combat developers, equipment designers and users, logisticians, and transporters. It is not designed to make you an instant transportability expert, but to help you understand the Engineering for Transportability program and the various transport modes.
