The MIL-STD-1366E standard, developed by the US Department of Defense, describes the basic portability interface criteria for use in the development and shipment of material items in accordance with the Department of Defense Mobility Engineering program. This standard requires new and modified systems to meet the interface requirements of the Defense Transport System (roads, tunnels, bridges, railways, etc.) ships, barges and the like) covers size and weight limitations for all modes of transport.
This standard also covers lifting and lashing provisions, containerization criteria, overloading, assembly and disassembly, air delivery, shelter criteria, portability testing, and modeling and simulation of the shipping environment. This standard permits material development and procurement activities to design military equipment to meet the portability requirements of various modes.
Essentially, the military transportation environment is divided into four general modes of transport: road, rail, sea, and air. Each mode has its own specific design limitations and requirements. The MIL-STD-1366E standard covers these limitations and requirements. Road transportation is the most common and flexible mode of land transport and is essential for both strategic and tactical deployments, as well as daily operations. Road transportation can be used to move military equipment from its current location to loading ports.
Military load classification is calculated for military vehicles and is particularly important in determining whether the vehicle can pass safely. Classification numbers are mandatory for all military bridges, self-propelled vehicles with a total weight of 3 tons or more, as well as for all trailers with a load of 1.5 tons or more. Trailers with a rated capacity of less than 1.5 tonnes are often combined with towing vehicles for classification.
Among the numerous test, measurement, analysis and evaluation studies it provides for businesses in various sectors, our organization also provides test services in accordance with the interface standard for the defense department and portability criteria, within the scope of the MIL-STD-1366E standard, with its trained and expert staff and advanced technological equipment. .
