GS Ammo Co (MOADS) (CSA)

Corps Storage Area

5000 x 8000
Near MSR, defensible
2
6000 x 7000 (40 km ) Near MSR or Railheads, defensible

.. depending on METT-T, CSAs need an estimated 40 square kilometers or more, preferably near primary MSRs or railheads. Road networks need to support up to 250 trailers arriving daily at
the CSA. There should be no more than 130 kilometers between CSAs and ATPs. CSG ammunition officers coordinate engineer support to construct storage sites and hardened roads.

DS Ammo Co (MOADS) (ASP)

2000 x 3600
Near MSR, defensible
2
Ammo Supply Point
3000 x 2000 (5:6 km )
Near MSR, defensible, Ammo Sling-out Area
depending on METT-T, ASPs may receive up to 60 semitrailer loads of ammunition daily In addition, an ammunition sling-out area, at least 25 meters square (larger for operations using
CH-47 helicopters), needs to be established approximately 550 meters from Class V storage and inhabited areas. The sling-out area provides for limited aerial resupply by rotary wing aircraft.
The distance between ASPs and CSAs should not exceed 100 kilometers. This distance derives from the maximum practical lime-haul distances of supporting medium truck companies.
