STANAG 4375 Survey – Review of Safety Drop Heights

The continued applicability of the Safety Drop Test described in STANAG 4375 has been discussed in light of increasing potential drop heights that ammunition and explosives are exposed to throughout the lifecycle, particularly in the naval environment.
 
As agreed at the Fall 2018 AC/326 SG/B and Main Group meetings, MSIAC have developed this survey to better understand the current safety drop height requirements for naval vessels and other scenarios for NATO nations.
 
The results of this survey will be used by the Custodians of STANAG 4375 to inform the next update of that standard.
