Ammunition technology Bullets for Beginners Web page on bullets and how they work. It explains the meaning of low explosives and high explosives and discusses propellants. It also looks at storage and compatibility groups, the UNO classification system, and the chemical data of ordnance fillers. The site also links to further resources including the DoD Ammunition and Explosives Safety Standards DOD 6055.9-STD. Lessons from the North : Canada’s Privatization of Military Ammunition Production This web site provides access to the 2004 RAND monograph, MG-169-OSD, by W. Michael Hix, Bruce Held, and Ellen M. Pint. It looks at whether Canada's decision to privatise its government owned munition plants can be applied to the US Army's ammunition and ordnance manufacturing industry. The chapters look at privatisation towards the end of the twentieth century; military ammunition plants in the USA; ammunition manufacture in Canada; and the transformation of the Canadian industrial base. |
