Purpose and scope a. This technical bulletin (TB) provides dimensions, weight, and cube of military vehicles, vehicle-mounted equipment, and other outsize/overweight equipment. Staff, command, and field organizations use this data for standard reference in developing and reporting movement requirements. The data is specif-ically oriented to unit movement transportability/de-ployability considerations and is designed for compat-ibility with the Forces Command (FORSCOM) Computerized Movement Planning and Status System (COMPASS); Joint Operations Planning and Execu-tion System (JOPES); DOD Regulation R; and AR 71 32. b. This publication consists of all outsized/over-weight equipment having dimensions and weight equal to or exceeding 104 inches long, 84 inches wide, 50 inches high, and 5,000 pounds.

6 These crite-ria define the minimum reporting standards necessary to provide a basis for identifying cargo with potential transportability limitations. Data for all equipment, including those that are less than the above criteria, are listed in the TEA web application, Standard Char-acteristics (Dimensions, Weight, and Cube) for Transportability of Military Vehicles and Equipment. The technical bulletin is located at c. The data in this publication applies primarily to equipment included in Army table of organization and equipment (TOE) or modified tables of organiza-tion and equipment (MTOE) plus Navy tables of al-lowance (TOA) for the Naval Construction Force (NCF). Data for other end-items listed in Supply Bul-letin ( SB) 700-20 are included when available. Every effort is made to maintain current TOE line item number (LIN) assignments according to SB 700-20 and national stock number (NSN) assignments ac-cording to the Army Master Data File (AMDF).

7 D. The Surface Deployment and distribution Com-mand Transportation Engineering Agency (SDDCTEA) is the Army central point of con-tact for obtaining vehicle/equipment air transport cer-tification from Headquarters Air Force Material Command (HQ AFMC), Aeronautical Systems Cen-ter (ASC). Army units requiring airlift certifica-tion should, per DOD , forward their requests to Dir ector, SDDCTEA, ATTN: SDTE-DPE , Build-ing 1900W, 1 Soldier Way, Scott AFB, IL 62225, with an information copy to Commander, FOR-SCOM, ATTN: AFOP-OCP -FS, G3/5/7 MCS COMPASS, 4700 Knox Street Fort Bragg, NC 28310. The Navy central point of contact for ob-taining airlift certification for Civil Engineer Support Equipment (CESE) is Commanding Officer, Naval Fa-cilities Expeditionary Logistics Center, Code N442, CESE Management Branch, Building 1000, 23d Ave-nue, Port Hueneme, CA 93043.

8 1 2. Definitions a. Cargo Group Code. This code is applied to ve-hicles and vehicle-mounted equipment for use with the Air Mobility Command (AMC) type unit load program. Appendix C lists the cargo group code cri-teria and assignment of vehicles to Army model des-ignation, shipping configuration, and TOE LIN to in-clude dimensions (length, width, height) and weight. b. Civil Engineer Support Equipment (CESE) (Navy). CESE is a procurement budget term referring to equipment for which COMNAVFACENGCOM has the responsibility for determining requirements, procuring, and assigning. The equipment includes automotive vehicles (including tactical), construc-tion, railway, firefighting, and mobile weight han-dling equipment. Weight handling equipment such as portal, gantry, jib, and other facility cranes are nor-mally not classified as CESE. c. Disassembled Component. A component re-moved from an end-item , reducing the item s ship-ping configuration.

9 D. Line Item Number (LIN). (1) Army. A six-character alphanumeric identifi-cation assigned to a generic nomenclature to describe collectively all NSN items possessing the functional capability expressed by the LIN description. It is used as the basic reference in Army equipment au-thorization documents, such as, TOE, MTOE, com-mon table of allowances (CTA), and table of distri-bution and allowances (TDA). TB 55 46 1/ NAVFAC P 1055 1 2 (2) Navy. Navy equipment is identified by a six-digit equipment code (EC). Each EC describes a ge-neric category of equipment. (3) Specific Combinations of Equipment for the Autom ated Air Load Planning System/Air Load Mod-ule (AALPS/ALM). Union LINs are no longer ac-cepted through COMPASS. (4) Fictitious LINs. Fictitious LINs are assigned to authorized NSN items of equipment that do not have an assigned LIN. The use of a fictitious LIN enables entry of that item into this bulletin.

10 These fictitious LINs, denoted with the prefix YA , are prohibited for use in authorization documents. e. National Stock Number (NSN). The NSN con-sists of a 13-digit number assigned by Defense Logis-tics Services Center. The first four digits of the NSN are known as a Federal Supply Classification (FSC) code and the last nine digits are referred to as the Na-tional Item Identification Number (NIIN). The NIIN fixes the identity of the particular item of supply. f. Naval Construction Force (NCF ) (Navy). The ge-neric term applies to that group of deployable naval organizational components, primarily, Naval Mobile Construction Battalions (NMCB), that have the com-mon characteristics of processing the capability to perform construction projects for the Navy. The NCF is composed of both active and reserve units. Once mobilized there is no distinction made between active and reserve units.
