While corrosion is typically associated with rusting of metals, it can also include deterioration of other
materials, such as rubber and plastic. Unusual cracking, softening, swelling, or breaking of these
materials may be a corrosion problem.
If a corrosion problem is identified, it can be reported using Standard Form SF 368, Product Quality
Deficiency Report. Use of keywords such as "corrosion,” "rust," "deterioration," or "cracking" will
ensure that the information is identified as a CPC problem. The form should be submitted to the
address specified in DA PAM 738-750, Functional Users Manual for the Army Maintenance
Management System (TAMMS).
GENERAL INFORMATION:
Objective. Methods of destruction used to inflict damage on airborne platforms should make it
impossible to restore the damaged equipment to a usable condition in a zone by either repair or
cannibalization.
Authority. Destruction of air delivery equipment that is in imminent danger of capture by an enemy
is a command decision that must be made by a battalion commander or higher or the equivalent.
Training. All personnel who use or perform such functions as rigging, packing, maintenance, or
storage of air delivery equipment should receive thorough training on air delivery equipment
destruction procedures and methods. The destruction methods demonstrated during training should
be simulated. Upon completion of training, all applicable personnel should be thoroughly familiar with
air delivery equipment destruction methods and be capable of performing destruction without
immediate reference to any publication.
SPECIFIC METHODS:
Specific methods of destroying Army materiel to prevent enemy use shall be by mechanical means,
fire, or by use of natural surroundings.
Destruction by Mechanical Means. Air delivery equipment metal assemblies, parts, and packing
aids shall be destroyed using hammers, bolt cutters, files, hacksaws, drills, screwdrivers, crowbars,
or other similar devices used to smash, break, bend or cut.
WARNING
Destruction by Fire. Items that can be destroyed by fire shall be burned. The destruction of
equipment by use of fire is and effective method of destroying low melting point metal items (e.g.,
side rails, threaded portions of nuts and bolts, and platforms). However, mechanical destruction
should be completed first, whenever possible, before initiating destruction by fire. When items to be
destroyed are made of metal or textile materials (or some comparable low combustible material), they
should be packed under and around the items, then soaked with a flammable petroleum product and
ignited. Proper concentration of equipment that is suitable for burning will provide a hotter and more
destructive fire.
Destruction by Use of Natural Surroundings. Small vital parts of assemblies, that are easily
accessible, may be disposed of as follows: Disposal or denial of equipment to an enemy may be
accomplished through use of natural surroundings. Accessible vital parts of assemblies may be
removed and scattered through dense foliage, buried in dirt or sand, or thrown into a lake, stream, or
other body of water. Total submersion of equipment in a body of water will provide water damage as
well as concealment. Salt water will inflict extensive damage to air delivery equipment.
WARRANTY INFORMATION
The Type V and Dual Row Airdrop Platform do not contain warranty provisions.
The type V platform weighs approximately 100-pounds per foot of length. Use extreme caution in
lifting and handling.
The dual row platform weighs approximately 89-pounds per foot of length. Use extreme caution in
lifting and handling.
Safety. Use care in handling platforms as exposed metal parts could cause painful injuries.
Never walk near or crawl beneath raised platforms. Do not use fingers to align bolt holes. Steel toe
boots are highly recommended when working with the type V and dual row platforms and component
parts.
Care and Handling. Every effort shall be made to protect the platforms from weather elements,
dust, dirt, oil, grease, and acid. When available, a building should be used to store platforms.
Platforms will be stacked, utilizing dunnage, in a dry, well-ventilated location and protected from
pilferage, dampness, fire and dirt. Be careful not to damage side rails.

are listed and illustrated in WP 0020 00 of this manual.
INITIAL RECEIPT
Both the type V and dual row airdrop platform is received disassembled with components packed
separately.
General Procedures for Air Delivery Equipment. When air delivery equipment is initially procured from
a supply source and issued to a using unit, the item(s) will be unpacked from the shipping container(s)
and inspected by a qualified parachute rigger (MOS 92R). The inspection performed will be a technical/
rigger-type inspection and will be conducted as outlined in the Preventive Maintenance Checks and
Services (PMCS) procedures. Upon completion of the inspection, the item(s) will be tagged as
prescribed in DA PAM 738-751. Serviceable equipment may then be entered either into storage or into
use in airdrop operations, as applicable. An unserviceable item will be held and reported, in accordance
with DA PAM 738-750.
Inspection Personnel. Personnel other than parachute rigger personnel may assist in the unpacking
process of initially received components, as directed by the local air delivery equipment maintenance
officer. However, the maintenance officer will ensure the entire unpacking effort is conducted under the
direct supervision of a qualified parachute rigger (MOS 92R).
0003 00-1
TM 10-1670-268-20&P 0003 00
Unpacking. Position all components as near as practical to the location where the platform is to be
assembled. Removed and discard packing from the components.
Checking Unpacked Equipment. When type V or dual row components are received from a designed
supply source, parts shall be given an inspection (WP 0006 00) by the using unit prior to being placed
into service.
1. Inspect the type V and dual row platform components for damage incurred during shipment. Report
the damage on a DD Form 6, Packing improvement Report. Remove all assembly components from
the containers and ensure that all items are accounted for and free of defects. Report damage or

c. The steps required for the assembly of the major components of the type V airdrop platform are
as follows:
(1) Construct a flat structure of sufficient mass and strength to support the weight of the
platform at a safe, convenient work height. Ensure that the surface design allows for the
clearance of the tie down rings. Ensure the structure is long enough and wide enough to
accommodate the size of the platform being constructed. This allows each panel surface
to lay flat and helps to keep the assembled platform flat.
NOTE
Approximately 24-Inch

MAINTENANCE ALLOCATION CHART (MAC)
INTRODUCTION
The MAC (immediately following the introduction) designates overall authority and responsibility for the
performance of maintenance functions on the identified end item or component. The application of the
maintenance functions to the end item or component will be consistent with the capacities and capabilities
of the designated maintenance levels, which are shown in the MAC in column (4) as:
The tools and test equipment requirements (immediately following the MAC) list the tools and test
equipment (both special tools and common tool sets) required for each maintenance function as referenced
from the MAC.
The remarks (immediately following the tools and test equipment requirements) contain supplemental
instructions and explanatory notes for a particular maintenance function.
Maintenance Functions
Maintenance functions are limited to and defined as follows:
1. Inspect. To determine the serviceability of an item by comparing its physical, mechanical, and/or
electrical characteristics with established standards through examination (e.g., by sight, sound, feel).
This includes scheduled inspection and gagings and evaluation of canon tubes.
3. Service. Operations required periodically to keep an item in proper operating condition, e.g., to clean
(includes decontaminate, when required), to preserve, to drain, to paint, or to replenish fuel, lubricants,
chemical fluids, or gases. This includes scheduled exercising and purging of recoil mechanisms.
4. Adjust. To maintain or regulate, within prescribed limits, by bringing into proper or exact position, or by
setting the operating characteristics to specified parameters.
5. Align. To adjust specified variable elements of an item to bring about optimum or desired performance.
7. Remove/Install. To remove and install the same item when required to perform service or other
maintenance functions. Install may be the act of emplacing, seating, or fixing into position a spare,
repair part, or module (component or assembly) in a manner to allow the proper functioning of an
equipment or system.
8. Replace. To remove an unserviceable item and install a serviceable counterpart in its place.
“Replace” is authorized by the MAC and assigned maintenance level is shown as the third position
code of the Source, Maintenance, and Recoverability (SMR) code.
NOTE
The following definitions are applicable to the “repair” maintenance function:
Fault location/troubleshooting – The process of investigating and detecting the cause of equipment
malfunctioning; the act of isolating a fault within a system or Unit Under Test (UUT).
10. Overhaul. That maintenance effort (service/action) prescribed to restore an item to a completely
serviceable/operational condition as required by maintenance standards in appropriate technical
publications. Overhaul is normally the highest degree of maintenance performed by the Army.
Overhaul does not normally return an item to like new condition.
11. Rebuild. Consists of those services/actions necessary for the restoration of unserviceable equipment
to a like new condition in accordance with original manufacturing standards. Rebuild is the highest
degree of materiel maintenance applied to Army equipment. The rebuild operation includes the act of
returning to zero those age measurements (e.g., hours/miles) considered in classifying Army
equipment/components.
Column (1) – Group Number. Column (1) lists FGC numbers, the purpose of which is to identify
maintenance significant components, assemblies, subassemblies, and modules with the Next Higher
Assembly (NHA).
Column (2) – Component/Assembly. Column (2) contains the item names of the components, assemblies,
subassemblies, and modules for which maintenance is authorized.
Column (3) – Maintenance Function. Column (3) lists the functions to be performed on the item listed in
column (2). (For a detailed explanation of these functions refer to “Maintenance Functions” outlined
above.)
Column (4) – Maintenance Level. Column (4) specifies each level of maintenance authorized to perform
each function listed in column (3), by indicating work time required (expressed as man-hours in whole
hours or decimals) in the appropriate sub-column. This work time figure represents the active time required
to perform that maintenance function at the indicated level of maintenance. If the number or complexity of
the tasks within the listed maintenance function varies at different maintenance levels, appropriate work
time figures are to be shown for each level. The work time figure represents the average time required to
restore an item (assembly, subassembly, component, module, end item, or system) to a serviceable
condition under typical field operating conditions. This time includes preparation time (including any
necessary disassembly/assembly time), troubleshooting/fault location time, and quality assurance time in
addition to the time required to perform the specific tasks identified for the maintenance functions
authorized in the MAC. The symbol designations for the various maintenance levels are as follows:
NOTE
The “L” maintenance level is not included in column (4) of the MAC. Functions to this
level of maintenance are identified by a work time figure in the “H” column of column (4),
and an associated reference code is used in the REMARKS column (6). This code is
keyed to the remarks and the SRA compete repair application is explained there.
Column (5) – Tools and Equipment Reference Code. Column (5) specifies, by code, those common tool
sets (not individual tools), common Test, Measurement, and Diagnostic Equipment (TMDE), and special
tools, special TMDE and special support equipment required to perform the designated function. Codes

Column 6, Description and Usable on Code (UOC). This column includes the following information:
1. The federal item name and, when repaired, a minimum description to identify the item.
2. P/Ns for bulk materials are referenced in this column in the line entry for the to be manufactured or
fabricated.
3. Hardness Critical Item (HCI). A support item that provides the equipment with special protection from
electromagnetic pulse (EMP) damage during a nuclear attack.
4. The statement END OF FIGURE appears just below the last item description in column (6) for a given
figure in both the repair parts list and special tools list work packages.
Column 7, QTY. The QTY (quantity per figure) column indicates the quantity of the item used in the
breakout shown on the illustration/figure, which is prepared for a functional group, sub-functional group, or
an assembly. A “V” appearing in the column instead of a quantity indicates that the quantity is variable and
quantity may change from application to application.
EXPLANATION OF COLUMNS
STOCK NUMBER Column. This column lists the NSN by National Item Identification Number (NIIN)
sequence. The NIIN consists of the last nine digits of the NSN, i.e.
NSN
5305-01-574-1467
NIIN
When using this column to locate an item, ignore the first 4 digits of the NSN. However, the
complete NSN should be used when ordering items by stock number.
FIG. column. This column lists the number of the figure where the item is identified/located. The figures
are in numerical order in the repair parts list and special tools list work packages.
ITEM column. The item number identifies the item associated with the figure listed in the adjacent FIG.
column. This item is also identified by the NSN listed on the same line.
FIG. Column. This column lists the number of the figure where the item is identified/located in the repair
parts list and special tools list work packages.

ITEM Column. The item number is the number assigned to the item as it appears in the figure referenced in
the adjacent figure number column.
SPECIAL INFORMATION
The Usable on Code title appears in the lower right corner of column (5), Description. Usable on codes are
shown in the right-hand margin of the description column. Identification of the usable on codes used in the
RPSTL are:
Fabrication Instructions. Bulk materials required to manufacture items are listed in the bulk material
functional group of this RPSTL. Part numbers for bulk material are also referenced in the Description
Column of the line item entry for the item to be manufactured/fabricated. Detailed fabrication instructions
for items source coded to be manufactured or fabricated are found in this TM.
Index Numbers. Items which have the word BULK in the figure column will have an index number shown in
the item number column. This index number is a cross-reference between the NSN / P/N index work
packages and the bulk material list in the repair parts list work package.
Illustration List. The illustrations in this RPSTL contain unit authorized items. Illustrations published in this
TM that contain unit authorized items also appear in this RPSTL. The tabular list in the repair parts list work
package contains only those parts coded “O” in the third position of the SMR code, therefore, there may be
a break in the item number sequence.
First. Using the table of contents, determine the assembly group or sub-functional group to which the item
belongs. This is necessary since the figures are prepared for functional groups and sub-assembly groups,
and lists are divided into the same groups.
Second. Find the item covering the figure covering the functional group or sub-functional group to which
the item belongs.
Third. Identify the item on the figure and note the number(s).
Fourth. Look in the repair parts list work packages for the figure and item numbers. The NSNs and part
numbers are on the same line as the associated item numbers.
0021 00-7
TM 10-1670-268-20&P 0021 00
First. If you have the NSN, look in the STOCK NUMBER column of the NSN index work package. The
NSN is arranged in NIIN sequence. Note the figure and item number next to the NSN.
Second. Turn to the figure and locate the item number. Verify that the it is the one you are looking for.
First. If you have the P/N and not the NSN, look in the PART NUMBER column of the P/N index work
package. Identify the figure and item number.
Second. Look up the item on the figure in the applicable repair parts list work package.
