Dear Editor,
ProtectIng transmitting set target boards used in TOW and Dragon
training is a problem.
The boards are damaged in transit and in storage. So is the target
source.
We've cut down the damage consIderably with fabrIcated canvas
covers .
.. which are kept on whenever the boards are not in u±e.
We also added a foam pad that we enclosed in canvas over the area
of the target source.
The only materials needed A²re cotton duck canvas and the f³am
padding.
Each board needs approximately 3 square yards of canvas and a
12
x
16-in foam pad.
Canvas can be ordered with NSN 8305-00-170-3882,
´
which Gets
you a 36
x
3µ-in piece. Request 3 pieces for each cover you need.
