M35 Truck.
When OMTS shelters cannot be
transported over the highway on M35 trucks, because of
distance involved or other considerations, shipment may
be made with either commercial or military flatbed
trailers or cargo trucks of adequate size and capacity.
For unrestricted height clearance, the shelter is removed
from the cargo truck and loaded separately.
The cargo
truck height must be reduced so that, when it is
combined with the semitrailer loading-surface height,
the unrestricted height limit is not exceeded.
Figures 5-
4 through 5-6 provide blocking and tiedown details for
the ROLAND missile system components.
Tables 5-5
and 5-6 provide bills of materials, and tables 5-7 and 5-
8, data on the application of these materials.
