CHAPTER 2
TRANSPORTABILITY DATA
SECTION I.
GENERAL
2-1.
Scope
This chapter provides a general description and identification photographs of the ROLAND missile system components,
as well as tabulated transportability characteristics, that are necessary in movement of the system.
2-2.
Description
a.
General.
The ROLAND missile system has two major components:
the XM1058 truck transporter (a modified 5-
ton truck) and the guided-missile intercept aerial fire unit.
The ROLAND missile system in its normal transport
configuration is shown in figure 2-1.
The fire unit has a fully traversable turret with missile launching tubes and
acquisition antennae, as shown in figures 2-2 and 2-3.
The complete fire unit is pallet mounted and can be removed
from the XM1058 truck transporter to the ground surface or loaded onto the truck transporter from the ground, as shown
in figure 2-4, without any crane or gantry.
b.
Support Equipment.
Support equipment for the ROLAND missile system consists of an organizational
maintenance test set (OMTS) stored and transported in two S280 shelters.
Each shelter can be transported on a 2-1/2-
ton cargo truck as shown in figure 2-5.
c.
ROLAND Missile Rounds
.
The ROLAND missile rounds are contained in a launch tube and placed in a wooden
overpack primarily for air transportation, long-term storage, and logistical handling, as shown in figure 2-6.
2-3.
Transportability Drawings
Detailed transportability drawings, side and end views, of the ROLAND missile system components and support shelters,
with dimensions and load-rating capacities of the tiedown and lift provisions, are shown in figures 2-6 through 2-15.
