A need potentially exists for overpack containers for 115mm M55 Rockets. A single round overpack system has been designed and a series of tests were conducted, ultilizing M61 Rockets, to determine effect of the overpack on the previously-established Maximum Credible Event (MCE) for palletized M55 Rockets; and to provide data for storage hazard classification of rockets stored in the overpack containers. This paper presents results of those tests.
