Additional Information for Ammunition and Explosives Additional Information for Ammunition and Explosives

NATO Supply Group (NSG) 13 encompasses a wide range of ammunition and explosives used by NATO member countries including the USA. It plays a crucial role in ensuring the effectiveness and compatibility of military forces across the alliance. Here's an overview of NSG 13:

Covered items:

  • Ammunition:
    • Small arms ammunition (up to 30mm)
    • Medium-caliber ammunition (over 30mm up to 75mm)
    • Large-caliber ammunition (over 75mm)
    • Mortar ammunition
    • Artillery ammunition
    • Anti-tank ammunition
    • Air defense ammunition
    • Naval ammunition
  • Explosives:
    • Demolition charges
    • Pyrotechnics
    • Grenades
    • Mines
    • Rockets
    • Missiles (excluding guided missiles)

Exclusions:

  • Guided missiles (classified under NSG 14)
  • Nuclear warheads (classified under NSG 11)
  • Chemical and biological weapons (prohibited by international treaties)

Management:

NSG 13 is managed by the NATO Standardization Agency (NSA) and is implemented through various standardization agreements and technical specifications. These documents ensure that NATO member countries use compatible ammunition and explosives, facilitating joint operations and logistics.

Benefits of NSG 13:

  • Interoperability: Enables seamless cooperation between NATO forces by ensuring compatible ammunition and explosives across different countries.
  • Standardization: Streamlines procurement and logistics by establishing common standards for ammunition and explosives.
  • Safety: Promotes safety through standardized procedures and safety protocols for handling and using ammunition and explosives.
  • Cost-effectiveness: Reduces costs by allowing for joint procurement and development of ammunition and explosives.

Relationship with US Federal Supply Group 13:

NSG 13 replaced US Federal Supply Group (FSG) 13 in 1956 when NATO (USA is a member) adopted the US Federal Logistics system, which covers the same range of ammunition and explosives. This alignment facilitates cooperation and collaboration between NATO and the US in the development, procurement, and use of ammunition and explosives.
