Ammunition supply chain
The ammunition supply chain involves the processes of designing, producing, storing, distributing, and delivering ammunition to military or authorized users. It begins with manufacturers crafting different types of ammunition, which are then stored in warehouses. Logistics providers coordinate transportation—by land, sea, or air—to deliver supplies to various military bases or operational zones. Throughout, inventory management ensures the right amount of ammunition is available when needed, avoiding shortages or excess. Effective supply chain management ensures timely, secure, and reliable delivery of ammunition, critical for operational readiness and safety in defense activities.
