DSB TRANSPORTATION AND LOADING PLANS
Section I. TRANSPORTATION
11.1.1 DSB Transportability
The DSB system is fully transportable by road, its components have been designed to be carried
on M1077 flatracks by M1977 CBT, M1075, vehicles and M1076 trailers. The DSB System, is
capable of constructing one 40 meter span or two 20 meter spans, is transported by four trucks
and four trailers including the launcher and its trailer. The combination is shown in Figure 11. 86.
11.2.1.1
The launcher is mounted on an Oshkosh M1075 PLS chassis. The launch vehicle
general arrangement is shown in Figure 11. 1. The launch vehicle can be driven on
North American and foreign roads but as it exceeds the width requirement of 96
inches for un-restricted CONUS transport, as defined in MIL-STD-1366D section
5.1.2.1, it may be subject to restriction or require permits. The overall length is less
than the 40 feet restriction imposed in many States for straight trucks and the height
is below 13.5 feet (4-meters).
11.2.1.2
Summary of dimensional data is presented in Table 11. 1. Weight data is given in
