RC Box Munitionslagerhause (MLH) 50

Comments/Design Considerations -
DDESB approved the construction of seventeen MLH 180, six MLH 90, and three MLH 50 at FSTS Grebenhain, Germany. Approval was on the basis of the 12 Dec 77 DDESB letter that determined the MLH design could be equated to a standard ECM. Separation distances were d=1.25W 1/3 (side to side) and d=2.00W 1/3 (front to rear), which were used at the time to site standard magazines. Approved maximum limit for this design is 77,900 kg (171,884 pounds). The minimum side to side distances used was 25m (82 feet).
