Class/briefing that provides information on proper procedures for vehicle hardening. To counter threats, motor transport units may be provided with security forces and supporting arms firepower. Also, special vehicle-hardening techniques using sandbags and other improvised material have proved successful in protecting convoy personnel, equipment, and cargo. This lesson describes these techniques. Although effective, vehicle-hardening techniques must be tailored to fit the specific environment in which the motor transport units are operating. Topics covered include: use of sandbags, placement of sandbags, vehicle hardening, gun, trucks, mines, and booby traps.
