scope:

This standard establishes general design guidelines and associated tests for the Joint Modular Intermodal Container (JMIC), a shipping configuration used by the DoD. For the remainder of this document, JMIC refers to any container, configuration, or platform meeting the requirements of this standard. Definitive requirements for specific JMICs will be defined by the individual performance specification, acquisition or task order. This standard is intended to be used as the basic reference document in all specifications and standards prescribing interface and testing requirements to be applied to a JMIC. Compliance with this intent is expected through normal application of the specification or standard preparation and revision processes.
