This report was prepared to provide guidelines for the military design engineer in developing improved corrosion control techniques for military combat and tactical vehicles. It covers basic corrosion theory, principles of proper design and protective coatings for metals. The common forms of corrosion are reviewed and specific approaches to control of each type are suggested. Corrosion will be defined, for the purposes of this document, as unwanted chemical reaction between a metallic material and its environment, resulting in deterioration of strength or other properties essential to the performance of a given item or system. Partial contents: Fundamentals of Electrochemistry, Forms of Corrosion, Impingement, or Erosion, Corrosion, Protective Coatings, Stress Corrosion Cracking (S.C.C.), Welding and Joining, Special Considerations for Electrical and Electronic Equipment, Electroplating, Cladding (also known as roll-bonding), Hot-dip Coatings, Organic Coatings.

The Army spends approximately 2.4 billion of dollars annually in corrosion prevention and corrective maintenance of tactical wheeled vehicles. Billions more are invested in the recruitment, training and retention of the manpower needed to utilize and support this equipment. The products of these investments and their material properties are at risk of degradation due to corrosion. This paper will analyze and determine what critical, effective and appropriate actions could be taken in order to improve the Army's performance on issues related to corrosion prevention and control programs on tactical wheeled vehicles. In addition, this paper will analyze the effectiveness of the Army Corrosion Prevention and Control Strategic Plan, its key elements, prevention initiatives, current training, education, budget constraints, statutes and future policy changes. Finally, this paper will provide recommendations on how to educate and integrate operators, maintainers and workforce on preventing corrosion. Decision makers will then be better prepared to determine allocation of strategic resources, prioritize policy initiatives and assess options needed to improve corrosion prevention on tactical wheeled vehicles.
