Munitions items in non-standard packages will be placed in what condition code?

• A. Condition Code J
• B. Condition Code A
• C. Condition Code E, unless a more restrictive condition code applies
• D. Condition Code F

Answer: (C)

When an item isn’t in standard packaging, it isn’t ready for issue and needs additional handling and verification before it can be released. The default way to reflect that status is to assign a condition code that indicates not serviceable for issue due to packaging irregularity, with the understanding that a more restrictive code can be applied if inspection shows a greater problem.

Thus, the item is placed in Code E, unless a more restrictive condition code applies. This keeps the munition out of circulation, flags it for repackaging or further inspection, and ensures safety and traceability until packaging issues are resolved.
