1. Some of the ammunition destroyed every year is problem ammunition. There is no other way to destroy these ammunition. Training with them is a crime against soldiers! There are also some obsolete ammunition with matching equipment, such as 56 semi-automatic ammunition. Which army is still using this kind of broken gun now? Then, with the equipment of 95 and 03, a large number of 8 1 bars were retired and sealed, so the training consumption was naturally less, and the stored ammunition had to be destroyed when it expired.
2. The standard of reserve is based on the consumption level under the conditions of war. The storage quantity not only considers the actual consumption, but also considers the expansion of troops and the damage loss of the enemy. The number is unimaginable, and the consumption of active military training cannot be compared with combat. Therefore, it is impossible to consume ammunition stored according to operational requirements by training, and only destroy it when it expires.
Army training is based on the outline, not only shooting, but also shooting is not the core of all troops. With the development of technology, there are more and more combat support forces such as communication and electronic forces, and the proportion of logistics forces is also increasing year by year, so it is impossible to consume much ammunition.
4. Barrels have a long service life, especially tank guns with high bore pressure. The barrel only lasts five or six seconds. If you play too much at ordinary times, the consumption of barrels will be large and uneconomical.
5. In fact, the safety of conventional ammunition destruction is very high, and it is difficult to blow up after the fuze is dismantled. The bomb disposal accident mainly lies in eliminating inferior bombs, duds, unknown explosives, and old bombs corroded to the point where the fuze cannot be dismantled. However, the probability of accidents in live-fire shooting is actually greater than that in demolition, and there is the possibility of accidental injury in shooting and the danger of explosion in ammunition firing.
6. Finally, destroying ammunition is not throwing away garbage, nor can it be simply understood as waste water, let alone blowing it up. Ammunition disassembly is a technical activity, which can maximize the recovery of useful parts such as metals in ammunition. Sometimes, parts such as shell casings can be directly recycled like wine bottles, and can be reused with a primer and propellant, but not with live ammunition. Fired shells can only be recycled as scrap metal, and the warhead part is more difficult to recycle.
