Book excerpt: This Army techniques publication (ATP) describes forward arming and refueling point (FARP) operations for aviation units. It provides aviation commanders, staff elements, aviation support battalions (ASBs), and forward support company (FSC) personnel with a comprehensive overview of the purpose, organization, and operation of a FARP. It also includes planning considerations for FARP setup and transportation planning considerations for Class III and V products. The principles in this ATP apply to all aviation units potentially involved in forward arming and refueling missions. The Combined Arms Support Command is the proponent for these operations and the military occupational specialties related to fueling and ammunition operations. This ATP specifies the unique procedures that ammunition, arming, and refueling personnel perform during FARP and rapid refuel operations in the primary assembly area (AA). Field manual (FM) 10-67-1 provides more detailed information on petroleum operations as well as applicable checklists. Units should ensure FARP personnel have the current version of FM 10-67-1 and this ATP available while conducting FARP operations. For more detailed information on ammunition operations, refer to FM 4-30.1.
