PERSPECTIVES ON LOGISTIC SUPPORT IN THEATRES OF OPERATIONS

Providing logistic support for the national contingents that carry out missions in the multinational theatres of operations, as far as NATO is concerned, represents a national responsibility, sustained for standardisation, efficiency and effectiveness by an integrated multinational logistic support that takes place through a specialised logistic support, of one nation in a certain domain, through the logistic support of the leading nation. Currently, to provide the logistic support that is needed for contingents, Romania is in charge of: the technique and material stockage, in keeping with NATO classes of supply; specific spare parts; maintenance; ammunition and explosives; lubricants and special fluids; medicines and medical materials; pieces of equipment; consumable supplies, as well as transportation of contingents in/from theatres of operations.
