Zusammenfassung:Provided is an ammunition canister system that includes a can with an open interior and a mounting plate. A first and a second interior divider form three interior ammunition storage bays, while a three-to-one transition feed tray transitions belted ammunition contained in the bays to a single feed chute. The base of the can further includes loading pins, quick release locks, and lock pins, while the mounting plate includes mounting apertures, loading guides, quick release lock pin receiving apertures, and pin accepting apertures on the second side. The loading pins interface with the loading guides, the quick release locks interface with the quick release lock pin receiving apertures, and the lock pins interface with the pin accepting apertures to secure the ammunition canister to the mounting plate. The mounting plate enables the can to be mounted to the deck of helicopter or another vehicle.
