1. AMMO a) Start Status: 38.126 t b)Surplus of AMMO = destruction+ sale+ donation 15.768 t = 12.522 t + 2.643 t + 603 t • Rest (a - b) = 22.358 t • Current Status = perspective + surplus 22.358 t = 7.500 t + 14.858 t • Surplus of AMMO is 14.858 t Remarks: Gross tons = t

Efforts of MoD & AF BIH

Perspective Ammo cca 7.500 tons Non-perspective Storaged Amoo, cca 14.858 tons gross weight, Ammo & Surples Location (tons)

Decisions for Perspective ASS 10.391,0 cca 2.000 tons

Non-perspective ASS 11.513,0

Temporary ASS for 454,0 demilitarization

Efforts of MoD & AF BIH

2. WPNs/ARMs a) Start Status: 124.025 pcs b) Total Nb = Nb Necessary + Nb Unnecessary/sr 124.025 = 24.143 + 99.182 c)Surplus of WPNs = destruction + sale +donation 59.830 = 30.081 + 29.086 + 663 • Rest (99 182- 59 830) = 40.052 • Current Status - Surplus of WPNs are in total cca. 40.052 pcs

Efforts of MoD & A BIH

QUANTITY WEAPONS Perspective 24.143 pieces Non-perspective - surplus 40.052 pieces

TOTAL 64.195 pieces Current situation

The situation after the establishment of the Armed Forces B&H :

• Large amounts of surplus ammunition and arms

• Large number of ASS

• Insufficient number of professional personnel engaged in the management of stocks of ammunition and weapons

• The lack of a unified and well-developed system of training and education in this field – big progress (established ammo section / TRADOC AF BiH)

PSSM Capacity Building

Life-cycle management OSCE & UNDP Scope

• OSCE SECUP-BiH Project for upgrading of AF BiH Prospective SALW and Conventional Ammunition Storage Facilities (installation of new doors, lighting fire and intruder detection systems, alternate power supply source) • UNDP assistance in developing and enforcement of capability for destruction and delaboration of ammunition and weapons surplus (EXPLODE)

NATO HQ Sarajevo

• Primary Advisory Organization for MoD and JS AF BIH

• Overall coordination of Building and upgrading Management of Ammo & WPNS

12 EUFOR

• Assistance to Building Training Capability through 3M Training Concept in Force element „Management of Ammo & WPNS Storage Sites“ • Training through EUFOR MTT • Three modules: - Physical Security (CHE) - Record keeping and Inventory (SWE) - Ammunition handeling and maintening (AUT) • First generation of AF BIH trained instructors conducted training within AF BiH

• Training through EUFOR MTT

• Three modules: - Physical Security - Operation and maintenance of forklifts (CHE)

- Record keeping and Inventory (SWE) /published catalog of ammo/

- Handeling and maintenance of ammo - Chemical testing of gunpowder (AUT)

3. Trainings and education

Basic needs of the Armed Forces :

• Necessary substantial number of trained personnel, especially ammunition specialist • Still the majority of personnel managing the ASS would be made redundant

• To improve systematic way of training of large number of personnel

• Establish of permanent ASS personal structure

• All personnel which completed training, are already engaged in tasks for which they had obtained training

• Personnel who completed the course for technical inspectors are engaged in the process of 100% inspection of ammunition

• Personnel which completed the course for testing chemical stability of gun powder are already engaged in the process of testing chemical stability of the ammo.
