Multiple Choice

Which unit does not have capabilities on BCT main weapon systems (M1, M2, M109)?

Maintenance of heavy main weapon systems in a BCT is handled by units that have the specialized tools, technicians, and test equipment to repair tanks, Bradley vehicles, and self-propelled howitzers. The Field Maintenance Company is organized for field-level fixes on general equipment and non-weapon systems, not the heavy, complex repairs required by M1, M2, and M109. That specialization is why this unit lacks capabilities on the main weapon systems, making it the best choice for the option that doesn’t support those weapons. The other units are structured around supporting weapon-system maintenance and the repair workflow, so they are the ones capable of handling MWS tasks.
