Who must ensure that customers outside the munitions unit are informed of suspended or restricted ammunition?

The munitions accountable systems officer (MASO) holds the responsibility for overseeing ammunition accountability and ensuring that all regulations regarding munitions are followed. This includes the critical task of communicating information about suspended or restricted ammunition to customers outside the munitions unit. By regulation, the MASO is tasked with preventing any potential mishandling or misuse of munitions, making them the key point of contact for such information.

This position requires a thorough understanding of the implications of suspending or restricting certain munitions, as it directly affects safety and operational readiness. Therefore, it is essential that the MASO effectively disseminates accurate and timely information to those who may be impacted by these changes, ensuring compliance across the board.
