Standard UTCs are used for deployment planning data that will be used to deploy personnel and cargo.

• A. False
• B. Only personnel
• C. Only cargo
• D. True

Answer: (D)

In deployment planning, standard Unit Type Codes provide a standardized representation of a force’s packaging, including both personnel and equipment. These codes enable planners to describe and match the full mix of people and cargo that can be deployed, ensuring consistent data across movements and allocations. Because UTCs cover both manpower and materiel, the statement that they are used for deployment planning data to deploy personnel and cargo is true.

The options that limit UTCs to only personnel or only cargo don’t fit, since UTCs describe complete capability packages that include both elements.
