... , the full-scale MPT is expected to meet design The required processing rates are so low that extended throughput rates, and, even if it falls somewhat short of processing times due to lower ramp-up rates will have no design values, overall plant throughput is not expected to effect on overall plant munitions throughput. Thus, MPT be affected.
