ammo dumps

Military explosive storage

Ammo dumps are military storage sites for ammunition and explosives.

The term combines ammo (short for ammunition) with dump in its sense of a storage depot.

These facilities range from temporary field positions to permanent installations: The airstrike targeted enemy ammo dumps behind the front lines.

The plural form is standard because military operations typically involve multiple such sites across a theater.
