military cargo
Wartime freight shipment
Military cargo refers to supplies, equipment, and materials transported for armed forces operations.
This includes weapons, ammunition, vehicles, food, medical supplies, and personnel gear—anything the military needs moved from one location to another.
The term distinguishes such shipments from civilian freight, often implying special handling, security requirements, or priority transport: The aircraft was loaded with military cargo bound for the base.
