[61] The figures that appear in this table for the number of submunitions per munition, the number of munitions contained in the active inventory, and the number of munitions contained in the total inventory are drawn from “DoD Report to Congress,” pp. 2-6. 

[62] Active inventory denotes serviceable ammunition items that can be safely used in training or combat. Total inventory may include damaged, suspended, or unserviceable ammunition that is awaiting disposal or repair.
