Ammunition dispatch is an important part of ammunition support work in wartime, its rationality directly affects whether ammunition supply goes on well. This paper analyzes the ammunition dispatch problems from the perspective of technical implementation and application in wartime, and builds a multi-object optimization model to optimize the transportation time and the number of probability ammunition arrived safely. By comparison with conventional dispatch model, we find that the proposed model has many advantages for ammunition dispatch, and it can provide a practical method for ammunition support commanders to shorten the transportation time and increase the number of probability ammunition arrived safely
