NATO Supply Class 5420 is a classification within NATO Supply Group 54, which is dedicated to prefabricated structures and scaffolding. Specifically, Class 5420 focuses on bridges, both fixed and floating.

Bridges in this class are designed to provide a means of crossing obstacles such as rivers, canals, or other gaps in terrain. They can be either fixed, meaning they are permanently installed, or floating, meaning they are designed to be deployed and retrieved as needed.

These bridges are typically prefabricated, meaning they are manufactured in sections or modules off-site and then transported to the desired location for assembly. This allows for quicker installation and greater flexibility in terms of deployment.

The bridges in Class 5420 are designed to meet the specific requirements and standards set by NATO. They are intended to be used by military forces for various purposes, including tactical operations, humanitarian missions, and infrastructure development.

It's important to note that the specific details and specifications of bridges in this class may vary depending on the manufacturer and the intended use. Therefore, it is recommended to consult the relevant NATO documentation or reach out to the appropriate authorities for more detailed information on the specific bridges within Class 5420.
