An ammunition rack in a vehicle ammunition compartment helps protect the nds from injury due to road shocks and propagation of an explosion, i.e., fratricide. The rack comprises a warhead block-mount fixture and parallel thereto, and spaced therefrom, a base block-mount fixture; both fixtures being of a resilient and flexible polymeric material and both having a set of holes therethrough; the holes in the two fixtures being aligned. Metal tubular sleeves are held within each pair of aligned fixture holes, the sleeves spanning the space between the fixtures. The ammunition rounds are removably inserted in the sleeves and held therein preferably by latch mechanisms.
