'''JP-5''' or '''JP5''' (for "Jet Propellant") is a yellow, kerosene-based ] developed in 1952 for use in aircraft stationed aboard ]s, where the risk from fire is particularly great. JP-5 is a complex mixture of ]s, containing ]s, ]s, and ]s that weighs {{convert|6.8|lb/U.S.gal|kg/L}} and has a high ] (min. {{convert|60|°C|°F|sigfig=2|disp=or}}).<ref> Marine Corps Schools Detachment - Ft. Leonard Wood</ref> It is the primary jet fuel for most navies.{{fact|date=October 2010}} |

The ] and JP-5 fuels, covered by the MIL-DTL-5624 U Specification, are intended for use in aircraft ]s. These fuels require military-unique additives that are necessary in military ]s, engines, and missions. |
|
|
|
|
|
JP-5's flash point is substantially higher than ] turbine fuels because it is stored in large quantities on aircraft carriers and support vessels. Its freezing point is {{convert|−46|°C|F}}. It does not contain ]s. |

Other names for JP-5 are: '''NCI-C54784''', '''Fuel oil no. 5''', '''Residual oil no. 5'''. |

JP-5's NATO code is '''F-44'''. It is also called '''AVCAT''' fuel for '''Av'''iation '''ca'''rrier '''t'''urbine fuel.<ref></ref> It is specified by MIL-DTL-5624 U (TURBINE FUEL, AVIATION, GRADES JP-4 AND JP-5), last issued on 2004, and meets the British Specification DEF STAN 91-86 AVCAT/] (formerly DERD 2452). |
