French term or phrase: parc d'attente
Hello,

I am looking for help for the term "parc d'attente" in this context: "plan d'implantation des soutes, armureries, armoires et parc d'attente".
The document makes it clear that these are all places on the ship where ammunitions are stored/used.

I thought maybe it could be some kind of reserves store or holding area?
Can anyone confirm this and/or know of the usual term in English?

Thanks,
Hayley
