About this file
This document is a Government Test Checklist for the Basic Army Target Lifter (BATL) and associated items. It outlines the testing requirements for the First Article Test (FAT) and Acceptance Testing (AT) of various target mechanisms, including Stationary Infantry Targets (SITs), Stationary Armor Targets (SATs), Moving Infantry Targets (MITs), and Moving Armor Targets (MATs). The checklist covers specific requirements such as mechanism adjustability, lifting arm specifications, track and stabilization, and general performance parameters. It also addresses requirements for portable mechanisms, muzzle flash simulators, and non-automated devices like lifter shields. The checklist specifies the verification methods, which include inspection, demonstration, and analysis. Additionally, it outlines general testing requirements related to range startup/shutdown, Battle Effects Simulators, technical manuals, and new equipment training.
This checklist is referenced in the pre-solicitation notice for the Live Training, Ranges, and Combat Training Centers (LTRaC) Multiple Award Contract (MAC) 1, which is a U.S. Army Contracting Command-Orlando (ACC-ORL) requirement to provide and install live-fire training systems using the BATL Technical Data Package (TDP). The LTRaC MAC 1 contract will support military ranges worldwide, with equipment used for both day and night training under all weather conditions.
