Product Description Manufacturing of AR500 Ballistic Steel Target for Ranges

1. BACKGROUND

1.1 Steel targets are required to support of NSWC Ranges located throughout the United States.

2. OBJECTIVES

2.1 Naval Special Warfare Command intends to issue a firm-fixed price Indefinite Delivery

Indefinite Quantity (IDIQ) contract for acquisition of steel targets and associated support items for ranges at Little Creek/Fort Story, Camp Atterbury, Fort Pickett, Fort A.P. Hill, Fort Chaffee, Stennis, MS, Coronado, CA, Hunter Liggett, CA, Hawaii, and other locations as specified at the delivery order level.

3. SCOPE

3.1 The Contractor shall provide the personnel, management, and materials necessary to manufacture, develop and ship steel targets and associated support items. NSWC requires a minimum of 60 different types, styles, and thicknesses of targets made of ballistic steel to support Land Warfare, SNIPER Training, and Unit Level Training. These targets require various support items fabricated of mild steel to mount, hang, or to stand up in various types of terrain. The targets are also intended to be mobile enough to be relocated by ATV’s and handled by Range Technicians when they are transported, used, and stored.

4. REQUIREMENTS

4.1 The Contractor shall manufacture the following types of Abrasion Resistant 500 (AR500) Steel Targets (3/8” or ½” thick) as specified in the details below in the Attachment 1 Product Description and Attachment 2 Specifications:

4.1.1 Ballistic Steel Target (A001-A029)

4.1.1.1 All Silhouettes (A001-A009) shall have a welded mount on the back that mounts/fits to 2X4’s.

4.1.1.2 The top of the silhouettes shall, when mounted, be tilted 20 degrees towards the ground to dissipate most of the bullet frag towards the ground. Tilt shall not be more than 20 degrees. See Attachment 3, page 5.

4.1.1.3 All hanging circles shall have holes to accommodate 2-1/4” 3/8-16 carriage bolts.

4.1.1.4 Targets (A018, A020, A024, A025, A028, A029) will have the option for holes in the shoulders or corners 1” from the top and side to accommodate 2-1/4” 3/8-16 carriage bolts.

4.1.2 Steel Reactive and Knockdown Targets (A033-A044). The width of targets A033 and A034 shall be 18”.

4.1.2.1 Targets A038 through A041 (ballistic steel knockdown targets with assembly) are spring loaded target systems. After hit with a bullet, they shall fall with no spring tension, once they hit the base, they shall come back slowly and return back to firing position. The base shall be manufactured using mild steel, hinges, and springs.

4.1.2.2 Targets A036 and A037 shall have a base stand and a vertical upright. The vertical upright for A036 shall be made of mild steel and the upright for A037 shall be made of wood.

4.1.3 Ballistic Steel Replicated Shooting Vehicle Targets (A045-A054). Contractor pre-assembly is not required. The Government will assemble these targets on-site. Contractor shall provide assembly instructions that provide clear and simplistic guidance. Contractor shall make contact with Delivery POC identified on each individual Delivery Order prior to shipping to discuss shipping plan (e.g. number and size of parcels, any special equipment, tools, or instructions to assemble, or anything else beneficial for the Government Delivery POC to know).

4.1.4 Quick Setup Target Stands (A055-A062). The target stands will be made of mild steel.

4.1.5 AR500 Ballistic Steel Plates (A063-A064) Miscellaneous Parts: A065-A076.

Part A068 and front protection plate shall be made of Ar-500 ballistic steel.

Targets A069, A070, A071, A072, A073, A074, and A075 shall be made of AR-500 ballistic steel. The frames, chains, and swing arms on parts A065 through A076 shall be made of mild steel.

4.1.6 Portable bullet trap target (A077) The trap must be a 36" x 24" x 4" and made with ½”. AR 500 ballistic steel with a slide-out bullet catch tray in the bottom made from AR-500 3/8” steel. Trap face will use ½” self-sealing sheet rubber. Base will have (4) heavy duty 4” casters on each trap with two being lockable and two being stationary. Overall height will be 60”. The trap will have a data plate with manufacturers name, serial number, date of manufacture, and steel pedigree data attached to the back of the impact plate at the top. Trap will be modular in design where all trap parts are interchangeable for ease of transport and storage. Trap base and stand will be made of mild steel. See Attachment 2 for more detail.

4.1.7 Provide a ballistic steel pedigree certificate that shows the contractor can provide AR500 ballistic steel (or better) targets. All steel hardness certifications shall be Brinell Hardness Number (BHN) rating of 500 or greater.

4.1.8 Frames shall be painted matte/flat black, and targets shall be painted matte/flat white to prevent corrosion.

4.1.9 Other steel targets may be incorporated on a to be negotiated basis.

4.2 The contractor shall use plasma cutting or water jet system or laser cutting machine to cut the targets.

4.3 The contractor shall conduct ballistic steel testing to ensure the metal is AR500 ballistic steel (or better) prior to manufacturing the targets. Non-destructive (NDT), or chemical, or tensile, are acceptable testing criteria. Mill certification / Test Reports certifying AR-500 is also acceptable.

4.4 Contractor shall fulfill Delivery Orders no later than 90 calendar days after receipt of order.
