SECTION A

DESCRIPTION OF SERVICES

1.0 SCOPE AND COMPLIANCE. The objective of the CAF ADAIR acquisition is to provide realistic advanced adversary air threats from commercial ADAIR sources to support pilot combat readiness training. For the purpose of this document and program, the terminology

“CAF” refers to both the Combat Air Forces and those Formal Training Units (FTU) supplying

Combat Air Forces. This overarching PWS establishes the core requirements for all Operating

Locations (OL). Task Order PWSs will further refine and specifically define the applicable

OL requirements and the integration of Contractor services into the local unit’s mission. The

Government will identify, within the Task Orders, the required threshold and objective aircraft performance attributes needed to progressively expand aircraft system capabilities to replicate peer combatant threats. CAF ADAIR contractors may support multiple customers/locations across the CAF.

1.1 Task Orders. Contractors awarded Task Orders shall provide complete ADAIR services including, aircraft, aircraft systems support, aircraft maintenance, logistics, pilots, contract, and program management to meet Task Order PWS requirements. OL Task Order locations may expand in the future to support CAF ADAIR requirements. Contractor operations may be located on or off-base as required to best support tasked OLs. Initial Task Order locations, projected sorties, and projected Contractor operating beddown location are as follows.

*Note: Still to be determined.

1.1.1 Due to the flying hour quantity, cyclical nature, exercise support, or increased required level of support, some ADAIR requirements are best suited to be met through a Contractor deployment capability versus a continual presence.

Academics will be focused on adversary threat updates and replications pertinent to the contract platforms and technologies flown.

3.2.6.2.1.2. This is roughly equivalent to 11-2MDS definitions for a Combat Mission Ready maintaining proficiency in all of the primary missions tasked.

3.2.6.2.1.3. This is the minimum baseline for permanently assigned pilots providing continued contractual support.

3.2.6.2.2. Low End Training.

3.2.6.2.2.1. Low end training supports any B-course syllabus sortie, any operational unit upgrade sortie (MQT, FLUG, IPUG but excluding any WIC Spin-Up sortie), any simple OT&E test sortie, and any non-exercise/LFE continued training sortie.

3.2.6.2.2.2. This is roughly equivalent to 11-2MDS definition for a Basic Mission Capable pilot maintaining a “familiar” level of proficiency in all of the primary missions tasked.

3.2.6.2.2.3. This is the minimum baseline for non-permanently assigned pilots providing intermittent contractual support around other primary employment. Low End designated pilots on the contract must be able to spin-up to High-End proficiency as needed to support these high-end events.

3.2.6.2.3. In both the High and Low end thresholds, minimum proficiency is defined as able to perform tasks at the minimum acceptable levels of speed, accuracy, and safety commensurate with threat replication in the prescribed environment. Minimum acceptable levels are defined as meeting 90% accuracy threat presentation and threat shot replication standards as defined in

AFTTP 3-1 and the ATRG.

3.2.6.2.4. The GFR is ultimately responsible for determining the proficiency level required based upon USAF training requirements and sortie environment. Since the USAF lacks sufficient guidance on what constitutes an LFE or “High End”, the following serves as a basic guideline on this contract: LFE or “High End” must include a designated Mission CC

(qualified or upgrading), a minimum of 4 blue fighters (Government operated), 4 adversaries

(combination of Government and Contractor operated) and 2 strikers (combination of

Government or Contractor provided) assets with a certified Command and Control Platform, in an integrated air-to-air/surface-to-air threat scenario. Examples which meet this intent are:

RED FLAG, Atlantic Trident, Razor Talon, or any commensurate wing exercise designed to provide a high-end or spin-up training opportunity. Examples which do not meet this intent are: Recurring F-22 FLUG sorties involving 4 blue, 4 red, and 2 strikers w/ Baron Control.

3.2.7. Stan/Eval. Provide a standardization/evaluation (stan/eval) program for ensuring contract pilots recurring evaluations are conducted IAW AFI 11-202 Vol 2 timelines.
