STATEMENT OF WORK

MARSOC

Camp Pendleton, CA 92055

6-14 July 2017

1. Scope: MARSOC is conducting training to evaluate the Support Team in their ability to provide fused, multi-disciplinary intelligence, communications, and logistics support. This training will need ISR Support.

2. Purpose: The purpose of this Statement of Work (SOW) is to define the need for a reliable and flexible Intelligence, Surveillance, and Reconnaissance (ISR) platform for ISR Tactical Controller evaluation training and special collection during the exercise. ISR Tactical Controller training is critical to prepare the Marines to support full spectrum intelligence operations and special operations missions. ISR is also essential in supporting multi-disciplined intelligence training. ISR mission planning and coordination is a crucial part of the team’s ability to plan and direct intelligence operations.

3. Applicable Documents: Intelligence Chapter (draft), MARSOF Training and Readiness Manual, and NAVAIR Flight Clearance Instruction 13034.1D.

4. Requirements: This SOW establishes the requirements for ISR training and exercise support for MARSOC. It defines the material support, administrative, operational, and instructional tasks required under this SOW.

Capability:

• The contractor shall provide an ISR platform to simulate theater level aerial systems in order to replicate a realistic, live ISR collection management (requirements and operations) environment that is responsive to tasking. The platform will provide a near real time (NRT) full motion video (FMV) / data feed directly to a Multi-Discipline Intelligence Operator (MDIO) within the line of sight (LOS) defined by communications capabilities and receivable on KU digital, C digital/analog, S digital, and L analog communications bands. The feed must also be capable of being broadcast over either Internet Protocol (I.P.) or Secret Internet Protocol Router Network (SIPR) and should have a greater than line of site range chatroom or similar communications function to facilitate off site control of the feed. The data feed must support a moving map function for Geographic Information Systems (GIS) tracking of the platform for mission management. Recorded digital copies of all missions must be provided to the MDIO for post mission exploitation.

• The contractor shall provide 10 mission flight hours during the training flight days and associated fuel costs. The airborne platform must be configured with an Electro-Optical (EO) / Infrared (IR) payload sensors.

The heads up display (HUD) data must resemble metadata typical of theater level assets such as the MQ-1/9 platforms. It must also include information on the platforms location, altitude, sensor orientation, active sensor info (EO/IR). The contractor shall provide closed caption video via a Ground Control Station (GCS) and LOS remote viewing terminal (RVT). A minimum of 2 LOS RVT are required. A Global Broadcast System will be used to downlink the feed.

• The pilot and any crew personnel must possess a TS/SCI clearance.

• The contractor shall provide an aircraft that provides capacity to transport up to four individuals and up to 120 pounds worth of communications equipment. The primary mission will be special collection mission (SI Prime) for training with the ability to be dynamically tasked to support or switch to an ISR mission. This would be pre-coordinated prior to the execution of that day’s mission.

• The tactical communications capability must be able to support UHF, VHF, AM-FM, HF, SATCOM, and HPW. Preference is SATCOM single channel cypher text.
