1.0 INTRODUCTION
The overall objective of the Air National Guard (ANG) and Air Force Reserve Command (AFRC) F-16 Mission Tactics Trainer support contract is to provide a comprehensive operations, maintenance, and sustainment (OM&S) program to ensure F-16 MTT operators have fully functional, squadron-level, pilot training devices designed to support initial, qualification, and continuation training of full-time and part-time pilots, in both training and operational F-16 units.
The F-16 MTT Training System Support Center (TSSC) contract, through General Services Administration (GSA), consists of all actions and activities required for the OM&S of the ANG and AFRC F-16 MTT systems.
1.1 RELOCATABLE SIMULATION SHELTER (RSS)
A Relocatable Simulation Shelter (RSS) is a self-contained, purpose-built, weatherproof, electrically powered, climate-controlled, and protected environment for the human occupants and simulator training device(s). The RSS includes self-contained environmental control through integral air conditioning/heating units, humidity control, fire detection and suppression, and integral lighting. The RSS is transportable using conventional commercial vehicles, and meets the road size and weight restrictions.
The RSS is considered part of the F-16 MTT device equipment, and as such, the F-16 MTT TSSC shall be responsible for the OM&S of the RSS.
1.2 F-16 MTT LOCATIONS
Table 1 outlines the F-16 MTT locations requiring support, including a notation for those F-16 MTT devices which, as of the date of this PWS, we know will be housed in an RSS.

1.2.1 F-16 MTT Connectivity to Combat Air Forces (CAF) Distributed Mission Operation (DMO) Connectivity
The F-16 MTT CAF DMO connects via Air Reserve Component Network (ARCNet). The Distributed Training Operations Center (DTOC) at the 132 FW in Des Moines operates and maintains the ARCNet. The DTOC organizes DMO events for ANG and Air Force Reserve Combat pilots. The requirements to operate on the ARCNet is the same as CAF DMO.
However, connections to the CAF DMO will be made through the DTOC to the Combat Air Force (CAF) Distributed Training Center Network (DTCN).
