1 Scope

This Statement of Work (SOW) defines the contractor’s effort required to support the design, development, integration, ruggedized prototype, testing and effectiveness evaluation of up to seven (7) Squad Immersive Training Environment (SITE) specific capability enhancements to the Instrumented - Tactical Engagement Simulation System, Increment II, (I-TESS II) training system. These enhancements were identified as part of the SITE Analysis of Alternatives (AoA) exploratory analysis. These enhancements address current training proficiency and readiness gaps at the squad-level and will be used to support both direct Force-on-Force (FoF) and Force-on-Target (FoT) tactical engagement training.

The seven SITE-specific capabilities enhancements are as follows:

1. Mortars – Integrate mortar firing capability, paring sensors, ballistic computer, and forward observer device (M224, 60mm and M252, 81mm) into baseline system.

2. Assault-Squads - Integrated MK153 shoulder launched multipurpose assault weapon (SMAW) simulator capability, paring sensors, day/night sighting, and back blast mechanism (non-pyrotechnic).

3. Anti-Armor – Integrated M220 TOW and M98A1 Javelin simulator capabilities and paring sensors.

4. Machine Guns - Integrated MK 19 Instrumented Weapon System (IWS) simulator, Small Arms Transmitter (SAT) and paring sensors.

5. Close Air Support – Provide a Forward Observer capability to effectively simulate call for fire and provide visual cues to the effect of the munitions. The effect will illustrate persistent CAS weapons impacts. The capability will include audio recordings at the tactical radio for use in the AAR.

6. Sniper Marksmanship – Evaluation of the effectiveness of an Integrated M107 long range sniper rifle (LRSR) paring sensors and the FoF use of existing Fire Control Devices while minimizing laser safety issues.

7. Employ Munitions – Integrated M18A1 Claymore mine with integrated battlefield effects capabilities.

1.1 Background

CTIA is the foundational architecture for the Live Training Transformation Family of Training Systems (LT2-FTS) strategy. CTIA consists of standard architecture services, components and protocols, and it facilitates commonality across the various training instrumentation systems and interoperability across Live, Virtual and Constructive (LVC) and joint training environments.

22 Oct 2012

I-TESS II man-worn detection system (MDS) and range equipment is used to instrument the individual Marines during direct force-on-force and force on target engagements.

The I-TESS II system will be used in military operations on urban terrain (MOUT) facilities and Non-Live Fire Maneuver Ranges located at various Marine Corp bases and installations. These facilities and ranges provide the setting for the USMC Pre-deployment Training Program (PTP) and other individual and unit-level training support. The Marine Corps has expressed a need to acquire and deliver training systems that provide real-time situation awareness, exercise control capabilities, and adjudicate indirect fire engagements so as to help facilitate the training exercise objectives. There is a need to collect the training actions/interactions of the Marines during the training exercise with the ability to provide immediate access of collected data for after action report (AAR) purposes.
