SOW & PWS

MULTI-MISSION DATA LINK SYSTEMS SUPPORT (MMDLS)

1.0 Introduction

The purpose of this contract is to provide engineering, development and technical support services necessary to fulfill Naval Air Warfare Center, Aircraft Division (NAWCAD) Rapid Capability Engineering & Integration Department (AIR 4.11) Combat Integration and Identification Systems (IDS) Division’s (AD-4.11.2) mission needs as dictated by the Navy, DoD and other Federal agency requirements.

1.1 Mission

AD-4.11.2’s mission involves the design, development, integration, testing, evaluation, certification, maintenance, and logistics support of Naval electronic and communications equipment, subsystems and systems.

1.2 Background

AD-4.11.2 provides system engineering, design, development, integration, training, test and evaluation, installation, fielding, certification, maintenance, life cycle, software development, and logistics support of command & control (C2) and communications systems for numerous Department of Defense (DoD) and other Federal agencies. AD-4.11-2’s technical expertise is essential to the development, engineering and procurement of shipboard, airborne, and ground-based & surface platform mission systems.

1.3 Scope

AD-4.11.2 is responsible for systems engineering; verification testing of the shipboard installations; and performing Board of Inspection and Survey (INSURV), Integrated Logistics Support (ILS) audits, and all other life cycle support actions to implement and maintain the Light Airborne Multipurpose System (LAMPS) MK III Weapon System in the fleet. The Program Executive Office Integrated Warfare Systems (PEO IWS) has tasked AD-4.11.2 to be the Acquisition Engineering Agent (AEA), Design Agent (DA), and the In-Service Engineering Agent (ISEA) to support the introduction and life cycle management of the AN/SRQ-4 Radio Terminal Set (RTS) and associated equipment as well as other components of the LAMPS MK III Weapon System. AD-4.11.2 has also been tasked by the Multi-Mission Helicopter Program Office (PMA 299) to provide Systems Engineering and Logistics Support services for the Ku-Band upgrade to the Radio Terminal Set (AN/SRQ-4(Ku)) and its airborne counterpart AN/ARQ-59 that is designed for use on the MH-60R platform. LAMPS MK III is currently migrating from a unique C band frequency waveform to Ku Band frequencies using a Common Data Link (CDL) compatible waveform. Thus, AD-4.11.2 is currently supporting two significantly diverse data link variations (C and Ku bands) that are in two different life cycle support stages for LAMPS MK III. The data link support services required include both Navy and foreign military sales (FMS) efforts.

AD-4.11.2 has also been tasked to be the ISEA to support the life cycle management of the Ship’s Data Recorder System and the United States Coast Guard (USCG) RD-681B Recorders-Reproducers Service Life Extension Program (SLEP). Due to increasing cost to maintain the systems the USCG has authorized AD-4.11.2 to execute the SLEP for all deployed RD-681B Recorders - Reproducers. Additionally, AD-4.11.2 has been tasked with replacing the RD-674B/UNH Recorder-Reproducer with the Digital Voice Logging Recorder System (DVLRS) on United States Navy (USN) ships.

AD-4.11.2 also provides engineering and technical support services for designated fleet combat system elements, which interface with the LAMPS MK III; this includes, but is not limited to, training and test systems, sensors (radar and sonar), imagery, Forward-Looking Infrared (FLIR), C2, weapons, platform displays and voice communications between the various platforms including ship and air platforms, manned and unmanned aircraft, ground mobile, and fixed shore sites.
