All Contractor actions in execution of the contract shall be compliant with DoD 5500.7R JER.

4.1 RS&C Services

4.1.1 RS&C

i. RS&C

The Contractor shall operate its aircraft under the direction of Range Control Officer (RCO) or pre-mission instructions. The Contractor will receive an in-depth briefing and schedule upon arrival at the range from the RCO.

The contractor shall provide two aircraft for simultaneous presentations for RS&C Flights. The Contractor’s aircraft and personnel shall be capable of providing RS&C as detailed in the PBWS. The Contractor shall provide aircraft for RS&C for DoD ranges identified in individual TO’s. This tasking is an extremely high priority as it involves the safety of military, commercial, and private surface ships/vessels. The Contractor shall provide aircraft, equipment, personnel, materials, travel, per diem, and other ground and flight costs except as provided herein.

ii. Range Certification

For certification flights, NAVAIR project test plan policy applies. The offeror shall prepare a project test plan to compare platform performance characteristics against PBWS requirements. The Navy’s project test plan policy is

NAVAIRINST 3960.4C. The offeror shall assist Government personnel throughout the test plan approval process.

The offeror shall provide a final test report (IAW NAVAIRINST 3905.1A) at the conclusion of testing. The Offeror shall provide a test plan and test report to validate platform performance with required equipment to meet PBWS requirements. This plan shall provide a high-level description of the test strategy for integration, qualification, FAA

Certification Test, and performance testing to be conducted during the entire RS&C program effort. The Offeror shall describe the integration of test planning and verifiability of requirements with the systems engineering process

(CDRL A008). The Range Support Aircraft (RSA) Lead Test Engineer (LTE) will review and approve the test plan and make required coordination with the Sea Range and Targets to support the certification flights. The objective of the certification flights is to evaluate the surveillance radar using a target boat that would represent a typical small boat transiting the sea range. The aircraft will be tasked to locate contacts within the hazard pattern within the Range using standard surveillance techniques of parallel (or creeping) lines (5, 10, 15, or 20 NM separations (radar dependent)) as well as race track profiles against a surface target at beam, bow, and stern positions, at various altitudes. Aircraft and surface target positional data will be collected. The evaluation will consist of a single flight conducted in PMRF. The flight will be conducted against the High Speed Maneuverable Seaborne Target/High

Speed Maneuverable Surface Target (HSMST) and Targets of Opportunity (TOO) real world surface targets to evaluate the performance under operational conditions.

Range Certification consists of two (2) four-hour (hr.) flights for each aircraft configuration. The first flight can be completed at any time of the year, and will result in a temporary certification, which will allow the aircraft to be scheduled for PMRF operations. The second flight will be scheduled during the time of the year when sea states (the degree of turbulence at sea, generally measured on a scale of 0 to 9 according to average wave height) are typically at 4. If the offeror has more than one aircraft that are the same model with the same model radar installed, then only the first flight is required as long as one of the other aircraft has completed the second flight. The contractor shall confirm the second aircraft model and radar configuration prior to range certification. Persistence is the duration to continuously surveil an area with one or more assets.

iii. RS&C Target Identification and Communication Systems

The Contractor shall ensure aircraft with Target identification and communication systems will be used to clear the over water range at PMRF of approximately 640,000 Nautical Miles squared (NM2), and other areas as tasked. The

Contractor shall make voice communication contact with surface vessels during missions. If voice communication is unsuccessful, the RS&C aircraft will descend to make a visual identification and transmit the identification information back to the RCO.

iv. RS&C Aircraft Specifications and Requirements

The Contractor shall base aircraft at the contractor’s facility. The Contractor shall ferry the aircraft to and from mission locations. The Government will reimburse per flight minute. The flight operations required by RS&C tasking are planned to be Civil Aircraft operations and should be conducted within the 14 CFR however; the
