2.0 Scope

The Naval Air Systems Command (NAVAIRSYSCOM) Program Manager Air (PMA-226) Contracted Air Services (CAS) program provides COCO aircraft to the Department of the Navy (DoN) Fleet and Test customers. These aircraft are used to simulate a wide variety of airborne threats to train and test/evaluate shipboard and aircraft squadron weapon systems operators and aircrew on how to counter potential enemy Electronic Warfare (EW) and Electronic Attack (EA) operations in today’s Electronic Combat (EC) environment. This support is provided in a variety of venues, from basic “schoolhouse” Air Intercept Control (AIC) training to large multinational exercises or small, single unit training exercises, including target/banner tow missions. Locations include multiple Continental United States (CONUS) sites and foreign and remote operating bases Outside the Continental United States (OCONUS). For the purpose of this PBWS the terms "CONUS along with OCONUS" are used interchangeably with "worldwide", and potential operating locations are identified in Appendix C of this PBWS. Aircraft shall operate from bases on the East Coast, West Coast, or from any operating site worldwide during periods of authorized deployment. High Endurance Electronic Warfare Jet (HEEWJ) Capabilities may include customers from other Department of Defense (DoD) agencies and services, non-DoD Government agencies, and Foreign Military Sales (FMS) customers.
