QUESTIONS AND ANSWERS

Question

1. On page 6, the introduction to the SOW list the five different surrogates. On page 5 item 0005 is the same description as 0004. I believe 0005 should be the Scud.

Answer Yes, 0005 should be the SCUD.

Question

2. On page 8, can the (GVW) Gross vehicle weight of items 2, 3, 4 be given some leeway on the maximum weight? These models have been fabricated before and weight 24000 lbs.

Answer Yes, some leeway is acceptable however the GVW shall have a max of 28,000 (Section 3.2.16 of the SOW).

Question

3. On page 7, 3.2.3.5 the SCUD is to have a separate SCUD B missile surrogate. Is this missile an additional surrogate missile to the one that comes with a SCUD missile launcher?

Answer No, this requirement is for the missile surrogate to be included with the SCUD.

Question

4. On page 13, the delivery dates – if we propose a different delivery schedule, will this disqualify us as a bidder?

Answer No, an alternate delivery schedule will be considered if proposed.

STATEMENT OF WORK

STATEMENT OF WORK (SOW)

2019 THREAT SURROGATES

1.0 SCOPE

1.1 INTRODUCTION

The objective of this requirement is to procure five, full-size, three-dimensional, and rotatable visually representative physical threat surrogate shapes listed below, that shall be manually rotatable and capable of being locked in place at any relative angle and at multiples of 30° and 45°:

1) SA-11 FIRE DOME with a convertible turret section to allow it to represent a SA-17 GRIZZLY

2) HQ-9 Acquisition Type 305B Radar

3) HQ-9 HT-223 Engagement Radar

4) HQ-9 Transporter Erector Launcher (TEL)

5) SCUD

The Threat Surrogate Shapes will be utilized for testing and training purposes on U.S. Government test and training ranges within the U.S. These are necessary to provide training of live aircrews.

1.2 BACKGROUND

A variety of threat surrogates are utilized for testing and training. Advances in technology require these surrogates to be visually, signature accurate to accomplish the testing, and training mission.

Given the wide-ranging sensor characteristics of current and planned testing and training systems, there must be a compromise between signature fidelity, related costs, and testing and training effectiveness to develop a surrogate. Initial analysis of the testing and training environments suggests that a Surrogate with these approximate Infrared (IR) and Radar Cross Section (RCS) signatures will provide adequate training.

3.2.3.3 The SA-11 surrogate tracks and road wheels shall be able to support surrogate when setup for testing.

3.2.3.4 The conversion between configurations shall require no more than two people and heavy equipment beyond a forklift, and utilize bolt-together construction using commonly available hardware sizes.

3.2.3.5 The SCUD surrogate shall include a separate SCUD B missile surrogate that is a full-size reproduction and fabricated in a similar fashion as the SCUD surrogate.

3.2.3.6 The SCUD B missile surrogate shall include two hoist points along the body to allow it to be removed or loaded using a customer provided crane.
