Experimentation events within the United States (U.S.).

2.2. Execute preliminary U.S. Soldier characterization and safety assessment testing at the vendor facility and/or country of origin prior to the delivery of the MTC systems.

2.3. Assess the MTCs interoperability within the current and future U.S. fires network.

2.4. Conduct U.S. ammunition compatibility assessments.

2.5. Identify recommended modifications (hardware/software) in support of long-term U.S. Army operations.

2.6. Begin the transition of the MTC system’s supply chain, production and assembly to a facility located in the United States (“onshoring”).

3.0 Long-Term Objectives (24 months +)

3.1. If success criteria are achieved, award a long-term production contract. *Note: Decision is predicated on Army Senior Leader (ASL) decisions, available funding, and Army requirements.
