MTC-T DIRECTION 1/2

The Why:

1. Opportunity to modernize Division Artillery (DIVARTY) and Armored Brigade Combat Teams (ABCT)

2. Increase lethality and survivability deficits compared to current allied and adversarial fires capabilities.

The How:

1. Government is planning to request proposals to support modernization efforts for a vehicle set (consisting of a Tracked Howitzer and Tracked Resupply platform).

a. Pursuing a Call for Solutions / Commercial Solutions Offering approach

b. No draft RPP will be solicited.

c. Government will evaluate proposals that include Resupply platforms but will still consider proposals for the Tracked Howitzer if not included.

2. Government will evaluate mature and available solutions to rapidly close lethality gap.

3. Industry is encouraged to reference the Mobile Tactical Cannon-Wheeled (MTC-W) solicitation on sam.gov

First Prototype Delivered

FY29 Q1 Soldier Operational Test Demo

• Industry feedback is Essential.

• Rapidly delivering prototypes for characterization, experimentation, and Soldier feedback remains foundational for the program’s success. This Soldier-centric approach is non-negotiable and will drive our final fielding decisions.

• The U.S. Army strongly desires a U.S.-based, commercially available supply chain within 2 years of contract award and CONUS produced systems for FAR contract.

• Interoperability with existing and future Army networks, and compatibility with existing U.S. 155mm ammunition, remain a prio rity.

There will be NO Draft Solicitation released Industry is encouraged to review MTC-W solicitation to support understanding

SPECIAL CONSIDERATIONS 1/2

Resupply Vehicle

1. Government is interested in vendor resupply solutions.

2. Vendors with a Resupply Vehicle are encouraged to propose their solution but will not disqualify proposals if not included.

Prototype Delivery

1. Government desires a minimum of five (5) MTC-T prototypes to support operational testing as soon as possible with the first set available within 90 days post award.

2. All prototypes may be built using existing production lines in or out of the US.

3. The Government may request to procure additional prototypes as funding allows.

Onshoring to CONUS

1. Government intends to transition from the prototype Other Transaction Agreement (OTA) to a production contract to procure and onshore MTC-T.

2. The Government will not accept an extended break in production when transitioning to the production contract.
