*** End of Narrative A0000 ***

The purpose of Amendment 0006 to Solicitation W52P1J-17-R-0173 is as follows:

1. To answer the following industry questions for Request for Proposal:

Question a): Reference Solicitation W52P1J-17-R-0173, Modification 3, & Modification 4.____________

Is the maximum limit of pages 115 pages or 100 pages? In Modification 3, Answer #5 states that the maximum limit is 115 pages.

However, in Modification 4, Para. L.3.1.a & L.5 Volume 1, it is listed that the maximum number of pages is 100.

Would the Government be able to clarify this information?

Answer a): Refer to Amendment 0005 for answer.__________

Question b): Will the U.S. Government please provide a conformed copy of the entire solicitation (with amendments)?_____________

Answer b): For the convenience of having the solicitation and amendments 0001 to 0005 in one document, the U.S. Government will__________ provide this as supporting documentation within Federal Business Opportunities (FEDBIZOPPS).

2. To Answer the following industry questions for Solicitation W52P1J-17-R-0173 M116A1 155mm Artillery Smoke Projectile Metal Parts:

Question a): Paragraph 4.3.1.1 Heat treatment inspection lot____________

"For continuous heat treat process a heat treat lot shall consist of eight (8) hours of continuous production".

This will result in an excessive amount of mechanical properties testing which will increase the unit cost while adding no value.

Will the USG consider revising this to state the furnace can be run continuously until the entire mill heat of steel has be processed or there is a break in the furnace operation?

Answer a): The following sentence is deleted in its entirety: "For continuous heat treat process a heat treat lot shall consist of__________ eight (8) hours of continuous production".

Question b): Reference Dwg No. 10534906 Rev. C (Body) & MIL-DTL-32595(AR). What are the requirements for the Plane Strain Fracture____________

Toughness on the M116A1 Body (Dwg No. 10534906)? In MIL-DTL-32595(AR), Para. 3.3.2, it is stated The minimum fracture toughness

(Kic) in the body side wall shall be determined by government technical agency.

Would the Government be able to provide this information?

Answer b): The minimum requirement for the body plane-strain fracture toughness shall be 100 KSI-in^.5__________

Question c): Reference Dwg No. 10534906 Rev. C (Body). Geometry on Dwg No. 10534906 Rev. C (Body) in ID nose area is not defined at____________ all. Also, behind the step in the ID of the ogive the geometry shows two tapers, but only two datums (one on each taper) and one taper (basic).

Would the Government be able to clarify this information?

Answer c): The Geometry in regards to the ID of the nose area can be seen in Detail C of sheet 2. A second taper dimension was__________ removed from the previous revision of the drawing because it was only a reference dimension. That area is defined by the other

remaining dimensions.

Question d): Reference Dwg No. 7548993 Rev. T (Blank, Rotating Band) & MIL-DTL-32595(AR). Dwg No. 7548993 Rev. T (Blank, Rotating____________

Band) calls out Tensile Strength of 40,000 psi Max., whereas MIL-DTL-32595(AR) Para. 4.3.2.1 calls out 40,000 PSI min Yield @ 12% elongation.

Can it be assumed tensile strength typically refers to ultimate tensile strength?

Would the Government be able to clarify this information?

Answer d): The information in Para. 4.3.2.1 is changed FROM: 40,000 PSI min, TO: 40,000 PSI max in order to reflect the drawing__________ requirements. The min for this item is 30,000 PSI as seen in Para 3.3.1.

Question e): Reference Dwg. No. 10534907 Rev. C (Plug, Base). Dwg. No. 10534907 Rev. C (Plug, Base) Spanner holes are listed as____________

03/18 x 5/16 Deep.

Is there a typographical error for the diameter of these holes?

Answer e): The diameter of the holes are changed to 3/8 x 5/16 Deep.__________

Question f): Would the Government review its below Answer to the below Question e on page 7 of Amendment 0005?____________

Question e): Paragraph 3.3.2 Plane strain fracture toughness test. The minimum fracture toughness (K1c) in the body side wall shall be determined by government technical agency.

Will the USG please provide this information? The selection of a steel alloy to meet this requirement will be based on this and will affect the unit price.

Answer e): For this procurement the Flexible Rotating Band is required.

Answer f): Answer e in Amenmdment 0005 was in error. The correct answer is:__________

"The minimum requirement for the body plane-strain fracture toughness shall be 100 KSI-in^.5"

3. To Answer the following industry questions for Solicitation W52P1J-17-R-0173 M825A1 155mm Artillery Smoke Projectile Metal Parts:

Question a): Reference Dwg No. 9352632 Rev. G (Body), Dwg No. 13075008 (Ultrasonic Inspection Standard, Longitudinal Defects,____________

Body, 155MM, M825A1), Dwg No.13075009 (Ultrasonic Inspection Standard, Circumferential Defects, Body, 155MM, M825A1), & MIL-DTL-

64008A.

Is the Ultrasonic Test to be performed on Dwg No. 9352632 Rev. G (Body) before or after the rotating band is welded? The Ultrasonic

Test Standards, Dwg No. 13075008 & Dwg No.13075009, do not show the band on the body. Would the Government be able to clarify this information?

Answer a): The Ultrasonic Test is required to be performed after the Rotating Band is welded.__________

Question b): Reference Dwg No. 10542916 Rev. W (Ogive) & MIL-DTL-64008A. After Hydrostatic Pressure Testing is performed on Dwg____________

No. 10542916 Rev. W (Ogive), should the part be stamped with an "H" to signify completion of the Hydrostatic Pressure Test?

Answer b): After passing Hydrostatic Testing the ogive shall be stamped with an "H".__________
