What Is NGCV?

The Robotic Combat Vehicle will mature on a longer timeline than the OMFV. Secretary Esper has directed the acceleration of OMFV while continuing investment in maturation of the Robotic Combat Vehicle.

NGCV Optionally Manned Fighting Vehicle (OMFV):

Combat platform that can maneuver Soldiers to a point of positional advantage and engage in close combat.

Engage in close combat and deliver decisive lethality during the execution of combined arms maneuver.

NGCV Robotic Combat Vehicle:

An unmanned close combat platform (tele-operated, semi-autonomous and autonomous).

Delivers decisive lethality and overmatch in a future operational environment executing combined arms maneuver.

6 AUG 2018

Why Army Needs NGCV?

Problem Statement:

How does the Army maintain overmatch in close combat against threats in the future operational environment?

• The changing character of warfare drives changes in how the Army delivers, operates, and sustains future combat capabilities.

• The first priority is replacing the Bradley with the Optionally Manned Fighting Vehicle (OMFV)

• OMFV will be joined later by a purpose built Robotic Combat Vehicle (RCV) and future capability upgrades for the OMFV.

Contract

- Strategy may require industry investment to build a bid sample for competition

- Select up to 2 vendors for a funded development period, approximately 3 years (EMD)

- Focus on mature systems that can be upgraded in the future (Growth/SWAP-C)

Key Capabilities:

• >= 25% growth margins for future capabilities

• Protection\Lethality\Dash Speed > Bradley

• Integrated Active Protection System

• Optionally-Manned (Drive-by-wire; Remote weapon operation)

• 2 on a C-17

• 2 crew + 5 dismounts (6 vehicles per platoon with 3x 9-soldier squads)

• Optimized for Dense Urban Terrain

• Reduced Logistical Burden

6 AUG 2018

Through an Incremental Acquisition Approach and early engagement with industry and Army Senior Leaders, the Army plans to field a fundamentally improved multi-role fighting vehicle for fielding in 2026, with built in growth margins for rapid improvements and insertion of key enabling technologies.

NGCV OMFV Bid Sample Test Overview

6 AUG 2018

• OMFV Bid Sample Test may occur over approx. 90 days, and may assess submissions in the following areas:

- Automotive Performance

- Main Gun and Secondary Weapon performance

- Optics (Day and Night Performance)

- Ability of the platform to apply Active Protection Systems

- SWAP-C Margins for growth (particularly weight, power, lethality upgrades (50mm); Optics Upgrade (3rd Gen

FLIR); Optionally Manned Performance)

- Potential Evaluation of Armor Coupons for select areas

Project Manager Next Generation Combat Vehicle

This competitive acquisition approach awards:

- Up to two (2) contracts from an Engineering and Manufacturing Development (EMD) competitive solicitation, with a future competitive acquisition at Milestone C resulting in only one (1) contract LRIP/production contract.

- The EMD phase is very short, with little to no design time built in (prototype delivery for test would begin ~15 months from contract award). As a result, a Design Maturity Assessment and a bid sample (complete vehicle system) may be utilized to reduce risk.

- The Government may also consider alternative acquisition approaches to include Other Transactions Authority (OTA).

OMFV Acquisition Concept

Project Manager Next Generation Combat Vehicle

OMFV Acquisition Concept

• OMFV BFV Replacement Effort (cont’d):

- Parallel to industry efforts, the Government is developing prototypes for the XM-913, 3rd Generation FLIR, and Integrated Active Protection Systems.

These three subsystem may be a requirement of EMD, and may be provided as Government Furnished Information/Material. Or the Government may set performance requirements at that level and expect industry to meet it with Contractor Furnished Equipment.

- Completion of EMD will be followed by a competitive LRIP/production solicitation in 3Q FY23, and delivers a new platform with First Unit Equipped in 1Q FY26.

Industry Role in NGCV

• As with any ground vehicle development, industry members, both those in the traditional defense sector, and those from outside traditional defense, bring the Army’s vehicle concepts to reality rapidly, responsibly, efficiently, AND contribute:

– Expertise

– Technology development

– Integration capability

– Engineering capacity

• Technology Maturation will continue to progress in parallel with the OMFV Acquisition Concept, and will insert into OMFV future increments, when mature.

• An active approach is encouraged for industry to be a part of the NGCV development, especially vis-à-vis Other Transaction Agreements (OTA).

Industry Role in NGCV

6 AUG 2018

The United States government needs Industry feedback:

• Which requirements can you meet on the stated timeline?

• On the present timeline, which requirements do you need relief from, and if so, how much?

• For those requirements you cannot presently meet (to include integrated APS, 50mm cannon, and 3rd GEN FLIR even if they are objective requirements in addition to any thresholds you need relief from), how would you propose to meet them through incremental upgrades? What is the approximate timeline and associated cost delta to meet the given requirements (separate from the projected schedule)?

Questions & Answers from Sources Sought Announcement

Q&A Review

• Question #1: Can the EMD Prototype vehicle contain different components than the bid sample?

Answer #1: Yes, Any requirement for a bid sample would be utilized to assess risk of performance after contract, not to direct material solutions.

• Question #2: Are there US localized content requirements associated with current Buy America regulations?

Answer #2: All required Trade Agreements, Buy-America Act, etc., regulations would be included in any solicitation.

• Question #3: Would the U.S. Army consider publishing an advance copy of the proposed NGCV funding lines and their on-going status in negotiating the OSD and OMB budgeting process including any “pass back” or bill payer impacts that would change the U.S. Army’s proposed budget?

Answer #3: The Army has planned to fully fund NGCV to the proposed amounts in the POM.

However, OSD and OBM have not validated funding and therefore funding information will not be released at this time.

Q&A Review

• Question #4: When will the OMFV requirements be released? When will the OMFV requirements be baselined?

Answer #4: Draft Requirements iterations began in June of 2018. Any resulting solicitation will be based on firm requirements. Please reference Sources Sought document for additional authorized requests. The Army is still working the requirements with the goal of having firm requirements by September 2018.

• Question #5: Will you please characterize the US Army’s appetite/tolerance for risk on this program in terms of cost, schedule, and performance?

Answer #5: Market Research will inform program risk. Solicitation evaluation parameters will inform industry.

• Question #6: Is the objective of this Program to rapidly field a Bradley Replacement capability that is designed to evolve to meet OMFV objectives? Or to deliver an OMFV to Replace Bradley?

Answer #6: The objective of this program is to rapidly field a replacement for Bradley designed to evolve to meet the OMFV objectives.

Q&A Review

• Question #7: Page 3 of the Sources Sought contains 3 bullets that depict the program “requirements”. The first two bullets (objective OFMV and Bradley Replacement) are consistent with our understanding of top level intent. The third bullet seems more specific. Does this suggest a special emphasis? If so, please explain.

Answer #7: Please see paragraph 5 of the Sources Sought.

• Question #8: The release of the RFP for the OMFV in OCT 2018 allows for very little opportunity to include lessons learned from the Phase 1 and Phase 2 of the NGCV program.

Can we expect that the requirements related to MUM-T lessons learned in Phase 1 and Phase 2 to be included in OMFV specification will be updated after the RFP responses are turned in?

Answer #8: The immediate focus of the OMFV is a replacement for Bradley with optionally-manned capability. Designing in the ability to upgrade vehicle systems over time will allow the OMFV to evolve into the MUM-T mission as it becomes more defined. Any requirements needed to meet MUM-T mission will be on future OMFV block-type updates.

• Question #9: Is there any additional detail available on the Bid Sample test plan?

Answer #9: See slide 10 (potential bid sample assessment).

Q&A Review

• Question #10: Does the government have a proposed delivery schedule for the EMD prototypes since it appears to overlap with developmental testing?

Answer #10: Planned by month EMD prototype delivery schedule per vendor is FEB21- 2, MAR21 – 1, APR21 – 1, MAY21 – 2, JUN21 – 2. JUL – 2, AUG – 2. These monthly quantities are based off of planned MPF deliveries.

• Question #11: Is the government considering a budget allocation for down-selected suppliers between Milestone B and Milestone C and is it prepared to provide guidance at this stage?

Answer #11: Assuming that a "budget allocation" refers to multiple awards at MS B, the Government has not ruled out this strategy.

• Question #12: Does the Government anticipate the ability to offer long lead funding for the prototypes?

Answer #12: The Government does not intend to obligate funding prior to competitive award.

• Question #13: What are the Government’s vehicle performance/operational testing plans between the 14‐month and 22‐month delivery schedule?

Answer #13: The USG will conduct Developmental Test of the EMD prototypes. Plans are pending.

Q&A Review

• Question #14: Release of the DRAFT or FINAL classified annex to certified vendors as soon as is reasonable will result in a more relevant NDI vehicle solutions to be provided by prospective teams. When will the classified annex be released to industry?

Answer #14: The classified annex is still in early draft stages, but will be available shortly before RFP release.

• Question #15: Will considerations be given to opening up the aperture of the requirements to allow for more creative solutions to the mission be proposed?

Answer #15: The Government welcomes any feedback on requirements.

• Question #16: The Sources Sought states “Up to two contracts from an EMD competitive solicitation”. How confident are you that the Army will provide the needed funding in the POM to allow for two contract awards?

Answer #16: The Government will not pursue an unaffordable program, but has used the POM in anticipation of a multiple award.

• Question #17: Is the Army open to a wheeled or mixed fleet?

SUBJECT: Updated Letter to Industry on Desired Capabilities for Next Generation Combat Vehicle - Optionally Manned Fighting Vehicle (NGCV-OMFV)

This document is a follow-up to our 9 July 2018 NGCV-OMFV industry engagement. This is not a solicitation for proposals and a contract will not arise as a result of responding to this letter.

Problem Statement. The Army must maintain combat vehicle overmatch in close combat against threats in the current and future operational environment through 2050 and beyond. The changing character of warfare drives changes in how the Army delivers, operates, and sustains future combat capabilities. The Army will initially focus efforts on a replacement for the Bradley Fighting Vehicle, then later the Abrams Main Battle Tank, with Next Generation Combat Vehicles that overmatch pacing threats with decisive lethality, survivabliity, tactical mobility, and reduced logistical burdens. These vehicles, when combined with trained and technology enabled crews are essential to our battlefield success, now and in the future.

The nine capabilities from the original letter are provided below with initial threshold (T) and objective (0) performance measures. We are asking industry to assess their ability to provide the capabilities described below so that we can further refine adjustments to performance measures in future requirements documents in advance of a request for proposal release. Industry feedback can take any form desired but should be provided to the POCs on this letter no later than 6 August 2018.

a. Optionally Manned: Defined as a manned vehicle that primarily operates with a crew but has the ability to conduct remotely controlled operations while the crew is off platform. Control may be executed from a dismounted position or from another vehicle. The NGCV-OMFV must possess the capability to be remotely operated using non-physical tethers with off platform control of relevant sensors and driver controls (T) and off platform control of turret operations, imagery, and data information as respective capabilities are fielded (0). The communications link should be secure within 1500m (T), 3000m (0). The optionally manned capability is tele-operated (T), semi-autonomous (O).

b. Capacity. NGCV-OMFV should operate with no more than three (3) crewmen (T), two (2) crewman (0 ), while possessing sufficient volume under armor to carry at least five (5) Soldiers and their Personal Protective Equipment (PPE), associated work stations, and individual mission equipment (to include individual ammunition, rations and water) as dictated by mission roles (Infantry, Scout, Sapper, Fire Support) (T), RCV Controller (0 ), for a minimum of 72 hours (T), 96 hours (0).

c. Transportabtyil.i Two NGCV-OMFV's will be simultaneouslytransportable by one C-17 and should be ready for short duration combat (12 hours) within fifteen minutes of disembarking the aircraft (install radio antennas, loading ammunition handling systems, mounting the commander's independent weapon, stowing individual Soldier's gear, etc.). This does not include application of kits. Vehicles, when configured for air transport, (for example, fuel limited to 75% capacity to allow for fuel cell expansion) should not require major assembly or disassembly of vehicle components upon disembarking. NGCV-OMFV platform weight, when configured for air transport, should not exceed41.5 U.S. tons. NGCV-OMFVs will also meet all NATO transport requirements for rail and road movement (T), worldwide rail and road movement (0).
