About this opportunity
The Department of the Navy Naval Sea Systems Command has awarded contract N6660426C0186 to Saab, Inc. on a sole-source basis for four MK66 Heavyweight Undersea Training Targets (HUTT) units, with a total contract cost of $23 million and an eighteen-month delivery schedule from award date of June 29, 2026.
The justification cites 10 U.S.C. 3204(a)(1), which permits procurement from a single responsible source when no other supplies or services will satisfy the agency's needs. Saab is established as the sole designer, developer, and manufacturer of the MK66 HUTT, an acoustic target system with specific capabilities in speed, endurance, and acoustic performance that are not available from other sources. The Naval Undersea Warfare Center Division Newport, Code 85 Undersea Weapons and Defensive Systems, determined that Saab was the only company capable of meeting the required Technology Readiness Level 7 or higher and Key Performance Parameters within the required timeline. This finding was validated by a competitive Prototype Project Request conducted in FY24, which followed an earlier Request for Information issued in August 2021. The contracting officer has determined the anticipated cost is fair and reasonable. The agency commits to monitoring the market for future competition opportunities and technological advancements in underwater training targets. Funding is FY26 Weapons Procurement, Navy.
