- Description
- The U.S. Army TACOM-ARDEC intends to award a sole source contract to Western Design, Irvine, California, under the authority of FAR 6.302-1, avoidance of duplication of cost and unacceptable delays in fulfilling the agency?s requirements, for a 120mm mortar automated ammunition magazine and projectile loader system to include engineering support. The system will be capable of accommodating all existing fielded and current developmental 120mm cartridges. The system will be used on the Responsive Accurate Mission Module (RAMM) turret, which is a lightweight, automated, unmanned, indirect fire mortar module suitable for insertion into a generic FCS platform. The system will consist of the hardware and software necessary to store required mortar cartridges, allow for vehicle resupply, establish, maintain, and update an on- board inventory database and index to the proper location upon a call to fire from RAMM. The system will primarily be comprised of a magazine drive subsystem, magazine controller subsystem and user interface and magazine sensors and diagnostics. The system shall be configured to operate in the initialization, projectile resupply, projectile unloading, operational and diagnostic modes. The magazine full cycle rate will not exceed 4 seconds. The system shall carry a minimum of 46 mortar cartridges. The system shall remain fully operational during vehicle start-up. See Numbered Notes 22 and 26.
