- Navair Orlando Training Systems Division has a requirement for the development of a Remote Mine-Hunting Vehicle Operator Trainer (RMV-OT). The Remote Mine-hunting System (RMS) provides organic mine detection capabilities within a Battle Group. As part of the system, the Remote Mine-hunting Vehicle (RMV) is a semi-autonomous, semi-submersible vehicle that is deployed from the LCS class of ships. The RMV is operated in both a semi-autonomous mode from the combat information center (CIC) and from direct remote control by an operator on deck during deployment and recovery. The RMV operator has to develop the psychomotor skills required for the direct control input to the RMV for safe deployment and recovery. RMV-OT systems will be based on the commercially available Conning Officer Virtual Environment (COVE) product and are proposed for use at Fleet Training Center, San Diego and shipboard to support the training of the RVDOs during the development of the required psychomotor skills.The RMV-OT shall consist of the following commercial items: One Version 1 COVE Simulator System to include the following commercially available features: (1) RMV and LCS visual and hydrodynamic models with ownship interaction. (2) A davit crane model for RMV launch and recovery, including tag and towline forces. The RMV is stern launched from the LCS. (3) Simulated Remote Operator Pack (ROP) interface. (4) A visual image display system. (5) Instructor station scenario monitoring system. (6) Communication System. (7) One spare hard drive for each system computer. (8) One 300 gigabyte external USB hard drive to be used for ghosting system hard drives. The ultimate goal of the this program is to interface the RMV-OT with the LCS trainer to facilitate total team training. A Firm-Fixed Price (FFP) contract is contemplated with an required 3 Month period of performance. North American Industry Classification Systems (NAICS) code is to be determined. All interested parties should submit at least a brief capabilities statement, BUSINESS SIZE, and past and/or current on performance (limit to within 3 years) on similar contracts (include dollar value, complexity and Point of contact).
