- Description
- The U.S. Army Program Manager for Close Combat Systems (PM-CCS) in conjunction with the U.S. Army Research, Developmental, and Engineering Command - Armament Research, Development and Engineering Center (RDECOM-ARDEC), Picatinny Arsenal, New Jersey, is seeking sources for the 84mm AT4 Confined Space Reduced Sensitivity (AT4-CS RS) weapon system. The AT4CS will provide the U.S. Army and Special Operation Forces (SOF) with the capability to defeat medium (e.g. BMP-3) armored targets encountered in urban combat environments. The capability of the AT4-CS to be safely fired from confined (or enclosed) spaces will provide field Commanders and Soldiers with an effective capability that will increase mobility, flexibility in the application of force and lethality by significantly increasing engagement locations while limiting exposure to gunners. The U.S. Army in cooperation with the U.S. Special Operations Command (USSOCOM), intends to procure the AT4-CS RS weapon system for use in urban warfare. All interested parties having a non-developmental item (NDI) AT4-CS RS weapon system capable of defeating BMP-3 armor will be considered. Please include the following information in your response: (a) Warhead description, including Fuzing; (b) Developmental/Operational Status of Warhead and Fuzing; (c) Relevant Test data, including performance against BMP-3 targets; (d) Production Status of Warhead and Fuzing, (e) Detailed System Description, (f) Current Unit Cost, and (g) Delivery Time. A base contract (FY07) plus 4 years of IDIQ ranges (estimated quantities between 500 and 8,000 per year) is envisioned. Selected source will also provide engineering services (such as: Product Improvement, Cost Reduction, Producibility and Testing), as well as spare parts, Sub caliber Training devices, inert Field Handling Trainers (FHT), and inert cutaway samples. Please limit your responses to no more than 20 pages to be received no later than August 17, 2006. Responses shall be submitted electronically to: Ms. Shannon Wagner, Contract Specialist, U.S. Army TACOM- Picatinny, Picatinny Center for Contracting And Commerce, Picatinny Arsenal, New Jersey, 07806-5000.
