- Description
- This BAA is modified to reflect the following changes and information. The "Dial-A-Reaction" paragraph (technology area 4) in the basic BAA announcement description is hereby replaced in its entirety by the following paragraph: "TASK 4. INSENSITIVE MUNITIONS (IM) TESTING- Testing will be performed using a JLONS-like laser system (provided by the Offerer) to determine the reaction of several types of IM to laser energy. The Government will be primarily planning and running the test and will provide instrumentation, with the Offeror providing the laser system, laser operation, and the support. A test range location and cost shall be proposed by the Offeror, but with the option to fund the test range separately if it is a government-owned facility. NAVEODTECHDIV representatives will meet with the JEOD end-user to determine appropriate ordnance for testing and the end-user will approve the final list of test items. The list may include (but not limited to) thick and thin shelled IM and insensitive and extremely insensitive high explosive (IHE). Data from previous IM testing will be used to plan the tests to determine which techniques will be used to achieve the desired reactions. The ability of th e system to provide consistent results will be characterized through a combination of measurements including blast characteristics, residual IHE, and laser parameters (including but not limited to flux density on target, beam power, time to disruption, etc.). If the results prove successful, the data will contribute to TTP generation and the refinement of the IHE requirement for the JLONS. The proposed effort shall not exceed 6 months from award of contract and the proposed cost shall not exceed $500.000. Testing is tentatively scheduled for two weeks in early FY09 with the possibility of an optional third week. Offeror should include the cost per week of testing as part of the cost estimate." All other tasks included in this BAA have been completed. Task 4 is the only requirement still outstanding. The deadline for submission of white papers for this effort shall be 30 April 2008. The technical point of contact is Ashley Archibald, 301-744-6858 x266, ashley.archibald@navy.mil.
