The anticipated award date for the IDIQ is 1st Quarter FY 2022.

The ADA-T program is established to produce the MQM-170, MQM-171, and MQM-186 aerial targets to meet the performance specifications. The ADA Targets program enables the TSMO to provide aerial target support to Army, Navy, USMC, and Foreign Military Sales training customers as well as the Defense, Army, Navy, and Air Force research, development and test communities with a consistent aerial target capability provided by proven systems to maintain their qualification training requirements and complete development and testing of new weapon systems. The ADA-T contract will provide for production of aerial targets and support equipment; aerial target services for customer research, development, test and training requirements; and a repository of target assets available for employment by U.S. Federal Agencies and approved Foreign Military Sales customers. The results of this market research will contribute to determining the method of procurement, if a requirement materializes.
