The Redstone Technical Test Center (RTTC) is seeking information from industry regarding capabilities available for construction of a 5-Axis Flight Motion Simulator (FMS). The FMS will be used for closed-loop hardware in the loop testing of high resolution gimbaled seekers and guidance sections. The FMS shall have an approximate bandwidth of 60 Hz in the roll axis, 30 Hz in the pitch and yaw axes, and 10 Hz for the outer two target axes. The FMS must have minimum gimbal travel limits of +/-120 degrees in roll and +/-45 degrees in pitch and yaw. The FMS must perform with a primary load of approximately 20 pounds, 5 inch diameter, and 24 inches in length. The FMS must also accept secondary loads of gimbaled seekers and guidance sections up to 14 inches in diameter, 40 pounds, and 30 inches in length with a degraded bandwidth (TBD) performance relative to the primary load. Potential sources should also provide the following information: 1) Size of company (large or small business) 2) Experience in producing flight motion simulators. 3) ROM for budgeting and planning purposes. The information requested is for planning purposes only and does not constitute a requirement.
