A -- MODIFICATION, DSWA CONTRACT DNA001-94-C-0186, RADAR NUCLEAR EFFECTS CORRUPTOR AND SIMULATOR (RNECS) POC David Staudt, Negotiator, (703) 325-9210, Edward L. Archer, Contracting Officer, (703) 325-5028. This effort is part of contract DSWA001-94-C-0186 with Mission Research Corporation (MRC). DSWA intends to modify the existing contract to add two (2) tasks. This modification will add jamming simulation and radar return injection from multiple targets. Under new task nine (9), MRC will be tasked to augment the simulated nuclear environment of the RNECS instrumentation with generic Electromagnetic Counter Measure (ECM) signal synthesis and injection capabilities. ECM signal synthesis and injection functions shall be capable of emulating a wide range of threat jamming, including: 1) broadband noise jamming, 2) narrowband noise jamming, and 3) deception jamming. These capabilities shall be fielded with the RF interfaces necessary for the Ballistic Missile Early Warning System (BMEWS) radar's. Capability to test the NMD Ground Based Radar and the Theater High Altitude Area Defense (THAAD) Radar shall be considered in the design of the software and signal processor, but RF components need not be included. Under task ten (10), MRC shall allow RNECS to have the capability to simulate many simultaneous targets flying through the radar's field of view. This shall include the capability to simulate the following three types of multiple targets: 1) targets never illuminated by the same radar beam; 2) closely spaced targets illuminated by the same radar beam; and 3) widely spaced targets illuminated by the same radar beam. DSWA believes that MRC is the only source that posses the existing expertise to adapt this specific requirement to meet this program requirement within the time required by DSWA and available funding. Any other firm desiring consideration must fully identify its capability to perform this requirement. See Note 22. POC is David J. Staudt at (703) 325-9210.
