A -- MISSILE/ROCKET LAUNCH RESPONSE STUDY DUE 052998 POC Deidra Barnes, Contract Specialist, AMSAM-AC-RD-BA, (205)876-3139, or Harold Smith, Contracting Officer, (205)876-0908 The contractor shall perform dynamic and fatigue analysis of missile/rocket systems and aviation systems. These analyses shall be of such fidelity that missile/rocket tip-off rates can be determined as measured in miliradians. Missile tip-off is one of the error sources used in missile and rocket simulations to determine performance. Tip-off is a function of the entire system, therefore, the typical analyses shall mandate that a model of the particular carrier platform also be modeled to account for any dynamics effects resulting from the carrier suspension or chassis flexibility. GOVERNMENT FURNISHED MATERIAL: The data required for these analysis will be provided to the contractor by personnel from the Missile Research, Development and Engineering Center upon award of contract. DELIVERABLES: The study shall be provided to the government in accordance with DI-MISC-80508. See Numbered Note(s): 22 (0135)
