Description
Description — Test Equipment Modernization (TEMOD)
Parent G02510 Test Equipment Modernization (TEMOD) contains multiple Resourced SSNs that procures multiple types/variants of test equipment with varied unit costs. Given the mix of procured equipment changes year-to-year, the composite unit cost at the Parent will also be variable. TEMOD procurements directly supports the FY22 National Defense Authorization Act by maintaining missile, aviation, air-defense, and communication systems that preserves command, control and communication systems on the battlefield. The TEMOD family of test systems provides combatant commanders with lethality and the tactical overmatch necessary to win the nation's future conflicts. TEMOD fundings SSNs includes Calibration Sets Equipment (CALSETS), Communications Test Equipment (CTE) and General-Purpose Electronic Test Equipment (GPETE). The TEMOD family of products provide equipment and systems which are vital to maintaining readiness of Army combat and combat support systems and support Army Futures Command (AFC) Cross Functional Teams (CFT) (Future Vertical Lift; Long Range Precision Fires; Network Command, Control, Communications and Intelligence (C3I); Soldier Lethality; Air and Missile Defense and Next Generation Combat Vehicle) weapon systems. The Calibration Sets Equipment (CALSETS) program consists of calibration instrumentation housed in fixed facilities or contained within tactical shelters with accompanying power generation equipment. The CALSETS instrumentation provides support to maintenance units and area support organizations from brigade to multi-theater sustainment operations and ensures a cascading transfer of precision accuracy originating from the US National Institute of Standards and Technology (NIST). The calibration sets are designed to support 90 percent of the Army test, measurement and diagnostic equipment (TMDE) workload with an objective of 98 percent. The instruments and equipment procured through this program are assembled into several set configurations (AN/GSM-286, AN/GSM-287, AN/GSM-439, AN/GSM-440, AN/GSM-442, AN/GSM-26(V)1, AN/GSM-26(V)2 and Secondary Reference) and two tactical calibration shelters (AN/GSM-705 and AN/GSM-421A(V)2). These calibration standards sets are integral to verifying the accuracy of all TMDE with mandated traceability to accuracy standards. State-of-the-art calibration equipment is required to ensure that advanced technology weapons and systems are maintained at the required state of operational readiness. Systems supported by the Calibration Sets include, but are not limited to, unmanned aerial vehicles (Shadow/Gray Eagle); military signal and electronic intelligence operations; tactical and strategic communications (Single Channel Ground and Airborne Radio System (SINCGARS)); ground, missile and aviation platforms such as the Army Family of Medium Tactical Vehicles (FMTV), Abrams, Multiple Launch Rocket System, Patriot, Apache, Blackhawk and Chinook; and the CFT weapon systems. The Communications Test Equipment (CTE) SSN provides for acquisition of the TS-4549 Radio Test Set (RTS). The RTS will be used to test, troubleshoot and repair Army radios down to the circuit card level. It supports both ground and air communications systems including legacy SINCGARS radios and today's Software Defined radios. The RTS will also be expandable and upgradeable to support future radio systems including the Army's investment in the Combat Net Radio (CNR) program and Handheld, Man-pack, and Small Form Fit Radios (HMS) program. The RTS will replace an obsolete bench-level radio test set that is unable to support the Army's emerging radio platforms. The General Purpose Test Equipment (GPETE) improves the materiel readiness of Army weapon systems; minimizes general-purpose TMDE proliferation and obsolescence; and also reduces the Army's operations and support costs. These objectives are accomplished through cost-effective acquisition of state-of-the-art test equipment employed for verifying accuracy, mission readiness, and safety of Army weapon systems and for supporting those systems at all maintenance levels. GPETE supports all Army commodities and is essential to the continued support of weapon system platforms such as the Abrams Tank, Bradley Fighting Vehicle, Apache Helicopter, Patriot, and SINCGARS, as well as other weapon systems scheduled for fielding to current and future forces. GPETE systems becomes more relevant for operators and maintainers of Army weapon systems as the platforms become increasingly dependent upon advanced technologies. GPETE acquisitions include the, the Optical Time Domain Reflectometer, the CM-523 Spectrum Analyzer, the AN/PRM-37 Radio Test Set (Replaces AN/PRM-36), and the AN/USM-783 Frequency Counter projects (Replaces AN/USM-459). The Optical Time Domain Reflectometer test fiber-optic cables used to connect tactical communication networks and radar systems. The CM-523 Spectrum Analyzer measures the magnitude of an input signal versus frequency, primarily to measure power of the spectrum of known and unknown signals, for communication, radar and missile weapon systems. The portable Radio Test Set is a lightweight test set used to conduct screening tests and system diagnosis on tactical radio systems. The Electronic Counter is used for precisely measuring signal frequency, frequency ratios and time intervals on the same or different signals. Army Acquisition Objectives (AAO): CALSETS: AN/GSM-286 - 44; AN/GSM-287 - 66; AN/GSM-439 - 38; AN/GSM-440 - 33; AN/GSM-705 - 27; AN/GSM-421A(V)2 - 27; AN/GSM-26(V)1 - 161; AN/GSM-26(V)2 - 38; AN/GSM-422 - 2; Secondary Reference Standards Set - 11 Communication Test Equipment: TS-4549 Radio Test Set -1996 GPETE: TS-4558 Optical Time Domain Reflectometer - 527; CM-523 Spectrum Analyzer - 1,129; AN/PRM-37 Radio Test Set (Portable)- 10,218; AN/USM Electronic Counter - 1971
Justification
Justification — Test Equipment Modernization (TEMOD)
FY 2026 base procurement dollars in the amount of $51.119 million will fund acquisition of Signal Generators, Torque Calibration System, Aircraft Weighing Scale Calibrators, TS-4549 Radio Test Sets, TS-4558 Optical Time Domain Reflectometer, CM-523 Spectrum Analyzer, AN/PRM-37, AN/USM-783. These procurements support various electronic test, measurement and diagnostic equipment and communications, missile, ground vehicle, and RADAR systems readiness. TEMOD uses multi-year Indefinite Delivery, Indefinite Quantity, Firm Fixed Price contracts that are competition based to reduce costs and accommodate changes in acquisition requirements. Capabilities provided by this equipment improve unit readiness levels and lower risks for Army personnel and equipment. In accordance with Section 1815 of the FY 2008 National Defense Authorization Act (P.L. 110-181), this item is necessary for use by the active and reserve components of the Armed Forces for homeland defense missions, domestic emergency responses, and providing military support to civil authorities.
