Estimated value of $500,000.00. THIS IS NOT A REQUEST FOR COMPETITIVE PROPOSALS. The Naval Air Warfare Center Training Systems Division (NAWCTSD) intends to negotiate, on a sole source basis, a contract with Aechelon Technology for the procurement of the following: Increased software capability to support the HC-144B aircraft trainer on quantity of two (2) total Aechelon PC-NOVA Nucleus Image Generators (IGs) and two (2) Aechelon PC-NOVA Nucleus radar modules delivered to NAWCTSD in Orlando, Florida. The Aechelon PC-NOVA Nucleus Image Generator will provide Coast Guard aircrews with a high fidelity image generator for aircraft sensors that will include visual, infrared, electro-optic, and night vision device replication of various ship, aircraft, and human models. This hardware solution allows the trainee to leverage existing Minotaur software and train in an all-in-one low footprint environment while only utilizing a 4U rack space. The Aechelon PC-NOVA solution will also maintain compatibility with the Coast Guards flight station simulator used for pilot training. Additionally, Integration Support (IS) for the newly fielded IG devices radar modules and technical data is required. The preponderance of work will be accomplished at a classification level commensurate with the Poseidon P-8A, Triton BAMS, CH-47F, USSOCOM Combat Mission Simulators (CMS), US Navy MH-60S, MH-60R, USMC KC-130J, AH-1W Cobras, CH-53E CFTD, CH-53E WSTs, MV-22s Aircraft Programs.
