The AN/TPQ-50 radar system is an L-band CTA radar designed to detect, track and provide Point of Origin (POO) and Point of Impact (POI) locations for hostile rocket, artillery, and mortar (RAM) fire. The AN/TPQ-50 radar system can be quickly set up, operated and relocated to support rapid deployment operations in hostile territory where specific threat axes are not defined. The system can be assembled and disassembled by two Soldiers and is capable of being mounted on a tripod or a M1152A1 High Mobility Multipurpose Wheeled Vehicle. The AN/TPQ-50 radar system provides continuous 360-degree azimuth coverage. It automatically detects and locates hostile weapon positions by tracking the airborne shell. After sufficient projectile track data is processed, the location of the weapon is transmitted to the Advanced Field Artillery Tactical Data System (AFATDS) network via the Single Channel Ground and Airborne Radio System (SINCGARS). The following summarizes the potential requirements: AN/TPQ-50 radars (CTA or MMR) including live fire testing of each system Onboard spares, over packed with the system Spares, commonly two-year supply Training including operator and maintainer classes Contractor technical assistance including program management support, contractor logistics support and data Field service representatives (FSRs) to support fielded systems and contractor support for quality assurance test (QAT) Software support Contractor repair and return support a. Contractor support services include: program management, training execution, systems engineering, testing, software engineering, integration, information assurance, security, cyber-security, system safety, quality assurance, and configuration management. b. Contractor support requirements include: repair and return activities, training, engineering field support, FSRs, logistics product updates (to include but not limited to: Interactive Electronic Technical Publications (IETP), Repair Parts Listing updates, and training material updates. Satisfying Performance Work Statement (PWS) requirements demands in-depth knowledge of the system’s technical performance requirements, software requirements, configuration requirements, components, performance characteristics, operation, maintenance, troubleshooting and repair procedures. Possession of the requisite knowledge in the system’s technical and performance characteristics, system operation, software, maintenance and repair, and how to train and instruct soldiers in the operation and maintenance of the system is critical to accomplishing the Government’s test and other program missions for international customers.
