  6. Early InvolvementBCT • Supported Platform Performance Demonstration (PPD) - Dec 99 - Jan 00 • TRADOC “Market Survey” • Assessed 35 different vehicles • 5 foreign countries participated • Bid Sample (Source Selection) - Jun 00 • Assess key performance parameters of offerors • Limited to Infantry Carrier Vehicle assessment • Supports MS I/II and Early LRIP decision ATEC tested prototype systems & provided “near-real-time” data feedback to the SSEB using VISIONS database

  8. IAV Family of Vehicles • Infantry Carrier Vehicle (ICV) Variant Per Brigade* • Infantry Carrier Vehicle (ICV) 108 • Mortar Carrier Vehicle (MCV) 36 • Antitank Guided Missile Vehicle (ATGM) 12 • Reconnaissance Vehicle (RV) 54 • Fire Support Vehicle (FSV) 13 • Engineer Squad Vehicle (ESV) 9 • Commander’s Vehicle (CV) 39 • Medical Evacuation Vehicle (MEV) 20 • NBC Reconnaissance Vehicle (NBCRV) 4 • Mobile Gun System (MGS) Variant 36 Until contract award, it is not known which systems will be available for the IOTE next summer Bringing RFP in sync with Army POM,i.e. 5BCT to 6BCT raises vehicle procurement totals from 1911 to 2131 Total 331 *Per Solicitation Requirements

Current TRADOC Approved COIC -Load into, fly in C-130, unload ready to fight COI #4:Does the IAV family of vehicles support missions IAW the IBCT O&O? -Ratings on MTP tasks -Mission results -Host & Integrate C4ISR -Egress and Ingress Infantry and Engineer Interim Armored Vehicle Family COIC Effectiveness Suitability Survivability COI #2:Does the IAV meet transportability requirements for the IBCTIAW the IBCT O&O? COI# 3:Does the training support package support IAV platform training? COI #5:Does the IAV provide an adequate level of protection to occupants in operations IAW the IAV ORD? COI #1 Is the IAV suitable to support operations IAW the IBCT O&O? -New Equipment Training -Results of COI 1, 2 and 4 -1000 mean mile between failure -Rapid Refuel -Self-recovery/Tow -HFE/Safety -Soldier Survivability Assessment -USC Title 10 Live Fire: direct, overhead, and mines. - HEMP, NBC
