Government Test and Evaluation (Performance Testing)
Abstract
During the Rapid Prototyping phase, the Government executed performance testing on 16 prototypes (eight per contractor) and four BH&T assets (two per contractor). Performance testing during the Rapid Prototyping phase included Ballistic Hull & Turret (BH&T) survivability testing and Pre-Production Testing (PPT), which consisted of vehicle-level lethality, Reliability, Availability, and Maintainability (RAM), and electromagnetic compatibility and interference testing. PPT also contained an initial cybersecurity evaluation. BH&T testing provided Force Protection and vehicle-level survivability data while PPT provided vehicle-level automotive, lethality, and RAM performance data. The results of Rapid Prototyping performance testing will inform the LRIP down select and the 3Q FY 2022 Milestone C decision. During the LRIP phase, the Government will execute performance testing on 12 vehicles. Performance testing during the LRIP phase will include survivability testing and Production Quality Testing (PQT), which consists of vehicle-level lethality, RAM, electromagnetic compatibility and interference testing, and cybersecurity testing.
