Ship to Shore Connectors Contract Design

Abstract

Note: Funding for this project unit effort is realigned to PE 0605220N in FY15 and out. Ship to Shore Connector (SSC) - This project provides the Preliminary and Contract design and Class test efforts for the SSC Program. The SSC program provides the capability to rapidly move assault forces with the littoral operational environment to accomplish Unified Command Plan (UCP) missions and ensures the Joint Force Commander's (JFCDR's) ability to conduct amphibious operations and operate over the high water mark, including movement over ice, mud, rivers, swamps and marshes. SSC provides the functional replacement for the LCAC crafts, which begin reaching extended service life in 2015. This project provided for the FY12 and prior tasks that supported the Systems Development and technical data package required for the solicitation for detail design, construction and test of the initial article. For FY13 and beyond, this project will provide for Class Test and Evaluation of components and systems, as well as all programmatic effort and support activities necessary for the development and execution of Class T&E plans and programs. The Test and Training craft (Craft 100) and R&D cost for Craft 101 are funded in RDT&E Project 3137, which realigns from PE 0604567N to PE 0605220N in FY15 and out.
