Government Test and Evaluation (Performance Testing)

Abstract

During the Rapid Prototyping phase, the Government will execute performance testing on 16 prototypes (eight per contractor) and four BH&T assets (two per contractor). Performance testing during the Rapid Prototyping phase will include Ballistic Hull & Turret (BH&T) survivability testing and Pre-Production Testing (PPT), which consists of vehicle-level lethality, Reliability, Availability, and Maintainability (RAM), and electromagnetic compatibility and interference testing. PPT will also contain an initial cybersecurity evaluation. BH&T testing will provide Force Protection and vehicle-level survivability data while PPT will provide vehicle-level automotive, lethality, and RAM performance data. The results of Rapid Prototyping performance testing will inform the planned FY 2022 Milestone C decision. During the LRIP phase, the Government will execute performance testing on 17 vehicles (inclusive of eight (8) prototype vehicles retrofitted to LRIP configuration). Performance testing during the LRIP phase will include survivability testing and Product Quality Testing (PQT), which consists of vehicle-level lethality, RAM, and electromagnetic compatibility and interference testing, and cybersecurity testing.
