The ALGL System must meet all threshold and key performance parameters of the government ORD including: dismounted man-packed System weight of 100 pounds or less; maximum effective range for point targets 1500 meters, for area targets 2000 meters; probability of hitting 80% of targets within 300 to 1000 meters within two minutes with 32 rounds of standard ammunition; fully operable within three minutes when dismounted from vehicle to ground mount; provide range and a ballistic solution within the field of view for standard and PPHE ammunition; target magnification three power or greater; and meet all performance requirements with standard and PPHE ammunition types. The ALGL System must be both operationally suitable and operationally effective for applications in worldwide combat environments. This contract action includes ALGL System production deliverables, data, spare parts, System integration and contractor maintenance support for ALGL Systems and subsystems. A five-year Indefinite Delivery/Indefinite Quantity (IDIQ) contract type is planned with a minimum of 200 ALGL Systems and a maximum of 1000. Contract award is expected on a FOB Destination basis.
