AI Contract Overview
The Training and Readiness Accelerator II (TReX II) has issued a Request for Solutions to develop two integrated training technologies: a Small Arms Orientation Device and a Short Training Environment Laser Training System (STE LTS) for indirect fire. The initiative aims to enhance Warfighter readiness by accelerating the delivery of prototypes that improve the effectiveness of military training and engagement capabilities. The small arms device must accurately simulate ballistic engagement against human targets up to 1000 meters and vehicle targets up to 5000 meters, operate reliably in low-light and no-light conditions, and maintain precision despite electromagnetic interference or metal surroundings. It must match the size and weight of existing laser transmitters, last at least 72 hours on a single battery charge, penetrate concealment and obscurants without requiring cover, support multiple round bursts, and require minimal recalibration. The indirect fire system must replicate real-world howitzer or mortar firing events by capturing digital gun data at the firing unit with minimal setup and teardown, while enabling forward observers to see near real-time simulated round impacts through devices such as binoculars or the Joint Engagement Targeting System to enable accurate adjustive fire. Prototyping will occur over 12-month periods with agreed-upon objectives between the vendor and the government, and all solutions must support the Department of Defense’s broader goals for modernizing military training systems. Submissions are due by July 9, 2026, with the solicitation managed by the Department of Defense through the Office in Orlando, Florida.

Full Description
This Special Notice is to advise interested members of the Training and Readiness Accelerator II (TReX II), as well as other interested members within the U.S. technology base, that a Request for Solutions (RFS) has been issued by Advanced Technology International (ATI) for Small Arms Orientation Device and STE LTS Indirect Fire.
The purpose of the Training and Readiness Accelerator II (TReX II) is to spur innovative development, demonstration, and expedited delivery of prototypes to increase Warfighter readiness via modeling, simulation, education/training, experimental validation, and military readiness focused projects. A consortium has been established to develop prototypes directly relevant to enhancing the mission effectiveness of military personnel and the supporting platforms, systems, components, or materials proposed to be acquired or developed by the Department of Defense (DOD), or to improvement of platforms, systems, components, or materials in use by the Armed Forces.
The end state is a weapon orientation device sufficiently accurate to support a ballistic model-based engagement for small arms. The device will penetrate concealment and obscurants but not cover) The device will have no more weight or size than the current laser small arms transmitter. The device will last at least 72 hours between battery changes. The prototyping will occur in 12-month Periods of Performance. The vendor and Government will agree on a set of objectives.
Desired Objectives
The weapon orientation device critical objectives include: accuracy to engage a human target at 1000 meters out to engaging a vehicle at 5000 meters; accuracy is not affected by training conditions such as metal or electromagnetic interference; easy to calibrate the system and infrequent re-calibrations required; ability to lead and elevate over a target; and ability to engage in low light or no-light conditions. In addition, the following are objectives providing trade space in the prototyping efforts: size and weight less than the current laser small arms transmitter, a 72-hour battery life, ability to engage through concealment and obscurants, and the ability to fire multiple round bursts.
Desired Objectives
At the firing unit (howitzer or mortar), the training device must collect all information needed to correctly replicate a firing event in the instrumentation system. The device must require minimal setup and tear down effort on the part of the unit.
The instrumentation system requires a tap into the digital gun data. The instrumentation system can use gun data to replicate indirect fire effects in a training event.
The forward observer must see the “notional” round impact near real time and with sufficient accuracy allowing the forward observer to adjust round impact. The forward observer may use different devices such as binoculars or Joint Engagement Targeting System (JETS).
